A distributor of cosmetics has sales representatives in various metropolitan areas all over the country. They have collected dat

a over the past year looking for a relationship between the number of months of Experience a sales representative has in cosmetic sales (X), and the monthly sales volume (Y, in thousands of dollars) for the sales representative in a given month. The data was gathered from representatives with 0 - 60 months experience. A scatterplot of the data showed a positive linear relationship, and a simple regression model was determined. The results are given by:___________.

Answer:

The results are given by:___________.

the equation, y = ax+b.

where a = the slope of the line and b is the intercept or the value of Y when X = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple linear regression is a model for estimating the relationship that exists between an independent variable and a dependent variable.  The model uses a straight line for two quantitative variables.  With a scatter graph, the line of best fit is given as the equation, y = bX + a.  This equation determines the values of b and a for a dataset of two variables.  It can also be used to estimate the value of Y for a given value of X.

Gerry thinks that the points (4,2) and (−1,4) form a line perpendicular to a line with slope 4. Do you agree? Why
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is these lines are not perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (4, 2)

B (-1, 4)

slope = m = 4

Perpendicular lines mean that these lines cross and form an angle of 90°. Also, the slope of perpendicular lines is negative reciprocals.

Process

1.- Find the slope of the second line and compare it to the slope given.

slope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Substitution

slope = \frac{4 - 2}{-1 - 4}

Simplification and result

slope = \frac{-2}{5}

-2/5 is not a negative reciprocal of 4, so these lines are not perpendicular.

Solve by factoring:<br> 1) x² + 6x + 8 = 0
Serhud [2]

Answer:

x=-4  x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x + 8 = 0

x² +2x+4x + 8 = 0

x(x+2)+4(x+2)=0

(x+4)(x+2)

x=-4  x=-2
