Corporate headquarters wants to create a simple linear regression model to predict a restaurant's annual revenue using the average cost of gasoline. First create a scatterplot using Average Cost of Gasoline as the independent variable and Annual Revenue as the dependent variable. After performing a visual analysis of the scatterplot, if appropriate, construct a simple linear regression model using the average cost of gasoline to predict a restaurant's annual revenue. Using your simple linear regression model, for every one-cent increase in the cost of a gallon of gasoline, how much would one predict the restaurant's annual revenue to decrease?

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.

yes the data was not prsented

step-by-step explanation:

c. 6tan80

step-by-step explanation:

answer: two angles are called supplementary if they add up to 180°. example: the two angles (140° and 40°) are supplementary because they add up to 180°.
