So when it asks for a function with a number in parenthesis like that it’s asking for you to find the function of that number.

Basically substitute in that number.

F(1)=2(1)-3
=2-3
=-1

A set of data points has a line of best fit of y=2.5x-1.5

castortr0y [4]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- You must apply the following formula:

$R=yo-yp$

Where $R$ is the residual, $yo$ is the observed value $y$ and $yp$ is the predicted value $y$ .

2- You only need to substitute the $x=5$ into the equation $y=2.5x-1.5$ and then, you must apply the formula for calculate the residual:

$y=2.5(5)-1.5\\ y=11$

$R=12-11\\ R=1$

The answer is: The residual is $1$

Each cone of the hourglass has a height of 15 millimeters. The total height of the sand within the top portion of the hourglass

BARSIC [14]

Calculate the volume of sand, the cone will be completely filled and the cylinder will have sand up to the 30 mm level.

Volume of sand will = the volume of the cone:
= 1/3 * pi * (6 mm)^2 * 15
= 1/3 * pi * 36 * 15 =180 pi cubic mm

the cylinder will have a volume of sand equal to:
= pi * (6 mm)^2 * 30 mm
= pi * 36 sq mm * 30 mm
= 1080 pi cubic mm

The total sand is the sum:
= 1080 pi cubic mm +180 pi cubic mm
= 1260 pi cubic mm. <span>
