Ok, we know the angle is 3π/4, and that y-coordinate is 1, hmm what's "x"?
By "slope" I assume you mean slope of the tangent line to the parabola.
For any given value of <em>x</em>, the slope of the tangent to the parabola is equal to the derivative of <em>y</em> :
The slope at <em>x</em> = 1 is 5:
The slope at <em>x</em> = -1 is -11:
We can already solve for <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> :
Finally, the parabola passes through the point (2, 18); that is, the quadratic takes on a value of 18 when <em>x</em> = 2:
So the parabola has equation
Answer:
0.67; The least-squares regression line, given by ŷ = 3.95 + 0.67x, is not a good fit for the data.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot the data in a spreadsheet and insert a trendline. The line of best fit is y = 0.67x + 3.95. The r² value is 0.67.
