O B. -0.998 = -3.6x + 12.8
O c. y = 12.8x - 3.6
D. y = -0.998x + 12.8

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A y = -3.6x + 12.8

The line of best fit is,

⇒ y = - 3.6x + 12.8

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Now, Given that;

⇒ y = ax + b.

And, the best fitting line has values of a = - 3.6 and b = 12.8.

Hence, All you need do is put that into the general equation and try different values for it.

So you have y = - 3.6 x + 12.8

Now Let's run a couple of numbers.

The table shows 1 and 9 for the first entry. This means when x = 1, y should come pretty close to nine.

y = - 3.6(1) + 12.8

y = 9.2

Which is not a bad result for x = 1

You might want to check to see if anything else comes closer in your choices. If it does, then you have to try other points.

C

-0.998 = -3.6(1) + 12.8

This answer cannot work. We've already shown that x =1 will leave us close to 9  not -998

So, C is incorrect.

B

y = 12.8x - 3.6

Let x = 1

y = 12.8(1) - 3.6

y = 9.2 is right by coincidence. We must try another value. The hardest one is going to be 5 and - 5

y= 12.8*5 - 3.6

y = 64 - 3.6 which is no where's near - 5.

So B is wrong.

A

y = -0.998(1) + 12.8 Does this give 9 or anywhere near it? 11.802 You might argue that that is not a bad result. So let's try another pair.

x = 3. y should come to somewhere near 2.

y = -0.998 * 3 + 12.8 which comes to roughly nine. You can check this out.

It is not close enough to 2 to be acceptable.

Thus, The correct option is,

⇒ y = - 3.6x + 12.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using an angle formula, -8x+144=2x+74

Simplification:

-8x+144=2x+74

-8x+70=2x

70=10x

x=7

Therefore, each angle is 88°

Now, because ∠2 is adjacent to one of 88°, they add up to 180°

Therefore,

180°=88°+∠2

Answers

Answer:

9 basketballs

15 footballs

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of basketballs will be y.

The number of basketballs will be y + 6.

y + y + 6 = 24

2y + 6 = 24

2y + 6 - 6 = 24 - 6

2y = 18

2y ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ 2

y = 9

y + 6

9 + 6 = 15

Then  α  = 5 %  α = 0.05    

The test is a one-tail test ( we want to know if taking aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

Hypothesis test

Null Hypothesis                      H₀         μd  = 0

Alternative Hypothesis          Hₐ         μd > 0

(NOTE:)   μd (average) = Temp Before  -  Temp. after

Therefore if   μd >  0   means that there is a statistical difference between values before ( bigger ) and after  or that the aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

To find t(c)  from t-student table  df = 5  and α = 0.05

t(c)  =  2.015

To compute  t(s)

t(s)  =  μd/ sd/√n      t(s)  =  0.98/ 0.9/√6

t(s)  =  2.66

Comparing  t(s) and  t(c)

t(s) > t(c)    

Then t(s) is in the rejection region for H₀  we reject H₀  and conclude that the aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

An installation technician for a specialized communication system is dispatched to a city only when 3 or more orders have been placed. Suppose the orders follow a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.25 per week for a city with a population of 100,000 and suppose your city contains 800,000.
a. What is the probability that a technician is required after a one-week period?
b. If you are the first one in the city to place an order, what is the probability that you have to wait more than two weeks from the time you place your order until a technician is dispatched?

Answers

Answer:

0.3233

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, λ = 0.25 for a 100,000 per week

For a population of 800,000 :

λ = 800,000 / 100,000 * 0.25 = 8 * 0.25 = 2 orders per week

Probability that technician is required after one week ;

After one week, order is beyond 2 ; hence, order, x ≥ 3

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - [p(x=0) + p(x= 1) + p(x =2)]

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-λ(1 + 2¹/1! + 2²/2!)

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-2(1+2+2) = 1 - e^-2*5 = 1 - e^-10

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-2 * 10

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - 0.6766764

P(x ≥ 3) = 0.3233

B.)

Mean, λ for more than 2 weeks = 2 * 2 = 4

P(x < 2) = p(x = 0) + p(x = 1)

P(x < 2) = e^-4(0 + 4^1/1!)

P(x < 2) = e^-4(0 + 4) = e^-4(5)

P(x < 2) = e^-4(5) = 0.0183156 * 5 = 0.0915

P(x < 2) = 0.09

To find:

The length of the hypotenuse.

Solution:

It is given that [tex]m\angle C[/tex], so opposite side of this angle is the hypotenuse, i.e., c.

In a right angle triangle,

[tex]\sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

In the given triangle,

We want to solve:

We can just isolate V from the above equation, so we will get:

[tex]\frac{M_0}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } } = 2*M_0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } } = 2[/tex]
