Bus and subway ridership for the summer months in London, England, is believed to be tied heavility to the number of tourists visiting the city. DUring the past 12 years, the data on the next page have been obtained.

Year (Summer Months) Number of Tourists (In Millions) Ridership In Millions)
1 7 1.5
2 2 1.0
3 0 1.3
4 4 1.5
5 14 2.5
6 15 14
7 16 24
8 12 2.0
9 14 10
10 20 4.4
11 15 3.4
12 7 1.7

Plot these data and decide if a linear model is reasonable.

The data can be represented as a linear model.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is provided for the Bus and subway ridership for the summer months in London, England for 12 years.

The data can be plotted as follows:

Step 1:

Mark the x-axis as the number of tourists and y-axis as the Ridership (in millions).

Step 2:

Take the scale as follows:

x-axis: 1 unit = 5 tourists

y-axis: 1 unit = 5 million

Step 3:

Plot the points corresponding to the x and y axis.

For example, for year 1 the point to marked is (7, 1.5), for year 2 the point to be marked is (2, 1) and so on.

The graph for the data is provided below.

A linear model is used to predict the values of the response variable based on one or more than one predictor variable.

The response and predictor variables has a straight line relationship.

In this case the response variable is Ridership and the predictor variable is the Number of tourists.

As the ridership value can be estimated from the number of tourists value the data can be represented as a linear model.

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
