The scatter plot shows the systolic blood pressure of people of several different ages.

The equation represents the linear model for this data.

y = x + 95


According to the model, how much does the systolic blood pressure increase for each year of age?

A. 1 mm Hg per year

B. 5 mm Hg per year

C. 15 mm Hg per year

D. 95 mm Hg per year

E. 110 mm Hg per year


According to the model, what is the systolic blood pressure of someone who is 42 years old?

___mm Hg

The scatter plot shows the systolic blood pressure of people of several different ages The equation represents the linear model for this data y x 95 According t class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

We have been given the function:

y = x+95

Whatever value we substitute for x  there will be 95 increase in y for each value of x.

Therefore, option D is correct that is systolic blood pressure increase for each  year of age is 95 mm Hg per year.

According to model the systolic blood pressure of someone who is 42 years old is

Put x=42 since, x axis represents the age of people in the given function.

y=42 +95 =137

Hence, the blood pressure of 42 years of age of a person is 137 mm Hg.
