Company X tried selling widgets at various prices to see how much profit they would
make. The following table shows the widget selling price, x, and the total profit
earned at that price, y. Write a quadratic regression equation for this set of data,
rounding all coefficients to the nearest tenth. Using this equation, find the profit, to
the nearest dollar, for a selling price of 14.25 dollars.

Company X Tried Selling Widgets At Various Prices To See How Much Profit They Wouldmake. The Following

Answers

Answer 1

Regression equations are used to represent the relationship between the x and y variables.

The quadratic regression equation is [tex]\mathbf{y =-6.407 X^2 +216.721 X -975.561}[/tex]The profit for a selling price of $14.25 is $812

To determine the quadratic regression equation, we make use of a graphic calculator

Using a graphing calculator, we have the quadratic regression equation to be [tex]\mathbf{y =-6.407 X^2 +216.721 X -975.561}[/tex]

When the selling price is $14.25, it means that:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 14.25}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{y =-6.407 \times 14.25^2 +216.721 \times 14.25 -975.561}[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents

[tex]\mathbf{y =-6.407 \times 203.0625+216.721 \times 14.25 -975.561}[/tex]

Evaluate the products

[tex]\mathbf{y =-1301.0214375+3088.27425 -975.561}[/tex]

Evaluate like terms

[tex]\mathbf{y =811.6918125}[/tex]

Approximate to the nearest dollar

[tex]\mathbf{y =812}[/tex]

Hence, the profit for a selling price of $14.25 is $812

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a + b)² =a² + 2ab + b²

(a -b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

1) y = (x -1)²

 y= x² -  2*x*1 + 1

y = x² - 2x + 1    

Ans: C

2)y = (x +4)² + 5

y = x² +2*x*4 + 4² + 5

  = x² + 8x + 16 + 5

y = x² + 8x + 21

C

3) y = -(x + 9)²- 10

y = - [x² + 18x + 81] - 10

= -x² - 18x - 81 - 10

y =-x² - 18x - 91

B

4) y = 3(x + 2)² - 18

y =3 [x² + 4x + 4] - 18

y =  3x² + 12x  + 12 - 18

y =3x²  + 12x - 6

A

5) y = -2(x + 1)² - 16

       = -2[x² + 2x + 1] -16

       = -2x² - 4x - 2 - 16

     y = -2x² - 4x -  18

A

6) y = 5(x + 5)²

        =5[x²+ 10x + 25]

y = 5x² +50x + 125

A

7)y = (1/2)(x + 8)² - 8

  y = (1/2) (x² + 16x + 64) - 8

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{2}*x^{2}+ \dfrac{1}{2}*16x + \dfrac{1}{2}*64 -8\\\\\\y =\dfrac{1}{2}x^{2}+8x +32 - 8\\\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{2}x^{2} +8x + 24[/tex]

A

8) y = (x + 3/2)² + 3/4

[tex]y = x^{2} +2*x*\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{9}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\y=x^{2}+3x+\dfrac{12}{4}\\\\\\y=x^{2}+3x + 3[/tex]

Answer:

a = 9.6 b = 11.2

Step-by-step explanation:

10 percent of 8 is .8

8 + (8 x .1) = 8.8

8.8 + .8 = 9.6

She will be paid 9.6 dollars after 1 full year of working, because working for one year is 12 months, and thats 10 percent of 8 twice. You can also put that as 20 percent of 8, aka 1.6

When you do 8+1.6 it equals 9.6

For the second part, that is 24 months, so 10 percent of 8 4 times. .8+.8+.8+.8 = 3.2

8+3.2 = 11.2

She will be paid 11.2 dollars after 2 full years of working.

A line that includes the points ( – 4, – 6) and (5,v) has a slope of – 2/9 . What is the value of v?

Answers

Answer:

v is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

We are given the slope, so let's write:

  y = -(2/9)x + b

We can find b by using the one fully given point, (-4, -6).

y = -(2/9)x + b

-6 = -(2/9)(-4) + b

b = -6 - (8/9)

b = -(62/9)

Now we have   y = -(2/9)x - (62/9)

We want the value of y when x is 5 to find v in (5,v):

y = -(2/9)x - (62/9)

y = -(2/9)(5) - (62/9)

y = -(10/9) - (62/9)

y = -(72/9)

y = -8

v is -8

Give your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

  z = 3√13

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of z is the geometric mean of the segments of the longest side that share a common point with z. The shorter of those is 9; the longer one is 4+9 = 13. Then ...

  z = √(9(13))

  z = 3√13

__

Additional comment

In like fashion, ...

x = √(4(13)) = 2√13y = √(4·9) = 6.

__

These relations come about because all of these right triangles are similar. That means their side lengths are proportional.

  long side/hypotenuse = z/13 = 9/z   ⇒   z = √(9·13)

  short side/hypotenuse = x/13 = 4/x   ⇒   x = √(4·13)

  short side/long side = 4/y = y/9   ⇒   y = √(4·9)
