The table contains data for five students: hours studied, x, and corresponding test scores, y. Use the regression calculator to make a scatterplot with a trend line.

A 2-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 1, 2, 4, 7, 8. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 76, 81, 89, 87, 91.

Based on the trend line, what score would you expect after studying for 5 hours?
As the number of hours studying increases, the coressponding test score

86 tends to increase

Step-by-step explanation:

just did this

86

Tends to increase

Step-by-step explanation:

just did it on edg 2020

-60.75

step-by-step explanation:

just add the numbers then put the negative sign on it

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt
