By visual inspection determine the best-fitting regression model for the data plot below

Pie

Answer:

Exponential

Step-by-step explanation:

By visual inspection the graph generated by the points plotted is an exponential graph as the graph curves upward. The graph is also continous and differs from either a decreasing or increasing Linear graph, which shows a straight best of fit pattern. Hence, the graph most closely represents an exponential graph from visual examination.

storchak [24]

Answer:

34 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Nathan read a total of 630 pages over 30 hours.

We need to find times of reading will Nathan have to do this week in order to have read a total of 714 pages.

1 page can be read in $\dfrac{30}{630}\ \text{hours}$

To read 714 pages, it will take

$\dfrac{30}{630}\times 714\ \text{hours}\\\\=34\ \text{hours}$

Hence, it will take 34 hours to read 714 pages.

When you roll a standard number cube once, what is the probability of rolling a number divisible by 3?

sashaice [31]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

On a standard cube there are the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Only 2 are divisible by 3, that is 3 and 6, hence

P(divisible by 3 ) = $\frac{2}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$

A scale drawing of a building needs to be made using the scale 1 in equals = 220 ft. How tall will the building in the scale dra

Sonja [21]

You divide 1540 by 220 to get 7. We do this because we want to find how many times 220 can go in 1540 which shows the amount of ft tall the scale will be. We can check it by doing 7 × 220 which is 1,540.

The building will be 7 ft tall in the scale.
