Starting with a fresh bar of soap, you weigh the bar each day after you take a shower. Then you find the regression line for predicting weight from number of days elapsed. The slope of this line will be:__________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope will be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the regression line tells us about the relationship or behavior of the dependent and independent variables. In the scenario above, where the weight is being compared with the number of days elapsed. What is expected of the weight and quantity of a bar soap each time it is used for a shower is that it will decrease in weight. Therefore, as the number of days increases, and hence, number of showers rise, the weight of soap will decrease. Hence, we'll obtain a negative slope, one in which the increase in a variable leads to decrease in the other.

Answer:

The answer is [tex]x=\frac{4(+-)\sqrt{19} }{3}[/tex] in exact form or [tex]x=2.7863[/tex], [tex]x=-0.1196[/tex] in decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, start by moving all expression to the left side of the equation, which will include subtracting [tex]3x^2[/tex] and adding 1 to both sides of the equation. The equation will look like [tex]8x-3x^2+1=0[/tex].

Then, use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the equation. The quadratic formula looks like [tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex].

For this problem, the quadratic variables are as follows:

[tex]a=-3\\b=8\\c=1[/tex]

The next step is to substitute the values [tex]a=-3[/tex], [tex]b=8[/tex], and [tex]c=1[/tex] into the quadratic formula and solve for x. The quadratic formula will look like [tex]\frac{-8(+-)\sqrt{8^2-4(-3)(1)} }{2*-3}[/tex]. To simplify the equation, start by simplifying the numerator, which will look like [tex]x=\frac{-8(+-)2\sqrt{19} }{2*-3}[/tex]. Then, multiply 2 by -3 and simplify the equation, which will look like [tex]x=\frac{4(+-)\sqrt{19} }{3}[/tex]. The final answer is [tex]x=\frac{4(+-)\sqrt{19} }{3}[/tex] in exact form. In decimal form, the final answer is [tex]x=2.7863[/tex], [tex]x=-0.1196[/tex].

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  185°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle internal angle at Y is 145° -45° = 100°. Since the triangle is isosceles, the internal angles at X and Z are both (180° -100°)/2 = 40°. Then the bearing of Z from X is the bearing of Y from X less the internal angle at X:

  (45° +180°) -40° = 185°.

Z from X is 185°.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/10 ⋅ 1 7/10 = ?

41/10 ⋅ 17/10 = 697/100

697/100 = 6 97/100

6 97/100 bags

Answer:

697/100 bags

or

6 97/100 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

it is fractions. just plain and simple.

when you eat a pizza slice, it is usually one of 8 slices that make the whole pizza. 1/8 or one 8th. meaning that the whole thing is 8/8 or eight 8ths.

the same for 10ths or any other fractions.

4 1/10 bags = 41/10 bags

1 7/10 times = 17/10 times

and now we multiply fractions, as 17/10 times is similar to 2 times or 3 times something - we multiply by this factor.

41/10 × 17/10

as we learned in early elementary school : numerators (top part of the fraction) are multiplied with each other, and denominators (bottom part) are multiplied with each other. and then we simplify the result as much as possible.

41/10 × 17/10 = (41×17) / (10×10) = 697/100

no simplification is possible, sadly.

but that means he used almost 7 bags of hot dog buns.

exactly 6 full bags and 97/100 of the 7th bag.

so, either

697/100 bags

or

6 97/100 bags

or as alternative (not wanted here in this example but just FYI)

In how many ways can 10 people be divided into three groups with 2, 3, and 5 people respectively?

Answers

Answer:

2100

Step-by-step explanation:

In how many ways can a group of 10 people be divided into three groups consisting of 2,3, and 5 people?

First, you need to choose 4 people to fill the first group.

The number of ways is (104) which equals to 210.

Then, pick 3 more people out of the remaining 6 to be in the second group. And then, pick 3 more out of the remaining 3.

However, we need to divide it by 2, since we don’t really care on the order of selection of group.

(63)(33)/2=10

So, there are 210 x 10 = 2100 ways

Answer:

hmmm I read JeremyBrooks answer... I think that it might be different...

i think it is 2520

of the 10 you first choose 2

10 choose 2 = 45 ways

in each of the 45 "chooses" you now

pick a group of 3 of the 8 left

8 choose 3 = that is 56

of the five people left you choose 5

5 choose 5 = 1

so the possibilities are 45*56 * 1 = 2520

A clothing manufacturer purchased 50 yd of cotton and 80 yd of wool for a total cost of $1,330. Another purchase, at the same prices, included 75 yd of cotton and 20 yd of wool for a total cost of $895. Find the cost per yard of the cotton and of the wool.

Answers

Answer:

The cotton is $9 per yard and the wool is $11 per yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where c is the cost per yard for the cotton and w is the cost per yard for the wool.

50c + 80w = 1330

75c + 20w = 895

Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -4:

50c + 80w = 1330

-300c - 80w = -3580

Add these together and solve for c:

-250c = -2250

c = 9

Plug in 9 as c into one of the equations, and solve for w:

50c + 80w = 1330

50(9) + 80w = 1330

450 + 80w = 1330

80w = 880

w = 11

The cotton is $9 per yard and the wool is $11 per yard.

An investigator compares the durability of two different compounds used in the manufacture of a certain automobile brake lining. A sample of 127 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 42,814 miles. A sample of 163 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 37,197 miles. Assume that the population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 1819 miles, while the population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 1401 miles. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2.
Step 1 of 3 is Point estimate so 42,814 - 37,197 = 5,617

Calculate the margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Round your answer to six decimal places.
Step 3 of 3:
Construct the 98% confidence interval. Round your answers to the nearest whole number. (lower and upper endpoint)

Answers

Answer:

The point estimate is 5,617.

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.  

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Compound 1:

127 brakes, average brake life of 42,814 miles, population standard deviation of 1819 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_1 = 42814[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \frac{1819}{\sqrt{127}} = 161.41[/tex]

Compound 2:

163 brakes, average brake life of 37,197 miles, population standard deviation of 1401 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_2 = 37197[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \frac{1401}{\sqrt{163}} = 109.73[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 42814 - 37197 = 5617[/tex]

The point estimate is 5,617.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{161.41^2 + 109.73^2} = 195.18[/tex]

Confidence interval

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.327[/tex].  

Margin of error:

[tex]M = zs = 195.18*2.327 = 454.18386 [/tex]

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

For the confidence interval, as we round to the nearest whole number, we round it 454. So

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu - zs = \mu - M = 5617 - 454 = 5163[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu + zs = \mu + M = 5617 + 454 = 6071[/tex]

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).
