Answer:
B. y = -0.58x^2 -0.43x +15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The data has a shape roughly that of a parabola opening downward. So, you'll be looking for a 2nd-degree equation with a negative coefficient of x^2. There is only one of those, and its y-intercept (15.75) is in about the right place.
The second choice is appropriate.
_____
The other choices are ...
A. a parabola opening upward
C. an exponential function decaying toward zero on the right and tending toward infinity on the left
D. a line with negative slope (This might be a good linear regression model, but the 2nd-degree model is a better fit.)
Let F be the father's current age, and E be Evie's current age.
F = E + 36 this is the current relation between the ages
F + 3 = 5(E + 3) this the relationship in 3 year (hence the + 3)
Then solve by substituting one equation into another:
(E + 36) + 3 = 5(E + 3)
E + 39 = 5E + 15
24 = 4E
6 = E
Evie's current age is 6.
A correlation coefficient is always a value in between -1 and 1
The closest a coefficient to -1, the correlation is a strong negative correlation
The closest a coefficient to 1, the correlation is a strong positive correlation
The closest a coefficient to 0, there is no correlation at all
The coefficient -0.61 shows a strong negative correlation
This means that the relationship between the age and the violation is an inverse relationship; as age increases, violation decreases
