Answer:
-5 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
3^(x-1) = 9^(x+2)
Replace 9 with 3^2
3^(x-1) = 3^2^(x+2)
We know that a power to a power means the powers are multiplied
a^b^c = a^(b*c)
3^(x-1) = 3^(2x+2)
When the bases are the same, the powers have to be the same
x-1 = 2x+4
Subtract x from each side
x-x-1 =2x-x+4
-1 =x+4
Subtract 4 from each side
-1-4 =x+4-4
-1-4 = x
-5 =x
Set the argument (x+1) equal to zero.
C The smaller the number in an inequality is always located to the left of the number on the horizontal line!!
<em>c. the least squares method. </em>
Regression equation:
In simple linear regression, the predicted value of the dependent variable is given by the equation = b0 + b1x. The values of b0 and b1 are calculated from the data so that the line = b0 + b1X minimizes the total sum of squared errors (error is the difference between the predicted value and the actual value of y).
Least squares method:
The least squares method is a statistical procedure to find the best fit for a set of data points by minimizing the sum of the offsets or residuals of points from the plotted curve.

1/2 I think. Even though you already got heads 10 times you still have a 1/2 chance to get it again.
