Answer: Hello,

1)
I don't if in USA, we count beginning with 0 or beginning with 1

if you count 0,1,2,3,4,5,6... a(0) being the FIRST term the answer is A
if you count 1,2,3,4,5... a(1) being the first term (in  this case how do you call a(0) the zeroth term?) the answer is C

In Europ, the first term is a(0).

2)

a(1)=8 Is it the FIRST term?
a(n)=a(n-1)-2
Answer A

If a given data point is (1,4) and the line of best fit is y = 1.5x + 3.25, what's the residual value?

Answers

Answer:

The residual value is -0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that  

The residual value is the observed value minus the predicted value.

RESIDUAL VALUE=[OBSERVED VALUE-PREDICTED VALUE]

where

Predicted value.--> the predicted value given the current regression equation

Observed value. --> The observed value for the dependent variable.

in this problem

we have the point (1,4)

so

The observed value is 4

Find the predicted value  for x=1

y =1.5(1)+3.25=4.75

predicted value is 4.75

so

RESIDUAL VALUE=(4-4.75)=-0.75

Answer:

-0.75

Find the value of I given that p=300, r=0.14, and t=2

Answers

Hi there, Convert r percent to r a decimal, r=R/100=0.14%/100=0.0014 per year. Now, we have to solve using a equation, the equation is A=300(1+(0.0014*2))=300.84, Therefore, the answer is $300.84
300x0.14=0.42
0.42x2=0.84

The combined land area of the countries A and B is 157,973 square kilometers. Country A is larger by 773 square kilometers. Determine the land area of each country.

Answers

The combined land areas of country A & B are 157,973 sq km. COuntry A is larger by 773 sq kn. The land area of Country A is 79,373, the land area of Country B is 78,600. 
A + B = 157,973
A = B + 773

now its just a matter of subbing
(B + 773) + B = 157,973
2B + 773 = 157,973
2B = 157,973 - 773
2B = 157,200
B = 157,200/2
B = 78,600 <=== land area for country B

A = B + 773
A = 78,600 + 773
A = 79,373 <== land area for country A
