They measure the height of the plant at the end of each week for several weeks and display the data in a scatter plot. They then find the equation for the best-fit line to be y= 2.5 + 1.25x

X = the number of weeks that have passed


= the height of the plant
They want to use the equation to estimate when the height of the plant will be 10
Amalia's estimate is after 6 weeks.
Alec's estimate is after Week 15.
Is either student correct?

Answers

Answer 1

Amalia would be correct. They are guessing when the height would be 10, and you are given an equation that will 'predict' that. Height is y, so substitute 10 in the equation and solve for x. You will get x=6

Answer 2
Yes, Amalia is correct. If y=height of plant and x=number of weeks that have passed then you plug in the numbers, we are looking for height of 10 so y=10 so 10=2.5+1.25(6) is the equation if we plug in Amalias guess of 6 weeks, if we plug in Alexs guess it would be same but use his guess 15 instead of 6. So to figure out of the equation is correct I’ll replace 10 for y so I can do it out y=2.5+1.25(6) now easily solve for y by doing 1.25x6=7.5 then I add 2.5+7.5=10, so I plug 10 back in for y and it looks like 10=10 so yes she is right. But I double check by also doing the second students guess, right away I multiply 1.25x15 and I get a number larger than 10, I think it was 18 something so I know that’s wrong without even having to finish it by adding 2.5 because then it’ll only get bigger but for fun you add it say it’s 20.5 then plug 10 back in for y 10=20.5 nope they aren’t equal so answer is not right. If you want to guess for any other height, just plug it in for the y and your guess for number of weeks for x and do out the equation (I used a calculator to multiply since they aren’t whole numbers it’s easier to do 1.25x6 or whatever number on calculator I can’t do it in my head) and then just add 2.5 either with calculator or not it’s easy enough to do it in your head. Hope that helps.

Using the discriminant of a quadratic equation, if the graph is translated shifted up 4 units, the graph will have no x-intercepts.

What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

The discriminant is:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

The solutions are as follows:

If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta > 0}[/tex], and it has 2 x-intercepts.If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta = 0}[/tex], it has 1 x-intercept.If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta < 0}[/tex], it has no x-intercepts.

In this problem, the function is given by:

f(x) = (x + 5)² - 3.

In standard form:

f(x) = x² + 10x + 22.

We want to find coefficient k for which the function has [tex]\Delta < 0[/tex], then:

f(x) = x² + 10x + 22 + k.

The coefficients are a = 1, b = 10, c = 22 + k, hence:

[tex]\Delta < 0[/tex]

10² - 4(22 + k) < 0

100 - 88 - 4k < 0

4k > 12

k > 3.

Hence, with k = 4, the function is shifted up 4 units, and the graph will have no x-intercepts.

have the exact same number of each?

Answers

Using the least common multiple, it is found that you need to buy 3 packs of hot dogs and 2 packs of buns to have the exact same number of each.

How to find the number of packs needed?

First, we need to find the total number of each element, finding the least common multiple of the sizes of each package, that is, 8 and 12.

The lcm is found factoring them by prime factors, hence:

8 - 12|2

4 - 6|2

2 - 3|2

1 - 3|3

1 - 1

Hence, lcm(8,12) = 2³ x 3 = 24.

Then:

24/8 = 3.24/12 = 2.

Which means that you need to buy 3 packs of hot dogs and 2 packs of buns to have the exact same number of each.

We are asked to factor out the GCF in the expression

[tex]\star~\star\mathrm{6x^3+3x}~\star~\star[/tex]

[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex]

Divide every single term of the expression by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor).

So let's divide.

But first. we should work out the GCF.

Both terms have 3x in common, so we divide both terms by 3x:

[tex]\mathrm{6x^3+3x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{3x(2x^2+1)}[/tex]

To ensure that we've factored correctly, we can always use the distributive property, distribute 3x and see whether or not we end up with [tex]\mathtt{6x^3+3x}[/tex].

So the answer is

[tex]\mathrm{3x(2x^2+1)}[/tex]

Notice I put parentheses around 2x²+1. This indicates that 3x is multiplied times both 2x² and 1.

The best intervals would be 41-45, 46-50, 51-55, 56-60, 61-65, and 69-70.

The best way to decide the appropriate interval would be to find the range of the numbers.

We have given a data set,

What is the smallest value in the data?

The minimum is the smallest value in the data set. The maximum is the largest value in the data set.

What is the largest minus the smallest?

This would be 69-42=27.

If you need six intervals you would need to round 27 up to 30 to be able to divide it out evenly and include all of the data.

The best intervals would be 41-45, 46-50, 51-55, 56-60, 61-65, and 69-70.

This way you are one over and one under the highest and lowest values.
