The answer would be 17 because 59 - 30 = 29 and 29 - 12 =17
The plus-minus sign represents that there are two possible outcomes.
In this case, we have

. When we branch out the possibilities we got 2 values:

and

Those are the roots of this equation. When they ask their product, they want you to multiply both numbers.
When we multiply them:

When we FOIL the we get:

Simplify:


So the product of the two roots of this equation is 6.
The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.
Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories) means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.
Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
Answer:
Answer choice A
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first letter, there are 26 options, as there are for the second and third letter. For each of the three numbers, there are 10 digits to choose from. Therefore, 26*26*26*10*10*10=17,576,000, or answer choice A. Hope this helps!
