The person that factored the polynomial did one thing wrong -- they used minus signs when they should've used plus signs. We can figure this out because of the values of the quantities in the original trinomial. Since all of them are positive, we know that either there are two plus signs or that there is a minus and a plus sign with the value to the right of the plus sign being greater than the value to the right of the minus sign. But, that wouldn't work here, so the only thing wrong with this answer is that the plus signs should be minus signs.
Answer:
Y = - 12.55X1 + 276.52
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
Age of child :(X) : 4, 6, 10, 13, 14, 17
Time (seconds) (Y) : 230, 205, 132, 119, 108, 62
Using technology, the linear regression equation obtained using the data Given is :
Y = - 12.55X1 + 276.52
Where :
Slope = - 12.55
Intercept = 276.52
This also indicates that a negative slope is present and hence a negative relationship between age of Child and time in seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume length of side 2 = L
Area of parallelogram is Height x L
So, 72 = 8 x L
L = 9
