Jordan plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of his city and the number of cups of hot chocolate he sold daily: A scatter plot is shown with the title Jordans Hot Chocolate Sales. The x axis is labeled High Temperature and the y axis is labeled Cups of Hot Chocolate Sold. Data points are located at 20 and 20, 30 and 18, 40 and 20, 35 and 15, 50 and 20, 45 and 20, 60 and 14, 65 and 18, 80 and 10, 70 and 8, 40 and 2.
Part A: In your own words, describe the relationship between the temperature of the city and the number of cups of hot chocolate sold. (2 points)
Part B: Describe how you can make the line of best fit. Write the approximate slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit. Show your work, including the points that you use to calculate the slope and y-intercept. (3 points)

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

you,

c

step-by-step explanation:

it isn't d, because the interquartile range is from 27-57. and the interquartile range is basically half the data, it's pretty obvious.

it isn't b, because like i said earlier, the interquartile range is from 27-57. 57-27 is 30. the real range has to be longer

not a either. although it looks like it, 3/4 of the data is not greater than 27. but if c is wrong than this should be correct

the correct answer is c, because 13 is the point in which the plot starts

d. bc = 12 and ef = 16

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that δabc : δdef such that .

also, it is given that

so, from the options, we need that .

a.

b.

c.  

d.

as, we can see that only option d gives the same ratio as i.e. .

hence, the possible lengths are bc = 12 and ef = 16.
