I think the correct answer would be B. If the residuals for brand A form an increasing curve, and the residuals for brand B form a U-shaped pattern, then neither of the data is likely to be linear. In order to be linear, the residuals of both data set should be, more or less, linear or approaching linearity in nature. Therefore, the linear regression that was done would not give good results since it is only applicable to linear data sets. Also, you can say that the relation of the data sets of the products are not linear. It would be best to do a curve fitting for both sets by using different functions like parabolic functions.

Inequalities part 2<br> I need help pls i dont understand
Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

For y/x to be as high as possible, y must have the highest possible value and x must have the lowest possible value. (12 and 6)

Hence, y/x < 12/6, which is 2.

For y/x to be as low as possible, y must have the lowest possible value and x must have the highest possible value (10 and 7)

Hence, y/x > 10/7.

Combining the 2 inequalities, we have 10/7 < y/x < 2.

A straight line passing through A(3,2) and B(5,y) has gradient -2. find the value of y​
astraxan [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient \:  =  \:  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

y2 = y , x2 = 5

y1 = 2 , x1 = 3

- 2 \:  =  \:  \frac{y - 2}{5 - 3}

-4 = y-2 ==> y = -2
