A horse owner has established that there is a relationship between weight carried and the finish position of several horses in his stable. By obtaining the regression equation of position finished on weight carried state the gradient of the equation. Weight carried

answer: median

step-by-step explanation:

the median is the middle value when a data set is ordered from least to greatest

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

step-by-step explanation:
