The yield in bushes per acre is related to the average temperature. The attached sample data was obtained in a recent study. The least-square regression equation for yield in bushes and the average temperature is Region Temperature Yield (in bushes per acre)

y = 0.9143x - 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Region Temperature Yield (in bushes per acre)

4 3

8 7

10 8

12 10

9 8

6 4

Using technology, the least square regression equation obtained by fitting the data is :

y = 0.9143x - 0.8

Where ;

y = predicted Bush yield, predicted variable

x = Average temperature, dependent variable

The slope Coefficient = 0.9143

The intercept = - 0.8

d

step-by-step explanation:

by observation, we can see that the the graph is simply the graph of y = |x| that has been shifted 4 units downwards and 3 units to the left.

we can recognize in choice d :

y = | x + 3 |   - 4 (rewriting in general form)

y = | x - (- 3) |   - 4

the "-4 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 4 units in the negative y direction

the "-3 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 3 units in the negative x direction

this matches our observation of the graph described above.

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
