Consider this scatter plot.(a) How would you characterize the relationship between the hours spent on homework and the test
scores? Explain.

(b) Paul uses the function y = 8x + 40 to model the situation. What score does the model predict for 3 h
of homework?

(c) What does the number 40 in Part (b) mean in the context of the situation?

Answers

A) the more time spent on homework the higher the test score

B) y =8x+40 = y=8(3)+40 = 24+40 = 64

C) 40 would be the test score if no time was spent doing homework

Answer:

We have been given the scatter plot:

(a)We can clearly see from the plot that there is direct proportion between the number of hours of homework and test scores.

Direct proportion means if hours of homework increases then test score increases  and vice-versa.

(b) we have  been given a function y=8x +40

We need to predict for 3 hours of  homework put x=3 in above function as x represents  hours of  homework  we get:

y=8(3)+40

y=24+40

y=64

Hence test score will be 64 for 3 hour of homework.

(c) 40 means the test score when there is x=0 means 0 hours o homework.

    3x+4y=2
 + 4x-4y=12         add them since 4y and -4y can cancel out
    7x=14              divide each side by 7

3x+4y=2   x=2
3(2)+4y=2        substitute

What is the rule for finding the ratio of the areas of two objects if you know the scale?

Answers

Answer:

The square of the scale

Step-by-step explanation:

Scaling

Suppose we know the scale of the distances, for example, r=5. It means that for each centimeter in the drawing, it corresponds to 5 cm in the real object being scaled. If we wanted to find the ratio of the areas, we would need to scale both dimensions and the ratio would be the square of the scale factor. In our example, the ratio of the areas would be 25, i.e. each square centimeter would correspond to 25 square centimeters
