Imagine that you have plotted many data points on an xy-plane. Your points seem to align into a clear best-fit line. Do you thin

k this best-fit line can help you make predictions about future data? Explain your answer, and give one or more examples to support it.

It depends really. If you stay close to the present, then predicting future results isn't too bad. The further you go out, the more unpredictable things get. This is because the points may deviate from the line of best fit (aka regression line) as time wears on. Of course, it also depends on what kind of data we're working with. Some pairs of variables are naturally going to correlate very strongly together. An example would be temperature versus ice cream sales.

The point guard of a basketball team has to make a decision about whether or not to shoot a three-point attempt or pass the ball
melamori03 [73]

the expected value for the 3 point shot = (3 * 0.30) + (0 * 0.70) = 0.90

the expected value for the 2 point shot = (2 * 0.48) + (0 * 0.52) = 0.96

the expected value for the 2 point shot is higher than the 3 point shot so he should pass the ball

Rates Question
12 A highway had a landslide, where 3,000 cubic yards of material fell on the road, requiring 200 dump truck loads to clear. On another highway, a slide left 40,000 cubic yards on the road. How many dump truck loads would be needed to clear this slide?
3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
40,000 yd3 × 200 dtl = 2,667 dtl

Write an equivalent expression for n x a using only addition
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Equivalent expression for n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Expression for n x a .

To find : Write an equivalent expression for n x a using only addition.

Solution : We have given that n x a .

Here, we can say Sum of  a is n times.

We can rewrite it n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times.

Example : 3 x 2 = 2 +2+ 2.

                   6 = 6 ( true)

Therefore , equivalent expression for n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times.
