Part (A)

The input variable is the shoe size because it is along the horizontal axis, or x axis. It's not clear what the units for the shoe size are, but it's possible the units are in inches.

The output variable is the y value, which in this case is the height. The units for the height is in inches.

====================================================

Part (B)

We have a positive trend. We determine this visually by noting the regression line, or trend line, is going upward as we move from left to right.

Algebraically, the equation for the trend line has a positive slope, which leads to a positive trend.

A positive trend is where x and y increase together. As shoe size goes up, height goes up as well.

While not all the points are on the line, there is a tendency for the points to go uphill as we move from left to right.

As for the strength of the correlation, that part is subjective. If we knew the correlation coefficient r, then we could be more certain; however, we don't know this value. So instead we have to eyeball the given graph and give an estimate. Based on the graph, I'd say there's a moderate positive correlation going on. It's somewhere in the middle of weak and strong positive correlation because the data points are somewhat scattered randomly, but they trend upward nonetheless.

====================================================

Part (C)

The rate of change is the slope. The slope is the coefficient of the independent variable x. In this problem, the slope is 1.728

So the rate of change is 1.728 inches per shoe size.

In other words, as the shoe size increases by 1 unit (1 inch perhaps?), the height will increase by roughly 1.728 inches.

---------------------------------------------------------

Extra info:

The equation

Height = 51.46 + 1.728(Shoe Size)

is the same as

y = 51.46 + 1.728x

where x is the shoe size and y is the height

We can rearrange that into

y = 1.728x + 51.46

So that it matches with the familiar y = mx+b slope intercept form. This is optional.

What is the value of x??
umka21 [38]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle shown there is an example of a vertical angle. An opposite angle formed by intercecting lines. They are always congruent, so to solve this, you must set them equal to eachother. you can gather the equation 4x-5=59. From there, you just solve it like you would any two step equation.

Hector serves ice cream at a local ice cream shop. he sells 19 ice cream cones on sunday,27 ice cream cones on sunday, and 153ic
labwork [276]
So, what you want to do here is subtract the ice cream sold on the weekend from the ice cream that was sold during the rest of the week.
He sold 19 on Saturday and 27 on Sunday, so these numbers need to be subracted from your total for the week.

(Total Sold) - [(Amount sold Saturday) + (Amount sold Sunday)] = (Amount sold on weekdays)

153 - (19 + 27) = X
153 - 46 = X
107 = X
