Answer:

Start with what we know:

4(2x-3) = 28

Now we do rainbow property aka distributive property:

4*2x=8x

4*-3=-12

now we have:

8x - 12 = 28

we have to get 8x alone:

we will add 12 to both sides:

8x= 40

now we have to get x alone:

8x/8=x

40/8=5

now we put that into a equation:

x=5

use a graphing calculator or other technology to answer the question which quadratic regression equation best fits the data set

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Option C is the correct option.

In other words, the quadratic regression $y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+1369.14\:$ best fits the data set, as it gets very much close to the data values given in the data table.

The graph of the equation $y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+1369.14\:$ is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

x y

3 470

4 416

5 403

Analyzing Option A:

Considering the equation

$y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2+379.14\left(x\right)-1369.14\:$

From (3, 470), putting x = 3

$y=32.86\:\left(3\right)^2+379.14\left(3\right)-1369.14\:$

$y=64.02$

From (4, 470), putting x = 4

$y=32.86\:\left(4\right)^2+379.14\left(4\right)-1369.14\:\:$

$y=673.18$

From (5, 403), putting x = 5

$y=32.86\:\left(5\right)^2+379.14\left(5\right)-1369.14\:$

$y=1348.06$

Analyzing Option B:

$y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)$

From (3, 470), putting x = 3

$y=32.86\:\left(3\right)^2-379.14\left(3\right)$

$y=-841.68$

From (4, 470), putting x = 4

$y=32.86\:\left(4\right)^2-379.14\left(4\right)$

$\:y=-990.8$

From (5, 403), putting x = 5

$y=32.86\:\left(5\right)^2-379.14\left(5\right)$

$\:y=-1074.2$

Analyzing Option C:

Considering the equation

$y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+1369.14\:$

From (3, 470), putting x = 3

$y=32.86\:\left(3\right)^2-379.14\left(3\right)+1369.14\:$

$y=527.46$

So, the approximately result is (3, 527)

From (4, 470), putting x = 4

$y=32.86\:\left(4\right)^2-379.14\left(4\right)+1369.14\:$

$y=378.34$

So, the approximately result is (4, 378)

From (5, 403), putting x = 5

$y=32.86\:\left(5\right)^2-379.14\left(5\right)+1369.14\:\:\:$

$y=294.94$

So, the approximately result is (5, 295)

Analyzing Option D:

Considering the equation

$y=-1369.14\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+32.86$

From (3, 470), putting x = 3

$y=-1369.14\:\left(3\right)^2-379.14\left(3\right)+32.86\:\:$

$y=-13426.82$

From (4, 470), putting x = 4

$y=-1369.14\:\left(4\right)^2-379.14\left(4\right)+32.86$

$y=-23389.94$

From (5, 403), putting x = 5

$y=-1369.14\:\left(5\right)^2-379.14\left(5\right)+32.86\:\:$

$y=-36091.34$

Therefore, from the above calculations and analysis, we conclude that Option C is the correct option.

In other words, the quadratic regression $y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+1369.14\:$ best fits the data set, as it gets very much close to the data values given in the data table.

The graph of the equation $y=32.86\:\left(x\right)^2-379.14\left(x\right)+1369.14\:$ is also attached.

Find two consecutive integers whos sum is 53

11111nata11111 [884]

Use the final digit to get the answer:

The final digit is 3, therefore the only two consecutive numbers that add and end in 3 is 6 and 7.

Using this logic, the only two numbers are 26 and 27
