We are using a line regression tool to solve the parameters asked in the problem. We can use online tools or that of Excel. According to the tool, the best fit values are
<span><span> </span><span>Slope0.3848 ± 0.03956
</span><span>Y-intercept0.6053 ± 0.6370
</span><span>X-intercept-1.573
</span><span>1/Slope<span>2.598
Best fit lines make sure that the standard deviation at each point is minimum from the best fit line.</span></span></span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct option is B.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation coefficient r=-0.84 denotes that there is inverse relationship between x and y. It means that as the x values increase the y values decrease whereas as the x values decreases the y-values increases. Also, r=-0.84 denotes the strong relationship between x and y because it is close to 1. So, r=-0.84 denotes that there is strong linear relationship between x and y with smaller x values tending to be associated with larger y values.
Answer:
B.
The solution of |2x + 8| > 6 includes all values that are less than –7 or greater than –1.
The solution of |2x + 8| < 6 includes all values that are greater than –7 and less than –1.
__
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the solution by "unfolding" the absolute value, then dividing by 2 and subtracting 4:
-6 > 2x +8 > 6 . . . . . read this as -6 is less than 2x+8 or 2x+8 is greater than 6
-3 > x +4 > 3 . . . . . . .divide by 2
-7 > x > -1 . . . . . . . . . solution to the first inequality: x is less than -7 or greater than -1.
___
The solution to the other inequality is identical, except the direction of the comparison is reversed. It is read differently, because the segments overlap, rather than being disjoint.
-7 < x < -1 . . . . . . . . solution to the second inequality: x is greater than -7 and less than -1.
__
These descriptions match choice B.
