Use the functions given by \(f(x)=\frac{1}{8} x-3\) and \(g(x)=x^{3}\) to find the indicated value or function. $$ \left(f^{-1} \circ g^{-1}\right)(1) $$
Determine whether the function has an inverse function. If it does, find the inverse function. $$ f(x)=(x+3)^{2}, \quad x \geq-3 $$
The linear model with the least sum of square differences is called the _____ _____ _____ line.
Determine whether the function has an inverse function. If it does, find the inverse function. $$ f(x)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll} -x, & x \leq 0 \\ x^{2}-3 x, & x>0 \end{array}\right. $$
The lengths (in feet) of the winning men's discus throws in the Olympics from 1920 through 2008 are listed below. (Source: International Olympic Committee) $$\begin{array}{llllll} 1920 & 146.6 & 1956 & 184.9 & 1984 & 218.5 \\ 1924 & 151.3 & 1960 & 194.2 & 1988 & 225.8 \\ 1928 & 155.3 & 1964 & 200.1 & 1992 & 213.7 \\ 1932 & 162.3 & 1968 & 212.5 & 1996 & 227.7 \\ 1936 & 165.6 & 1972 & 211.3 & 2000 & 227.3 \\ 1948 & 173.2 & 1976 & 221.5 & 2004 & 229.3 \\ 1952 & 180.5 & 1980 & 218.7 & 2008 & 225.8 \end{array}$$ (a) Sketch a scatter plot of the data. Let \(y\) represent the length of the winning discus throw (in feet) and let \(t=20\) represent 1920 (b) Use a straightedge to sketch the best-fitting line through the points and find an equation of the line. (c) Use the regression feature of a graphing utility to find the least squares regression line that fits the data. (d) Compare the linear model you found in part (b) with the linear model given by the graphing utility in part (c). (e) Use the models from parts (b) and (c) to estimate the winning men's discus throw in the year 2012 .
