Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the given slope (m) and y-intercept (b)

The given slope (m) is -3 and the y-intercept (b) is 9.

Step 2: Substitute the values of m and b into the general form of the linear equation, \(y = mx + b\).

By substituting the given values into the general form, we get the equation: y = -3x + 9

Final Answer:

The linear equation that satisfies the given conditions is: y = -3x + 9

Bob's Auto Parts were currently 15 new cars, 9 new trucks, and 3 used trucks. Bob spent 10 hours on each new car, 8 hours on each new truck, and 4 hours on each used truck. Do not round intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest hundredth. The total of the hours that Bob spends on trucks?

The accompanying scatterplot shows the number of passengers departing from an airport month by month since the start of 1997 to May of 2006. Time is shown as years since 1990, with fractional years used to represent each month. (Thus, June of 1997 is 7.5 -halfway through the 7th year after 1990.) The regression and the residuals plot are also given in the accompanying display. Complete parts a) through g). d) Would you use this model to predict the numbers of passengers in 2010 (YearsSince1990=20)? Explain. A. No, because that would extrapolate too far from the years that were observed. B. Yes, because the year 2010 is close enough to the last observed value to be a safe estimate. C. Yes, because the value of R^2 is large enough to safely predict the number of passengers. D. No, because air traffic is too random to predict for any time period. e) There's a point near the middle of this time span with a large negative residual. Can you explain this outlier? A. The negative residual is September 2001. Air traffic was artificially low following the attacks on 9/11. B. The negative residual is January 1998. The extremely high ticket prices that year caused air traffic to decline. C. The negative residual is July 1999. There is no apparent cause for the decline in air traffic. D. The negative residual is March 2004. A boom in the economy was causing higher than normal air traffic as more people were traveling abroad. f) The data has been updated through 2016 and plotted on a new scatterplot, shown to the right. If the model for the data through 2006 had been used to predict the number of passengers in 2010, how well would it have worked? Why?
