Answer:

The closest to the output when the input is approximately 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The given (x, y) coordinates are;

The line of best fit is

x, 0, 3, 6, 6, 8, 10, 11

y, -2, 7, 16, 15, 21, 28, 31

The line of best fit can be obtained from the scatter plot of the given data from where a linear pattern is apparent

A linear line of best fit is a trend line that gives an overall cumulative minimum distance of all the points from the line

The method for constructing a line of best fit includes;

1) The least Squares Method

2) The method of linear regression

3) Construction of line of best fit

a) The area method

b) The dividing method

The least squares equation is given as follows;

\hat y = a + b·x

b = \dfrac{\Sigma (x_i - \overline x) \cdot (y_i - \overline y)}{\Sigma (x_i - \overline x)^2 }

From MS Excel, we have;

{\Sigma (x_i - \overline x) \cdot (y_i - \overline y)}{ } = 266.8571

{\Sigma (x_i - \overline x)^2 } = 89.42857

∴ b = 266.8571/89.42857 ≈ 2.984

a =\overline y- b \cdot \overline x

From MS Excel, with the given data, we get;

\overline y = 16.57143

\overline x = 6.285714

Therefore;

a = 16.57143 - 2.984 × 6.285714 = -2.185

Therefore, we get the following regression equation;

\hat y = -2.185 + 2.9·x

Where;

x = The input

\hat y = The output

Therefore, when x = 5, we get;

\hat y = -2.185 + 2.9 × 5 = 12.315

Therefore, the closest to the output when the input is 5, y ≈ 12

Is there enough information to prove P is parallel to Q if so state the theorem or postulate?
stira [4]
Yes there is. i do not know the theorem but I know it's rule. If 2 lines intersect the same line, and they have an equal angle in the same quadrant then they are parallel. This is because their all of their angles would be equal and they are basically the same line but shifted over

An item that originally cost $12 is marked down 30%. What is the price of the item after the markdown? Show work please
Anettt [7]

First we have to determine 30% of 12.

(30×12)÷100=3.6 so 3.6 is 30% of 12.

12 - 3.6= 8.4

Your answer is 8.4

Answer:

8 chairs

Good Info:

You have 5 quarts of paint

It takes 5/8 quarts for 1 chair

Step-by-step explanation:

So, do 5 divided by 5/8=8

To check this, do 5 times 5/8.

Multiples of 5/8:

5/8

1 2/8 or 1 1/4

1 7/8

2 4/8 or 1 2/4 or 1 1/2

3 1/8

3 6/8 or 3 3/4
