The function and the first value stated for x are confusing.
Doing some research, I found that the problem is to evaluate the function

for x = - 1 and x 2.
The solution is:
1) For x = - 1

2) For x = 2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
So, this question involves you to play around with the numbers and the operations a bit. I've come up with a solution, but perhaps there are others as well.
So, we have:

So, what we can do is, for instance, multiply 4 and 2. Subtract that into 11. And then add the difference to 7. Thus:

This is a true number sentence. Let's do it to make sure.
First, do the operations inside the parentheses.
Multiplication comes first, so multiply:

Again, do the parentheses first. Subtract:

Now add:

So our answer is correct :)

Answer:
a line that might best estimate the data and be used for predicting values.
Choice B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
A line of fit might be defined as;
a line that might best estimate the data and be used for predicting values.
This line connects most of the data points thus minimizing the squared residuals of the regression.
I hope this helps...
Your reasoning is correct, but you made a mistake with your long division.
1248/98 = 12 remainder 72
__12_
98 | 1248
- 98
--------
268
-196
--------
72
Final Answer: 13 is minimum number of showings
