Answer:
1. The first problem is wrong, it should be 0.5(3(15) + 2(20)) because the parentheses make sure that every purchased item is being divided by 2 (multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2)
2. The second problem is partially correct. The first two answers you have checked are correct, but the last one is wrong. The third answer should be 6 + 12 instead because that's just a simplified version of 2(3) + 6(2), meaning they are equal
3. I cannot read your answers in the "Why or Why Not" column in the third problem, but the answers you gave in the "Evaluate" and "Does It Work?" columns are all correct.
F(x)=5x-2
y=5x-2
y=5(3)-2
y=15-2
y=13
so the answer is B. 13
From there we can see that because x equals both to a and b, it must be that a = b.
Answer:
b. There's no statistically significant linear relationship between the number of miles driven and the maintenance cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The p-value for the slope estimate show us how strong is the certainty that there are a linear relationship between both variables. In this case, the p-value for the slopes shows if there is a significant relationship between the number of miles driven and the maintenance cost.
If we have a high p-value like 0.7 we can said that there is no certainty in the linear relationship. it means that there's no statistically significant linear relationship between the number of miles driven and the maintenance cost.
