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:
<u> x = 16</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attched figure
We should know that, one of the properties of the rhombus is the diagonals bisect the angles of the rhombus.
Given:
m∠ABC = 84 and m∠ABE = 3x − 6
So, m∠ABE = 0.5 * m∠ABC = 0.5 * 84 = 42
∴ 3x - 6 = 42
Solve for x
3x = 42 + 6 = 48
x = 48/3 = 16
<u>∴ x = 16</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal.
VT = SR
8x- 17 = 15 {Add 17 to both sides}
8x = 15 + 17
8x = 32 {divide both sides by 8}
x = 32/8
x = 4
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal.
∠V = ∠S = 60°
∠W = ∠U = 90°
∠T = ∠R = 2y + 20
In Δ VUT,
∠V + ∠U + ∠T = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}
60 + 90 + 2y + 20 = 180
2y + 170 = 180
2y = 180- 170
2y = 10
y = 10/2
y = 5
