Answer:
Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank
Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the maxima or minima of a function, we have to take the first derivative and then put it equal to zero to find the critical values.
Given function is:

Taking first derivative

Now the first derivative has to be put equal to zero to find the critical value

The function has only one critical value which is 5.
Taking 2nd derivative


As the value of 2nd derivative is positive for the critical value 5, this means that the function has a minimum value at x = 5
The value can be found out by putting x=5 in the function

Hence,
<u>The function y = x 2 - 10x + 31 has a minimum value of 6</u>
Hence,
Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank
Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.
Answer:
A person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do 30.4 sit ups.
Step-by-step explanation:
The regression equation is used to predict or estimate the value of the response (or dependent) variables using the information about the explanatory (or predictor) variables.
The general form of a regression equation is:

Here,
<em>y</em> = dependent variable
<em>x</em> = independent variable
<em>a</em> = intercept
<em>b</em> = slope
The regression equation representing the relationship between hours of TV watched per day (<em>x</em>) and number of sit ups a person can do (<em>y</em>) is:

Compute the number of sit ups a person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do as follows:


Thus, a person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do 30.4 sit ups.

Answer:
b= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3b-1=b-3
2b - 1 = -3
<u>2</u>b = -2
= -1
