Sophie and Simon are peeling a pile of potatoes for lunch in the cafeteria. Sophie can peel all the potatoes by herself in 45 minutes, while it would take Simon 30 minutes to do the job working alone. If Sophie and Simon work together to peel the potatoes, how long will it take them? A table showing Rate in part per minute, Time in minutes, and Part of Potatoes Peeled. The first row shows Simon and has StartFraction 1 Over 30 EndFraction, t, and t times StartFraction 1 Over 30 EndFraction. The second row shows Sophie, and has StartFraction 1 Over 45 EndFraction, t, and t times StartFraction 1 Over 45 EndFraction. 15 minutes 18 minutes 38 minutes 75 minutes

Given are five observations for two variables, x and y. xi 1 2 3 4 5 yi 3 7 5 11 14 which of the following is a scatter diagrams accurately represents the data? what does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables? try to approximate the relationship betwen x and y by drawing a straight line through the data. which of the following is a scatter diagrams accurately represents the data? develop the estimated regression equation by computing the values of b 0 and b 1 using equations (14.6) and (14.7) (to 1 decimal). = + x use the estimated regression equation to predict the value of y when x = 4 (to 1 decimal). =
