Erin grows pecans. The number of bushels (B) that she can produce depends on the number of inches of rainfall (R) that her orchards get. The relationship is given algebraically as follows: B = 3,000 + 800R.
Match each part of this equation with the correct term

Respuesta :

Answer:

3000 = vertical intercept

R = Independent variable

800 = slope

B= Depdendent variable

Explanation:

We need to remmber that a dependent variable is the variable that we want to predict with an indepedent variable

The independent variable is used in order to estimate the dependent variable.

Assuming linear relationship between B and R.

For this case we have a linear model given by:

[tex] B = 3000 +800R[/tex]

If we compare this to the general lineal model given by:

[tex] y = mx +b[/tex]

Where y is the dependent variable, x the independent variable, m the slope and b the intercept.

We see on this case that:

3000 = vertical intercept

R = Independent variable

800 = slope

B= Depdendent variable
