The quadratic regression graphed on the coordinate grid represents the height of a road surface x meters from the center of the road. A graph shows the horizontal axis numbered negative 7 to positive 7 and the vertical axis numbered negative 1.25 to positive 1.25. A line shows an upward then downward trend. What does the graph of the regression model show? The height of the surface decreases from the center out to the sides of the road. The height of the surface increases, then decreases, from the center out to the sides of the road. The height of the surface increases from the center out to the sides of the road. The height of the surface remains the same the entire distance across the road.

NOT: The height of the surface increases, then decreases, from the center out to the sides of the road.

Explain the concept of regression to the mean between generations.

Regression to the mean is the phenomenon that occurs when the next generation, or offspring values, regresses to the overall mean of the population. Extreme traits are not increased or decreased in measure, but trend back to the average.

The table below shows the profit based on price for an object sold by a company. Which statements are true? Check all that apply. The data is best represented by an exponential model. The data is best represented by a quadratic model. If the price is $5 per unit, the expected profit is approximately $4,686. If the price is $80 per unit, the expected profit is negative. As the price per unit increases, the profit increases indefinitely.

Jessica plots the data points relating the amount of money she needs to repay a loan and the number of months she has been making payments. She calculates two regression models. Which is true? The linear model better represents the situation because the amount she owes is decreasing by about the same amount every 6 months. The linear model better represents the situation because according to the exponential model, the repayment amount will never be 0. The exponential model better represents the situation because the amount she owes decreases by about the same amount every 6 months. The exponential model better represents the situation because according to the linear model, the repayment amount will eventually be negative.

The linear model better represents the situation because the amount she owes is decreasing by about the same amount every 6 months.

A farmer harvests apples that are heavier than the average 5 kg weight for that variety. He plants the seeds from the harvest hoping that the next generation will produce even heavier apples. Using the results found by Galton, which statement is most likely true regarding the weight of the next generation? The next generation will weigh twice as much as the parent generation, closer to 10 kg. The next generation will weigh exactly the same as the parent generation. The next generation will weigh less than the parent generation, closer to 5 kg. The next generation will weigh less than the parent generation, closer to 2.5 kg.

The next generation will weigh less than the parent generation, closer to 5 kg.

The data in the table represents a company's profit based on the number of items produced. Which equation best represents the data? y = -1.026x2 + 1016.402x - 162075 y = -1.036x2 + 1024.771x - 163710 y = 298.214x - 66317.667 y = 196.2x - 18710

The table shows the estimated number of bees, y, in a hive x days after a pesticide is released near the hive. Which function best models the data? y = 9,958(0.972)x y = 0.972(9,958)x y = 9,219x- 150 y = -150x + 9,219

y = 9,958(0.972)x

The graph shows the data points in the table and the exponential regression model associated with the data. Based on the graph of the regression model, which is true? The number of weeds is decreasing by a multiplicative rate. The number of weeds is increasing by a multiplicative rate. The number of weeds is decreasing by an additive rate. The number of weeds is increasing by an additive rate.

The number of weeds is decreasing by a multiplicative rate.

Charlie used a regression calculator to generate the equation f(x) = -0.15x + 20.1 for the ordered pairs (2, 15), (4, 21), (6, 26), (8, 20), and (10, 14). Is a linear representation the best way to represent the data? If it is, explain why. If not, explain why and suggest a better alternative.

The r-value for the linear function related to the ordered pairs is very close to zero, so it is not a good representation of the data. A quadratic model would better represent the data because there is a turning point within the data set. The data increases then decreases, which is what the graph of a quadratic does.

The table represents the temperature of a cup of coffee over time. Which model best represents the data set? exponential, because there is a relatively consistent multiplicative rate of change exponential, because there is a relatively consistent additive rate of change linear, because there is a relatively consistent multiplicative rate of change linear, because there is a relatively consistent additive rate of change

exponential, because there is a relatively consistent multiplicative rate of change
