Jack plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of his city and the number of ice cream cones he s

old daily: Main title on graph is Ice Cream Cone Sale. Graph shows 0 to 30 on x axis at increments of 5 and 0 to 60 on y axis at increments of 10. The label on the x axis is Temperature in degree C, and the label on the y axis is Number of Ice Cream Cones Sold. Dots are made at the ordered pairs 0, 5 and 5, 15 and 7.5, 15 and 10, 24 and 10, 28 and 12, 32 and 12.5, 25 and 12.5, 30 and 15, 35 and 15, 40 and 17.5, 35 and 20, 45 and 22.5, 36 and 23, 46 and 25, 55 and 27.5, 60. Part A: In your own words, describe the relationship between the temperature of the city and the number of ice cream cones sold. (5 points) Part B: Describe how you can make the line of best fit. Write the approximate slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit. Show your work, including the points that you use to calculate slope and y-intercept. (5 points)

Answer:

(a) The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

(b)

y = 2x + 5 --- equation

y = 5 --- y intercept

m = 2 --- slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Solving (a): The relationship between the variables

From the attached graph, the dots on the graph increases towards up-right direction. This implies that there is a positive correlation between the variables.

In other words;

The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

Solving (b): The line of best fit

First, we draw a line through the points (the line should have almost equal points on both sides; see attachment 2).

From (2), we select any 2 points on the line:

(x_1,y_1) = (15,35)

(x_2,y_2) = (0,5)

The slope (m) is:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{5-35}{0-15}

m = \frac{-30}{-15}

m = 2

So, the line of best fit is:

y = m(x - x_1) + y_1

Substitute known values:

y = 2(x - 0) + 5

y = 2(x) + 5

y = 2x + 5

The y-intercept is when x=0

So, we have:

y = 2*0 + 5

y = 0 + 5

y = 5

The answer is b. The Remainder<span> Theorem says that if a polynomial </span>f(x<span>) is divided by </span>x<span> – k, then </span>the remainder<span> is </span>f(k). k=3 in our case, so the remainder is simply f(3). Plug in x=3 into <span>f(x) = 7x4 + 12x3 + 6x2 - 5x + 16. f(x)=946. So the answer is b.</span>

100 POINTS PLZ HELP

An ordered pair such as (3,-1), is a shorthand way of writing two variables, such as x = 3 and y = -1. The order of the numbers in the pair is important: x always comes before y.

An ordered pair is a composition of the x coordinate (abscissa) and the y coordinate (ordinate), having two values written in a fixed order within parentheses.

It helps to locate a point on the Cartesian plane for better visual comprehension.

The numeric values in an ordered pair can be integers or fractions.

Ordered Pair = (x,y)

Where, x = abscissa, the distance measure of a point from the primary axis “x”

And, y = ordinate, the distance measure of a point from the secondary axis “y”

In the Cartesian plane, we define a two-dimensional space with two perpendicular reference lines, namely x-axis and y-axis. The point where the two lines meet at “0” is the origin.
