F=60, s=60/2=30

(60-x)/(30-x)=4

60-x=120-4x

60+3x=120

3x=60

x=20  

s=30-x

s=30-20

s=10

So the boy was 10 years old when his father was four times his age.

Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot. A 4-column table with 5 rows. The first
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Solution-

We know that,

Residual value = Given value - Predicted value

The table for residual values is shown below,

Plotting a graph, by taking the residual values on ordinate and values of given x on abscissa, a random pattern is obtained where the points are evenly distributed about x-axis.

We know that,

If the points in a residual plot are randomly dispersed around the horizontal or x-axis, a linear regression model is appropriate for the data. Otherwise, a non-linear model is more appropriate.

As, in this case the points are distributed randomly around x-axis, so the residual plot show that the line of regression is best fit for the data set.

Hope this helps!

An account is opened with an initial balance of $950 and a simple annual interest rate of 1.6%. What is the balance after 5 year
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
The answer is $1,026.

Solving: Use Simple interest formula, I=Prt.

Make the rate into a decimal (1.6% -> 0.016)

plug in the numbers into the formula. 950 x 0.016 x 5 = 76$.

76$ will be our interest, now to find the balance we would have to add the the starting money (950) with our interest (76$), resulting in our answer of $1,026 after 5 years.
