Answer:
The student is expected to spend <em>15.4 hours </em>doing homework
Step-by-step explanation:
The scattered plot shows there is a close correlation between the variables. A line of best fit will go through the 'center' of the points. Since we are not required to find an exact line, we'll draw it in red color as shown below
To know the equation of that line, we must take two clear points of it from the graph. We'll pick (28,4) and (4,25)
The equation of a line, given two points (a,b) and (c,d) is

Using the selected points

Simplifying and computing results, the equation is

Using that equation, we can predict how many hours the students will spend doing homework if they spend 15 hours watching TV
=15.4 hours
So the student is expected to spend 15.4 hours doing homework
Answer:
1.) Yes
2.) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
n = k(k + 7)
If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ?
(1) k is odd. Yes.
Let assume that k = 3
Then, n = 3(3 + 7)
n = 3 × 10
n = 30.
30 is divisible by 6.
(2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2. That is,
Let k = 5
Then,
5/3 = 1 remainder 2
Substitute k into the equation
n = k(k + 7)
n = 5(5 + 7)
n = 5 × 12
n = 60
And 60 is divisible by 6.
Therefore, the answer to both questions is Yes.
To make a positive profit p(x)>0 we need to make:

Now we solve this for x:

We have:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3
We will use formula for quadratic equation:

We got two solutions. One is fraction other is whole number. We will not consider fraction because the amount of muffins sold must be whole number. So our solution is:
x>3
Answer:
The value of
is -16.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to evaluate
for x = -1, y = 5 and let us assume that z = 1
It can be simply done by putting the values of x,y and z in the given expression.

We know that the value of 4² = 16
So,

So, the value of
is -16.
