Given:

The data points are:

(1, 0), (2, 3), (3,1), (4,4), (5,5)

To find:

The equation of best fit line in the form of [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] and then find the value of b.

Solution:

The general form of best fit line is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]              ...(i)

Where, m is the slope of best fit line and b is the y-intercept of the line.

Using the graphing calculator, we get the equation for the best fit line and the equation is

[tex]y=1.1x-0.7[/tex]          ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]b=-0.7[/tex]

Therefore, the value of b is equal to -0.7.

Answer: [tex]7.81\ km[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Runner A runs towards North at speed of 10 km/h

Runner B runs towards East at speed of 12 km/h

After half hour, they covered a distance of

[tex]\Rightarrow d_a=10\times 0.5\\\Rightarrow d_a=5\ km[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow d_b=12\times 0.5\\\Rightarrow d_b=6\ km[/tex]

They are running in perpendicular direction to each other

So, the distance between them is  given by

[tex]\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{d_a^2+d_b^2}\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{5^2+6^2}\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{61}\\\Rightarrow d=7.81\ km[/tex]

Answer:

M1=44 M2=136 M3=44 M4=136

Step-by-step explanation:

M3= 44 so M1=44 due to opposite angles being equal

then if two of the angles add to 88

360-88= 272

divide 272 by 2 as M2 and M4 are equal

272/2=136

Answer:

m∠1 = 44°

m∠2 = 136°

m∠4 = 136°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠1 explanation:

I got it from m∠3 since they're both congruent

m∠2 explanation:

Since we already have the measure of 3 and 1, we can easily add both of the measures (44 + 44 = 88°) then subtract it from 360° (total) = 272°

Then since both measures (2 and 4) are congruent (measuring the exact same length and angle) we can divide 272° ÷ 2 = 136°

m∠4 explanation:

I got it from m∠2 since they're both congruent

Answer:

Alternate Interior Angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles can be corresponding; alternate or same side; or interior or exterior. The angles 2 and 8 are on opposite sides of the transversal; this means that they must be alternate angles. Additionally, they are both within the parallel lines, so they are interior. Alternate interior angles are always congruent. Therefore, their measurements must be equal.

Answer:

They are alternate interior angles

Step-by-step explanation:

<2 and <8 are inside the parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal

They are alternate interior angles

Answer:

x = 71.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the SOHCAHTOA rule

Soh...

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

...cah...

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

...toa

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

In this case, we use: CAH.

cos(52) = 44/x

x = 44/cos(52)

x = 71.5 inches

Answer:

3 = 20

5 = 20

8= 160

Step-by-step explanation:

angle 2 and 3 are on the same line, so 180 - 160 is 20 degrees

rule of alternate interior angles: angle 5 is equal to 3

rule of alternate exterior angles: angle 8 is equal to 2

Answer:

Slope = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Take two points and find the slope:

[tex]m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\\\m=\frac{3-0}{-1-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{3}{1}=3[/tex]

the first, (f+g)(x) is f(x) + g(x)

calculating it like:

x² + 7x + (8 -x²)

= x² + 7x + 8 -x²

= 7x + 8

Answer:

€270

Step-by-step explanation:

If a fruit vendor has bought 165kg of apples at € 2 per kilo, the total amount spent is expressed as;

Cost price = 165 * 2 = €330

If 15kg spoilt, the amount of fruit remaining will be 165 - 15 = 150kg

If he rests he sells for € 4 per kilo, then;

Selling price = 150 * 4 = €600

Amount earned = €600 - €330

Amount earned = €270

(3) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that ∆ADE is similar to ∆ABC. As such, the ratios of their legs are equal. Also note that AD = AB + BD.

BC/AB = DE/AD

BC/10 = 12/(10 + 5) = 12/15 = 4/5

or

BC = 10(4/5) = 8

Answer:

Gradient = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of a line is the slope of the line.

The standard form of the line equation is y = mx  + b

where m is the slope ( or gradient) b is the y - intercept.

Given :

2y = -10x + 1

[tex]y = -\frac{10}{2} x + \frac{1}{2}\\\\y = -5x + \frac{1}{2}\\\\Therefore , \ gradient \ is \ -5[/tex]

The gradient of the line whose equation is 2y=-10x+1 is -5.

Gradient could be a measure of how steep a slope or a line is.

The equation of the road is 2y=-10x+1

y=-5x+1/2

Therefore the gradient of the line is that the coefficient of x which is -5.

Hence the gradient of the line is -5.

Answer:

The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are [tex]33[/tex] and [tex]\frac{20\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex], respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is equivalent to the following mathematic expression:

[tex]\left(5 + 2\sqrt{2})^{2} = a + b\cdot \sqrt{6}[/tex] (1)

By definition of the perfect square trinomial:

[tex]25 + 20\cdot \sqrt{2} + 8 = a + b\cdot \sqrt{6}[/tex]

[tex]33 + 20\sqrt{2} = a + b\cdot \sqrt{6}[/tex]

And by direct comparison we have the following system:

[tex]a = 33[/tex] (2)

[tex]b\cdot \sqrt{6} = 20\sqrt{2}[/tex] (3)

By (3), we solve for [tex]b[/tex]:

[tex]b = \frac{20}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

[tex]b = \frac{20\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex]

The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are [tex]33[/tex] and [tex]\frac{20\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex], respectively.

x =  [tex]\sqrt{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex] / sin(45) = x / sin(90)  (Cause its a square, the edges are 90 degrees)

[tex]\sqrt{14}[/tex] = x / 1

x = [tex]\sqrt{14}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 so 180-135 equals 45. Vertically opposite angles are equal so the second angle inside the triangle equals 100. Henceforth, we can solve this equation:

x +45+100 = 180 (angles in triangle add up to 180)

x+145=180

x=35

Vertically opposite angles are equal so x will become 35.
