Math Problem Statement

if the regression results from desmos look like this, what is the value of x=5

Solution

Given the updated regression equation:

y1=ax12+bx1+cy_1 = ax_1^2 + bx_1 + c

with the parameters:

  • a=2.31151a = -2.31151
  • b=3.1369b = 3.1369
  • c=9.53571c = 9.53571

We need to find the value of y1y_1 when x1=5x_1 = 5.

Substitute x1=5x_1 = 5 into the equation:

y1=2.31151(5)2+3.1369(5)+9.53571y_1 = -2.31151(5)^2 + 3.1369(5) + 9.53571

Let's calculate that.The value of y1y_1 when x1=5x_1 = 5 is approximately -32.57.

Would you like any further details on this calculation or have any other questions?

Here are some related questions you might consider:

  1. What would be the value of y1y_1 if x1x_1 were 10 with this model?
  2. How does the negative coefficient a=2.31151a = -2.31151 influence the shape of the graph?
  3. What is the significance of the R2R^2 value in this context?
  4. How would the value of y1y_1 change if the parameter bb was increased?
  5. What does the constant c=9.53571c = 9.53571 represent in the context of this model?

Tip: A negative coefficient for x2x^2 indicates a downward-opening parabola, which is why y1y_1 decreases significantly as x1x_1 increases.
