Answer: x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 2x - 15 = 0

x² + 3x - 5x - 15 = 0

x(x + 3) - 5(x + 3) = 0

Therefore, x + 3 = 0

x = 0 - 3 = -3

Also, x - 5 = 0

x = 0 + 5 = 5

Therefore, the solutions to x² - 2x - 15 = 0 is x = -3 and x = 5. Therefore, the correct option is D.

vredina [299]

Answer: c) About 16% of the variation in value of the car is explained by a linear relationship with the age of the car.

e) The correlation coefficient, r, is 0.397.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Coefficient of determination (r²) between two variables, age of car (x) and value of car (y) = 0.158

Correlation of determination (r²) of 0.158 = (0.158 × 100% = 15.8% of the variation between the two variables can be explained by the regression line). Hence, about 16% of the variation between age and value of car can be explained by the linear relationship.

Coefficient of correlation (r) = sqrt(r²) = sqrt(0.158) = 0.397

What is 4(2x-1)= -2(3x+16)
adoni [48]
Divide both sides by -2
-2(2x-1)=3x+16
distribute
-4x+2=3x+16
add 4x to both sides
2=7x+16
minus 16 from both sides
-14=7x
divide both sides by 7
-2=x
