Let us say the original price of taco before tip was x dollars.
Percentage of tip given =25 %
Amount of tip given = $2
Now we can say that 25 % of total amount = 2 dollars.
Making an equation,
Now we have to solve for x, so dividing both sides by 0.25,
x= 8
Answer : The original price of tacos before tip was $8.
The best answer from the options that proves that the residual plot shows that the line of best fit is appropriate for the data is: ( Statement 1 ) Yes, because the points have no clear pattern
X Given Predicted Residual value
1 3.5 4.06 -0.56
2 2.3 2.09 0.21
3 1.1 0.12 0.98
4 2.2 -1.85 4.05
5 -4.1 -3.82 -0.28
The residual value is calculated as follows using this formula: ( Given - predicted )
1) ( 3.5 - 4.06 ) = -0.56
2) ( 2.3 - 2.09 ) = 0.21
3) ( 1.1 - 0.12 ) = 0.98
4) (2.2 - (-1.85) = 4.05
5) ( -4.1 - (-3.82) = -0.28
Residual values are the difference between the given values and the predicted values in a given data set and the residual plot is used to represent these values .
attached below is the residual plot of the data set
hence we can conclude from the residual plot attached below that the line of best fit is appropriate for the data because the points have no clear pattern ( i.e. scattered )
