Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to do this, you have to know how to use your calculator's regression equation function.

First enter in the data. Hit "stat" then 1:Edit and enter all the x values into L1. After each value, hit enter. When you're done with the x list, arrow over to L2 and enter in all the y-values. If there are already values there you need to clear, arrow up to highlight L1, hit "clear", then "enter" and the values will disappear. Do that for both lists if you need to.

After the data is listed in L1 and L2, hit "stat" again and arrow over to "Calc". Hit 5:QuadReg. If you have a TI 83, your equation will be there for you. If you have a TI 84, you'll need to arrow down to "calculate" to get the equation. Regardless, the equation is

$y=3.48x^2+1.22x+3.44$ , the last choice in your options.

Most cars get their best gas mileage when traveling at a relatively slow speed. The gas mileage M for a certain new car is model

NeTakaya

In this item, it is assumed that we are to determine the speed at which the car will have the best gas mileage. This can be done by deriving the equation and equating it to zero.

M(s) = -1/28s² + 3s - 31

Deriving,
dM(s) = (-1/28)(2s) + 3 = 0

s = 42

Hence, the speed at which the best mileage is achieved is mi/h.

terrence made a sphere out of modeling clay. the sphere had a radius of 2 inches. approximately how much modeling clay did terre

navik [9.2K]

Amount of clay used = volume of the sphere

It is given that the radius of the sphere is 2 inches.

Volume of the sphere = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$
