Question 6 of 11 Step 1 of 6 No Time Limit The table below gives the list price and the number of bids received for five randomly selected items sold through online auctions. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, û = bo + bjx, for predicting the number of bids an item will receive based on the list price. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.
Price in Dollars 23 34 44 46 50
Number of Bids 1 2 4 9 10
Step 1 of 6: Find the estimated slope. Round your answer to three decimal places.​

Answers

Answer 1

The estimated slope is approximately 2.344

The given table is presented as follows;

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}Number \ of Bids &&Price \ in \ Dollars\\1&&23\\2&&34\\4&&44\\9&&46\\10&&50\end{array}[/tex]

The regression line formula to be considered = [tex]\bar u = b_0 + b\cdot \bar x[/tex]

The required parameter is;

The estimated slope

The method to find the estimate slope;

The least squares regression formula (method) is presented as follows;

[tex]\bar u = b_0 + b\cdot \bar x[/tex]

Where;

b₀ = The y-intercept

[tex]\mathbf{ b = \dfrac{\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right) \times \left(u_i - \bar u\right) }{\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right )^2 } = The \ estimated \ slope}[/tex]

From MS Excel, we have;

[tex]\bar x[/tex] = 5.2, [tex]\bar u[/tex] = 39.4

[tex]\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right) \times \left(u_i - \bar u\right)[/tex] = 156.6

[tex]{\sum \left(x_i - \bar x\right )^2 }[/tex] = 66.8

Therefore;

The estimated slope, b = 156.6/66.8 ≈ 2.344 (by rounding the answer to three decimal places)

The average 30- to 39-year old man is 69.5 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 2.7 inches, while the average 30- to 39-year old woman is 64.2 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 3.2 inches. Who is relatively taller based on their comparison to their gender, LeBron James at 81 inches or Candace Parker at 76 inches?
a) Candace is relatively taller because she has a larger z-score.
b) LeBron is relatively taller because he has a larger z-score.
c) LeBron is relatively taller because he has a smaller z-score.
d) Candace is relatively taller because she has a smaller z-score.

Answers

Answer:

b) LeBron is relatively taller because he has a larger z-score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

LeBron James:

Height of 81 inches, while the average 30- to 39-year old man is 69.5 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 2.7 inches, which means that we have to find Z when [tex]X = 81, \mu = 69.5, \sigma = 2.7[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{81 - 69.5}{2.7}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 4.26[/tex]

Candace Parker:

Height of 76 inches, while the average 30- to 39-year old woman is 64.2 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 3.2 inches. This means that we have to find Z when [tex]X = 76, \mu = 64.2, \sigma = 3.2[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{76 - 64.2}{3.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.69[/tex]

Who is relatively taller?

Due to the higher z-score, LeBron James, and thus, the correct answer is given by option b.

At a concession stand; three hot dogs and two hamburgers cost $9.75; two hot dogs and three hamburgers cost $10.25. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

hot dog: $1.75hamburger: $2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the cost of a hot dog and a hamburger, respectively. The the two purchases can be described by ...

  3x +2y -9.75 = 0

  2x +3y -10.25 = 0

We can list the coefficients of these general-form equations in 2 rows, listing the first one again at the end:

  3, 2, -9.75, 3

  2, 3, -10.25, 2

Now, we can form differences of cross-products in adjacent pairs of columns:

  d1 = (3)(3) -(2)(2) = 9 -4 = 5

  d2 = (2)(-10.25) -(3)(-9.75) = -20.50 +29.25 = 8.75

  d3 = (-9.75)(2) -(-10.25)(3) = -19.50 +30.75 = 11.25

Then the solutions are found from ...

  1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3

  x = d2/d1 = 8.75/5 = 1.75

  y = d3/d1 = 11.25/5 = 2.25

The cost of one hot dog is $1.75; the cost of one hamburger is $2.25.

(d) What sample size is needed if the error must not exceed $1.00?

n =

Answers

First, we find the point estimate, given by the sample mean. Then, with this, and the standard deviation of the population given, we can find the margin of error, and then, we can find the confidence interval and the minimum sample size necessary.

Doing this, we get that:

a) The point estimate for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is $18.21.

b) The 95% margin of error is $1.64.

c) The 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is: $16.57 ≤ µ ≤ $19.85.

d) The sample size needed is 135.

Question a:

The point estimate for the population mean is the sample mean, which is of $18.21.

The point estimate for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is $18.21.

Question b:

We have to find our  level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of .

That is z with a p-value of , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which  is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{5.92}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.64[/tex]

The 95% margin of error is $1.64.

(c) State the 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 18.21 - 1.64 = 16.57

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 18.21 + 1.64 = 19.85

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is: $16.57 ≤ µ ≤ $19.85.

(d) What sample size is needed if the error must not exceed $1.00?

This is n for which M = 1. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1.96\frac{5.92}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*5.92[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*5.92)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 134.6[/tex]

Rounding up:

The sample size needed is 135.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following sets and events:

S = {Albert, Betty, Abel, Jack, Patty, Meagan}

F = {Betty, Patty, Meagan},

H = {Abel, Meagan}

P = {Betty, Abel}.

In order to get FnH

The intersection of F and H is the element that is common to both sets. Hence for the set given, we can see that Meagan is common to both sets, therefore:

A right prism of height 15 cm has bases that are right triangles with legs 5 cm and 12 cm. Find the total surface area of the prism. Please explain.
a) 315 cm2 squared
b) 480 cm2 squared
c) 510 cm2 squared
d) 570 cm2

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a right prism = 2(Area of the triangular base) + Ph

Here, P = Perimeter of the base

h = Height of the prism

Area of the triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Height})(\text{Base})[/tex]

                                             = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(5)(12)[/tex]

                                             = 30 cm²

Height of the prism = 15 cm

Perimeter of the base = (5 + 12 + 13)

                                     = 30 cm

Surface area of the right prism = 2(30) + 30(15)

                                                   = 60 + 450

                                                   = 510 cm²

Therefore, Option (C) will be the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

x is sin(angle 24/30)×24

how do we get the angle at 24/30 ?

by using the extended Pythagoras for baselines opposite other than 90 degrees.

c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(angle opposite of c)

in our example the angle 24/30 is opposite of the side 18.

so,

18² = 24² + 30² - 2×24×30×cos(angle 24/30)

324 = 576 + 900 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)

324 = 1476 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)

1440×cos(angle 24/30) = 1152

cos(angle 24/30) = 1152/1440 = 576/720 = 288/360 = 144/180 = 72/90 = 36/45 = 12/15 = 4/5

angle 24/30 = 36.9 degrees

x = sin(36.9) × 24 = 14.4
