Answer:

residual cost = $24.57

Step-by-step explanation:

The residual is the difference between the observed value of y and the predicted value of y. The least square regression equation was used to predict cost in dollars per barrel of jet fuel  from the cost , in dollars ,per barrel of crude oil. The residual value is the difference between the observed or measured value and the predicted value of  the regression model . The predicted value is gotten from the regression equation.

y = 2 + 6/7 x

where

x = cost of a barrel of crude oil

x = $60

y = 2 + 6/7 × 60

y = 2 + 360/7

y = 2 + 51.4285714286

y = 53.4285714286

y = $53. 43

predicted cost = $53. 43

Measured cost  = $78

residual = observed value - predicted value

residual = 78 - 53.43

residual cost = $24.57

Write the equation of the quadratic whose Vertex is at ( −4,−5) and passes through the point (−3, −7)
mina [271]

To Find :

The equation of the quadratic whose Vertex is at ( −4,−5) and passes through the point (−3, −7).

Solution :

A quadratic equation in vertex form is given by :

y = a(x-h)^2 + k  

( Here, h, k is the vertex )

y = a(x-(-4))² + (-5)

y = a(x+4)² - 5

Now, putting (-3,-7) in above equation:

-7 = a( -3 + 4 )² - 5

a(1)² = -2

a = -2

Therefore, the equation of the quadratic is y = -2(x+4)² - 5 .
