Select the correct answer. A dietician gathered data about the amounts of flour, baking powder, and butter used for several different muffin recipes. She used a graphing tool to organize the data in different scatter plots and found the following lines of best fit:

The relationship between the baking powder used, x, and the flour used, y, is modeled by the equation y = 0.13x + 0.92, and the correlation coefficient for the data is 0.953.

The relationship between the baking powder used, x, and the butter used, y, is modeled by the equation y = 0.24x + 0.76, and the correlation coefficient for the data is 0.802.

The relationship between the flour used, x, and the butter used, y, is modeled by the equation y = 0.86x + 0.52, and the correlation coefficient for the data is 0.693. Which line of best fit can the dietician expect to produce the most reliable predictions?

A. the line modeling the baking powder and the butter used

B. the line modeling the baking powder and the flour used

C. the line modeling the flour and the butter used

D. All three lines will give equally reliable predictions.

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1

in if you ask questions, the points are taken from your total and given to the one who answered it..

so if i have 30 points and i ask a question for 5 points, then when someone asks a question i will lose 5 points and the answerer earns 5
