From the excel plotting, we see that the least square regression equation is given by:
m=(7.25-2.65)/(2009-1978)
m=0.15
thus the equation will be:
0.15(x-0)=y-2.65
y=0.15x-2.65
b] Using the equation we can approximate the hourly wage in 2025 as follows:
x=(2025-1978)=47
y=0.15(47)-2.65
y=7.05-2.65
y=4.4
The plot is as shown in the figure:

F(2) means to plug in 2 where there is a x.
f(2) = 3*
![2^{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%202%5E%7B4%7D%20)
-5
![2^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%202%5E%7B2%7D%20)
+2-23
f(2) = 48-20-21 = 7
f(2) = 7
Hope that helps
6. One variable only so pretty straightforward.
length-x+4
width-x
x+x+4=80
2x=76
x=38
x+4=42
answer: length 42cm and width 38cm
7. Another money problem!
n-# of nickels
q-# of quarters
n=3+q
0.05n+0.25q=2.85
Substitution works like a charm!
0.05(3+q)+0.25q=2.85
0.15+0.05q+0.25q=2.85
0.3q=2.7
q=9
n=3+q
n=3+9
n=12
answer: 9 nickels and 12 quarters
8. One variable situation again.
Ann's money-2b+9
Betty's money-b
b+2b+9=60
3b=51
b=17
2b+9=43
answer: Ann has $43 and Betty has $17.
9. # of red m&m's-x+1
# of blue m&m's-x
x+1+x=13
x=6
x+1=7
answer: 6 blue and 7 red m&m's
10. a-number of adult tickets
s-number of student tickets
a+s=785 ----> a=785-s
5a+2s=3280
5(785-s)+2s=3280
-3s=-645
s=215
a+s=785
a+215=785
a=570
answer: 215 children tickets and 570 adult tickets
