Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=14

y=14-x

2x+3y=32, using y=14-x we have

2x+3(14-x)=32

2x+42-3x=32

-x+42=32

-x=-10

x=10, and since y=14-x

y=14-10=4

So Amelia made 10 two-pointers and 4 three-pointers.

Can someone explain, i'm literally sweating trying to figure it out

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

54 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

So a fun fact is that the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite two interior angles (at least within triangles).

Given this, set these values equal to each other to get the value of a.

d = a + b

2a = (a+10)+44

2a = a + 54

a = 54

The measure of the exterior angle is 54 degrees.

The table shows a company’s profit based on the number of pounds of food produced.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$5,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae used,

$a=\dfrac{(\sum x^2y\sum xx)-(\sum xy\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$b=\dfrac{(\sum xy\sum x^2x^2)-(\sum x^2y\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$c=\dfrac{\sum y}{n}-b\frac{\sum x}{n}-a\frac{\sum x^2}{n}$

Where,

$\sum xx=\sum x^2-\dfrac{(\sum x)^2}{n}$

$\sum xy=\sum xy-\dfrac{\sum x\sum y}{n}$

$\sum xx^2=\sum x^3-\dfrac{\sum x\sum x^2}{n}$

$\sum x^2y=\sum x^2y-\dfrac{\sum x^2\sum y}{n}$

$\sum x^2x^2=\sum x^4-\dfrac{(\sum x^2)^2}{n}$

Putting the values from the table, we get the best fit line as,

$y= -0.0817x^2 + 102.24x - 20421$

As we want to calculate the profit at 350 pounds, so putting x=350, we get

$y= -0.0817(350)^2 + 102.24(350) - 20421=\$5354.75$
