First option: <span>The signs of the values of m and b are the same.</span>
The correct answer is the choice that you have selected, the third choice.
When, we are looking at the residuals for a regression line, we always want to see the points balance like in the third choice. This means that the equation that we found is right in the middle of the points.
We can conclude that samples won’t affect how many bottles of wine a customer will buy.
He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
