Answer:
The least squares method results in values of the y-intercept and the slope, that minimizes the sum of the squared deviations between the observed (actual) value and the fitted value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of least squares works under these assumptions
- The best fit for a data collection is a function (sometimes called curve).
- This function, is such that allows the minimal sum of difference between each observation and the expected value.
- The expected values are calculated using the fitting function.
- The difference between the observation, and the expecte value is know as least square error.
Answer:
The average rate of change is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change from x=a to x=b of f(x) is given by;

We want to find the average rate of change of the function represented in the table from x=-2 to x=2.

From the table f(-2)=25 and f(2)=9
The average rate of change from x=-2 to x=2 is

Answer:
- Tyler
- 2 hundredths of a mile
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is a little difficult to read, but we note that there are 6 grid lines between times that are 2 minutes apart. So, each grid line stands for 2/6 = 1/3 minute.
At the 1-mile mark, the graph crosses 1 grid line above 8 minutes, indicating it takes Tyler 8 1/3 minutes to run 1 mile.
Then in 10 minutes, Tyler will run ...
distance = speed · time = 1 mile/(8 1/3 min) · 10 min
= 1/(25/3)·10 = 10·3/25 = 30/25 = 1.2 . . . . miles
__
The equation tells you that Elena runs each mile in 8.5 minutes. To see how far she runs in 10 minutes, we can solve ...
10 = 8.5x
x = 10/8.5 ≈ 1.18 . . . . miles
So, Tyler runs farther in 10 minutes by a distance of ...
1.20 -1.18 = 0.02 . . . . miles
If it is a slope formula I believe it is y= 4x-24
It’s a I think but I’m not sure
