Answer:
no problem sure!
Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant to say a^3. If so, then
a^3 = a*a*a
a^3 = 5*5*5
a^3 = 125
Part A: 3x + 15 = 5x - 25
Part B: x = 20
Direct variation is of the form y=kx. We are given the point (8, -4) so we can solve for k, the constant of variation...
-4=8k, divide both sides by 8
-4/8=k
k=-0.5, so our equation is:
y=-0.5x,
<span>A. 0.1
The residual is the difference between the observed value and the predicted value for a data point. You obtain it by subtracting the predicted value from the observed value. So the predicted value is:
y = -0.2x + 1.9
y = -0.2*5 + 1.9
y = -1 + 1.9
y = 0.9
Therefore the residual is:
r = 1 - 0.9
r = 0.1
And the value of 0.1 matches option "A".</span>
