Answer:

I will do a step by step explanation to help you.

First, subtract 16 from 31 so you can simplify what you need to find. We will call the unknown number X. So 5x = 15

15/5 = 3 so X = 3

Lets plug in X

3 x 5 + 16 = 31

Makes sense!

Hope this helps

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, we'll have to do a quick equation.

31 - 16 = 15

Now, we can divide 15 by 5.

15 ÷ 5 = 3

So now we know that the sum of 5 times a number and 16 is 3 because:

3 x 5 = 15

15 + 16 = 31

So therefore, your answer is 3.

Application of the least squares method results in values of the y-intercept and the slope that minimizes the sum of the squared
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The least squares method results in values of the y-intercept and the slope, that minimizes the sum of the squared deviations between the observed (actual) value and the fitted value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The method of least squares works under these assumptions

  • The best fit for a data collection is a function (sometimes called curve).
  • This function, is such that allows the minimal sum of difference between each observation and the expected value.
  • The expected values are calculated using the fitting function.
  • The difference between the observation, and the expecte value is know as least square error.
