2014/9/16 Linear Equations Ad Options Ads by Vidx Linear Equations A linear equation is an equation for a straight line These are all linear equations: y = 2x+1 5x = 6+3y y/2 = 3 x Let us look more closely at one example: Example: y = 2x+1 is a linear equation: The graph of y = 2x+1 is a straight line When x increases‚ y increases twice as fast‚ hence 2x When x is 0‚ y is already 1. Hence +1 is also needed So: y = 2x + 1 Here are some example values: http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/linear-equations

Plots Linear regression is a crucial tool in identifying and defining key elements influencing data. Essentially‚ the researcher is using past data to predict future direction. Regression allows you to dissect and further investigate how certain variables affect your potential output. Once data has been received this information can be used to help predict future results. Regression is a form of forecasting that determines the value of an element on a particular situation. Linear regression

Describe the payout policy of Linear Technologies historically. Describe Linear’s current cash position and its financing needs. The company initiated its dividend in 1993 with a relatively conservative payout ratio of 15%‚ based on a quarterly dividend of $0.05/share/quarter ($0.00625 split adjusted as per Exhibit 3). As of 3Q2003‚ the dividend is also $0.05/share/quarter‚ adjusted for stock splits‚ which translates into a payout ratio of . The payout ratio is currently 27.5% on an as adjusted

Linear Functions There are three different ways to write linear functions. They are slope-intercept‚ point-slope‚ and standard form. There are certain situations where it is better to use one way than another to solve a problem. It is important to understand and comprehend the mechanics of these three forms so that you know what form to use when solving a problem. The first form‚ point-slope‚ is written as y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope and x1 and y1 correspond to a point on the line. It’s good to
