Rewrite the polynomial in the form ax^2+bx+c and then identify the values of a, b, and c. 6+9x^2

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

6+9x^2

Rewriting in decreasing powers of x

9x^2 +0x + 6

ax^2+bx+c

a = 9

b =0

c = 6

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33
