PLEASE HELP! I have been working on this IXL for over 30 minutes and I keep getting the questions wrong. I am not good at graphi
ng and I am really frustrated. Can someone please help?
1 answer:
The equations are in slope intercept form which is
y = mx+b
m is the slope of the equation. slope is rise/ run meaning that if a slope is 2, you can also say 2/1. this means you go up 2 squares and to the right 1 point. if the slope is negative, it looks like a downhill and the line falls left to right. if the slope is positive, it looks like uphill and the line falls right to left.
the x is what the slope is multiplied by but isn’t significant in graphing because it’s always just x
the b represents the y intercept. the y axis is the vertical line on the graph. for example if b = 7, then the line goes through 7 on the graph and basically tells us that (0,7) is a point on the line.
for y= x + 7, the slope is 1. that equation is just saying y= 1x+7 but the one is unnecessary usually because it’s implied that the x means 1x

Answer:
a) Positive Correlation
b) 69.5
c) Base advertisement fee
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Relationship between money spent on advertising and items sold
If we spent greater amount of money on advertisement, thus, we create more awareness and thus, the number of item sold increases.
Similarly, if less money is spent on advertisement, the number of items sold will be less.
Thus, the money spent on advertisement varies directly with the number of items sold.
Thus, they have a positive relationship or a positive correlation.
b) Money spent in advertising to sell 30 items
We are given the function:
We put x = 30
Thus, the score predicted by model is 69.5 units.
c) Interpretation of 21.5
Comparing the equation to a general linear equation, we get
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
y-intercept tells us the value of function when x is zero.
Thus, for the given scenario it will tell about the basic advertisement fee to be paid if we want to sell 0 products.
Comparing we get,
c = 21.5
Interpretation:
Thus, 21.5 units is the basic amount of advertisement fee that needed to be paid( the number of items sold is 0)
