It’s -3x because it’s the furthest away from zero on the number line.

There are 3 different operations we can perform. Addition, Subtractions and Multiplication.

Subtraction
(−2x − 1) - (−3x + 4)
x - 5
x coefficient = 1

Addition: 
(−2x − 1) + (−3x + 4)
3 - 5x
x coefficient = -5

Multiplication:
x(6x - 5) -4
x coefficient = 6

-5 is the least so addition is the answer

love history [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Convert into expressions</u>

y = one-fourth x minus 1 → y = \frac{1}{4}x-1

y = negative one-half x minus one-fourth → y = -\frac{1}{2}x - \frac{1}{4}

They intersect at (1, -\frac{3}{4})

Answer: Option A, (1, negative three-fourths)

4 miles= (10-s) x 1hr. S could stand for the speed of the wind, since it is taking away from the typical speed of the bike.

A fitted multiple regression equation is Y = 28 + 5X1 - 4X2 + 7X3 + 2X4. When X1 increases 2 units and X2 increases 2 units as w
ad-work [718]

Answer:

A. Increase by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  fitted multiple regression equation is

Y = 28 + 5X_1 -4X_2 + 7X_3 + 2X_4

This is a multiple regression line with dependent variable y and independent variables x1, x2, x3 and x4

The coefficients of independent variables represent the slope.

In other words the coefficients represent the rate of change of y when xi is changed by 1 unit.

Given that x3 and x4 remain unchanged and x1 increases by 2 and x2 by 2 units

Since slope of x1 is 5, we find for one unit change in x1 we can have 5 units change in y

i.e. for 2 units change in x1, we expect 10 units change in Y

Similarly for 2 units change in x2, we expect -2(4) units change in Y

Put together we have

10-8 =2 change in y

Since positive 2, there is an increase by 2

A. Increase by 2
