Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slopeb - y-intercept

Linear Regression

Step-by-step explanation:

We can draw any best line of fit, as long as it is reasonable around the points that are given.

We can just take 2 points and use slope formula and Slope-Intercept Form to find the equation for the best line of fit.

Using Linear Regression, we can determine the true best line of fit using graphing utilities.

Finding the best line of fit

Define 2 points

Point (21600, 205)

Point (27000, 290)

Find slope m

Substitute in point [SF]: $\displaystyle m=\frac{290-205}{27000-21600}$ [Fraction] Subtract: $\displaystyle m=\frac{85}{5400}$ [Fraction] Simplify: $\displaystyle m=\frac{17}{1080}$

Find equation

Define equation [SIF]: $\displaystyle y = \frac{17}{1080}x + b$ Substitute in point: $\displaystyle 290 = \frac{17}{1080}(27000) + b$ Multiply: $\displaystyle 290 = 425 + b$ Isolate y-intercept b: $\displaystyle -135 = b$ Rewrite: $\displaystyle b = -135$ Redefine equation: $\displaystyle y = \frac{17}{1080}x - 135$

Slope-Intercept Form tells us that our slope m = $\displaystyle \frac{17}{1080}$ and our y-intercept $\displaystyle b = -135$ .

Setting this as function f(x), we can see from the graph that it is extremely accurate (Blue line).

Using Linear Regression

Depending on the graphing calc you have, the steps may be different.

Using a graphing calc, we can use statistics and determine the best best line of fit.

When we determine the values, we should see that our equation would be g(x) (Green Line).

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

Answer from: Quest

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.

Someone answer asap for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
