How do you factor this in the form (x+b)(x+c)

faust18 [17]

So you have your polynomial. To factor this out, you need to find the factors of -45 that will add up to 3. These two factors would be -5 and 8. So, you have factored your polynomial! (x-5)(x+8). If you are still unsure, simply use the FOIL method to check and see if you get the same polynomial back. Hope this helps!

Why don't we measure spread about the mean by simply averaging x − x , the deviations of individual data values from their mean?

skad [1K]

Answer:

Because this spread will add up to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean defines the center of the data. Some values are below this center and some values are above this center.

For the values which are below the center (i.e. less than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in negative numbers.

For the values which are above the center(i.e. greater than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in positive numbers.

When these negative and positive numbers are summed together, as it is, they cancel out each other, leaving an answer equal to zero, which would be meaningless. As a spread of 0 would mean all data values are the same, when infact they aren't.

To avoid this, the difference of mean from the data value is squared, so that we can get all positive values, and then these values are added up together to calculate the spread of the data.

Conclusion:

The average of deviations of individual data from the mean will result in answer equal to zero, as a result they are squared first before finding the average.

A regression analysis of 117 homes for sale produced the following model, where price is in thousands of dollars and size in squ

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A) m = 0.062

B) 202.87 thousand dollars

C) Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars. $6000 is called the error term.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Price = 47.87+0.062(size)

The above equation is regression equation where price is in thousand dollars and size in square feet.

Let p be the prize and s be the size.

$p(s) = 47.87 + 0.062s$

Comparing it to linear equation, we have,

$y= mx + c$

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

m = 0.062

c = 47.87

A) slope of the line

The slope of line tells the rate of change. Thus, it tells the change in price if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

The price of house increases by 0.062 thousand dollars if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

B) Price of house

We are given s = 2500. Putting this value in the equation.

$p(2500) = 47.87 + 0.062(2500) =202.87$

Thus, the price of a 2500 square feet house is 202.87 thousand dollars.

C) We are given s = 1100

Putting the value in the equation:

$p(1100) = 47.87 + 0.062(1100) =116.07$

Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars

Asking price =

$116.07 - 6 = 110.07$

The buyer is asking for 110.07 thousand dollars.

$6000 is called the error term.
