The least-square regression line has a slope of:
m=(nΣxy-ΣyΣx)/(nΣx²-ΣxΣx)
and a y-intercept of:
b=(Σy-mΣx)/n
In this case: n=7, Σxy=4899, Σy=391, Σx=85, Σx²=1153 so
m=(7(4899)-391*85)/(7(1153)-85*85))=1058/846
b=(391*846-85*1058)/(7*846)=34408/846
So the line of best fit is:
y=(1058x+34408)/846 and if we approximated this as your answers see to have done....
y=1.25x+40.67
Answer:
x=1, y=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug y=8x into y=10x-4.
8x=10x-4
Subtract 10x from each side.
-2x=-2
Divide each side by -2.
x=1
Plug x=1 into y=8x.
y=8(1)
y=8
Since C is 61 degrees, A is 90 degrees because of the right angle, and B would be 29 degrees because you add 61 and 90 together and subtract that amount from 180.
Wait I'm sorry if this is what you aren't looking for-
Hello there, my fellow human being!
So, the chicken costs $8 and the duck costs $5, here's why.
Let's say x is the cost of a chicken while y is the cost of a duck.
We can make two linear equations using the information above.
Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y= 550
This month, he sold 44 chicken and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532
50x/10 + 30y/10 = 440/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4
5x + 3y = 44
11x + 9y = 133
So, now that we have our answer simplified, we have to use elimination to solve this system of equations. But, first we need to make sure that at least one of our variables is able to be canceled out.
Let's multiply this equation by -3.
(5x + 3y = 44) * -3.
-15x-9y=-165.
11x + 9y = 133
-15x - 9y = -165
______________
-4x/4 = -32/4
x = 8
11x + 9y = 133
11(8) + 9y = 133
88 + 9y = 133
-88 -88
________________
9y/9 = 45/9
y = 5.
