To get this we divide the total miles she ran for the weeks by the no of weeks she ran.
Total miles =5.5 +7.25+10= 22.25 miles altogether.
no of weeks =3.
Average miles = 22.75 /3=7.583333≅7.58(nearest hundredth)
Consider the scatterplot above. Write a sentence explaining the meaning of the value of the slope for this linear model. The is an average of per year .
Answer:
Slope: The percent that voted falls by 0.1271 units per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a regression line represent the average rate of change in the dependent variable (y) based upon the changes in the independent variable (x).
In this case the regression equation provided is:
y = -0.1271 x + 307.53
The slope of the line is -0.1271.
The dependent variable is the percent that voted and the independent variable is the year.
The slope of -0.1271 indicates that every year, on average, the percent that voted decreases by 0.1271 units.
Or the percent that voted falls by 0.1271 units per year.

A cognitive psychologist would like to evaluate the claim that the omega-3 fatty acids can help improve memory in normal adult humans. One group of participants is given a large dose of fish extract containing the Omega-3 (500 mg), and a second group is given a placebo containing no Omega-3 (0 mg). The researcher asks each participant to read the front page of a local newspaper thoroughly every morning and to take their prescribed dosage (of either Omega-3 or placebo) immediately afterwards. The researcher gives each participant a memory test at the end of two weeks and records how many news items each participant remembers from the past three weeks of news. Answer the following:
A) What names would you give the independent and dependent variables;
B) Is the dependent variable discrete or continuous?
C) What scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio; and continuous or discrete) is used to measure the independent variable?
D) What research method is being used (experimental or observational)? Explain why you conclude that the research method is one or the other.
Answer:
(a)
Independent Variable- Dosage of Omega-3 Fatty AcidsDependent Variable - Number of news item remembered(b)Discrete
(c)Ratio Scale and Discrete Variable
(d) Experimental Method
Step-by-step explanation:
The psychologist wants to evaluate the claim that omega-3 fatty acids can help improve memory in normal adult humans.
(a)In the study, the participants in the two groups were given fish extracts containing Omega-3 (500 mg) and no Omega-3 (0 mg).
The memory test involves measuring the number of items each participant remembers from the past three weeks of news.
Therefore:
Independent Variable- Dosage of Omega-3Dependent Variable - Number of news item remembered(b) The dependent variable is discrete since the number of news items remembered can only be whole numbers.
(c)The independent variable is in milligrams of Omega-3 where the placebo is 0 mg. This is a ratio scale since it has an absolute zero.
Since the dosage is given in multiples of 50mg, it is a discrete variable.
(d)Since the psychologist seeks to manipulate the conditions of the study by introducing Omega-3 to some of the participants and placebo to other participants, it is an experimental distribution.
The height of a stream of water from the nozzle of a fire hose is modeled by h(x) =-0.03x2+ 2x + 38 where h(x) is the height in feet, of the stream of water x feet from the fire truck. 1. What is the maximum height the water from this nozzle can reach? What is the maximum distance from the firetruck a firefighter can stand and still reach the fire?
Answer:
height: 71.33 feetreach: 82.10 feetStep-by-step explanation:
The equation can be rewritten to vertex form:
h(x) = -0.03(x² - 200/3x) +38
h(x) = -0.03(x² -200/3x +(100/3)²) +38 +.03(100/3)²
h(x) = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3
The vertex is (33 1/3, 71 1/3), so the maximum height the water will reach is 71 1/3 feet.
__
When h(x) = 0, the water reaches as far as it possibly can.
0 = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3
(-71 1/3)/(-0.03) = (x -33 1/3)² . . . subtract 71 1/3; divide by -0.03
√(2377.78) = x -33.33 . . . . . . . . positive square root
82.10 ≈ x
The maximum distance the water will reach is 82.10 feet.
True or False - the following scenario depicts an independent relationship between variables (tree growth and air quality): 20% of trees growing in a particular region are not growing to their expected height. In a particular neighborhood in that region, the Air Quality Index is labeled as "Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups" or worse 30% of the time. 10% of the trees in the region grow in this neighborhood. If you randomly measured the growth of a tree in that neighborhood, then the probability that that tree is not growing to its expected height is 33.33%.
Autism is a serious and lifelong disability that is characterized by a severely decreased ability to engage in communication and social interaction. In 1998 citizens in a New Jersey town were concerned about the number of children diagnosed with autism, and a study was undertaken to establish the prevalence in the community. Data from the study are reported below:
Numbers of Children Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder
Age Category (y) Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder Number of Children in Population
3-5 19 3479
6-10 17 5417
Required:
a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.
b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000
Answer:
a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.
3-5: prevalence rate = 0.55%6-10: prevalence rate = 0.31%b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000
3-5: prevalence rate = 5.5 per thousand6-10: prevalence rate = 3.1 pér thousandStep-by-step explanation:
Generally prevalence is calculated using the following formula:
(number of people with autism / number of people measured) x 100%
age category
3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 100% = 0.55%
6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 100% = 0.31%
if you want to convert to a rate per 1,000, allyou need to do is multiply by 1,000 instead of 100
3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 1,000 = 5.5
6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 1,000 = 3.1

Explain why the terms of the polynomial y2 + 7 are said to be realitvley prime
Answer:
The terms of the polynomial are relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are said to be relatively prime if their greatest common factor ( GCF ) is 1 .
Now, the expression we are given in the question is a polynomial;
y² + 7.
The terms of the polynomial y² + 7 are y² and 7 and have no common factor and in fact cannot be factorized further. Thus, these terms are said to be relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.
The container of a breakfast cereal usually lists the number of calories and the amounts of protein, carbohydrate, and fat contained in one serving of the cereal. The amounts for two common cereals are given below. Suppose a mixture of these two cereals is to be prepared that contains exactly 295 calories, 9 g of protein, 48 g of carbohydrate, and 8 g of fat.
a. Set up a vector equation for this problem. Include a statement of what the variables in your equation represent.
b. Write an equivalent matrix equation, and then determine if the desired mixture of the two cereals can be prepared.
$$\begin{matrix}
\text{Nutrient} & \text{General Mills Cherrios} & \text{Quaker 100% Natura Cereal}\
\text{Calories} & \text{110} & \text{130}\
\text{Protein (g)} & \text{4} & \text{3}\
\text{Carbhydrate (g)} & \text{20} & \text{18}\
\text{Fat (g)} & \text{2} & \text{5}\
\end{matrix}$$
Answer:
(a)
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}110\\4\\20\\2\end{array}\right] x+\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\3\\18\\5\end{array}\right] y=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}295\\9\\48\\8\end{array}\right][/tex]
(b)
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}110&130&295\\4&3&9\\20&18&48\\2&5&8\end{array}\right][/tex]
1.5 servings of cheerios and 1 serving of Quaker 100% natural cereal will give the desired mixture.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the mixture of cereals below:
[tex]\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}&$General Mills &$Quaker \\$Nutrient&$Cherrios &100\% $Natural Cereal\\----&---&---\\$Calories&110&130\\$Protein (g)&4&3\\$Carbhydrate (g)&20&18\\$Fat (g)&2&5\end{array}\right|[/tex]
Suppose a mixture of these two portions of cereals is to be prepared that contain exactly 295 calories, 9 g of protein, 48 g of carbohydrate, and 8 g of fat.
(a)Let x be the number of servings of Cheerios
Let y be the number of servings of Natural Cereal
From the table above, we have
[tex]110x+130y=295\\4x+3y=9\\20x+18y=48\\2x+5y=8[/tex]
Then a vector equation for this problem is:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}110\\4\\20\\2\end{array}\right] x+\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\3\\18\\5\end{array}\right] y=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}295\\9\\48\\8\end{array}\right][/tex]
(b) Next, we obtain an equivalent matrix equation of the data
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}110&130\\4&3\\20&18\\2&5\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}295\\9\\48\\8\end{array}\right][/tex]
This is of the form AX=B. To solve for X we, therefore have an equivalence matrix:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}110&130&295\\4&3&9\\20&18&48\\2&5&8\end{array}\right][/tex]
Next, we row reduce the matrix using a calculator to obtain the matrix:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&1.5\\0&1&1\\0&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right][/tex]
Therefore:
1x+0=1.5
0x+y=1
x=1.5 and y=1
To get the required mixture, we use 1.5 servings of cheerios and 1 serving of Quaker 100% natural cereal.

Robin read somewhere that adding salt to water while heating it will raise the temperature of
the water causing it to boil faster. To test this claim, she filled 30 identical pots with one quart
of water. She randomly selected 15 of the pots and added 1 teaspoon of salt. She then placed
each pot on identical burners set to the highest setting. She measured the water temperature
In each pot after 5 minutes.
Is Robin's research method an example of an observational study experiment, or
simulation?
b
If Robin does find that there is a difference between the water temperatures in the pots
with salt compared to those without can she conclude that the salt caused the
difference in temperature?
Answer:
a. An experiment
b. No
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Robin's research method can be concluded to be an experiment because she has a testable group (pots of water with salt) and a control group (pots of water without salt).
2. Based on this alone, she cannot conclude that the salt caused the
difference in temperature because she has not set some appropriate conditions which are to be met for this test.
How do you solve this problem? population proportion is to be estimated from a sample of 400 with a sample proportion of 0.1. Approximate the 95% confidence interval of the population proportion
Answer:
(0.0706, 0.1294)
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval of a proportion is:
CI = p ± CV × SE
where p is the proportion,
CV is the critical value (z score or t score),
and SE is the standard error.
The sample is large enough to estimate as normal. For 95% confidence level, CV = z = 1.96.
Standard error for a proportion is:
SE = √(pq/n)
SE = √(0.1 × 0.9 / 400)
SE = 0.015
The confidence interval is:
CI = 0.1 ± (1.96)(0.015)
CI = (0.0706, 0.1294)
Round as needed.

n is an integer.
Write down the possible values of n.
I
Answer:
since n is an integer you substitute n with all the integers. But since that is too much you should use infinity.
n=[-∞,+∞] where -∞ is a negative infinity which stands for negative numbers and +∞ is a positive infinity where it stands for positive numbers.
an integer contains negative and positive numbers so above is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that it costs $200 per day to search for chanterelle mushrooms at Pt. Reyes National Seashore. On an average day, the total weight of mushrooms M found at Pt. Reyes is M = 100x-x^2 pounds ,where x is the number of people mushroom hunting on that day. Chanterelles can be sold for $60 per pound. How many more people will go mushroom hunting than is socially optimal?
Answer:
For an overall profit, we need at least 97 people to go mushroom hunting.
Any number of people that is more than the socially optimal number should go mushroom hunting on any given day.
Step-by-step explanation:
The socially optimal number of people that will go mushroom hunting is the number where amount spent to go mushroom hunting equally balances the amount obtained by selling the mushrooms obtained.
If x people go mushroom hunting in a day, the total cost of hunting for that day = 200x
The amount of mushroom obtained is given as
M = (100x - x²) in pounds
The selling price of 1 pound = $60
The cost of M pounds = 60M = 60(100x - x²)
= (6000x - 60x²)
At socially optimal number,
200x = 6000x - 60x²
60x² - 6000x + 200x = 0
60x² - 5800x = 0
x(60x - 5800)
x = 0 or (60x - 5800) = 0
x = 0 or x = (5800/60) = 96.67
Socially optimal number of people = 0 or 96.67
For realistic purposes, we take the socially optimal number of people that went mushroom hunting as 96.67
Any number above this number will result in an overall profit, and any number below it results in an overall loss.
So, for an overall profit, we need at least 97 people to go mushroom hunting.
Hope this Helps!!
Answer:
48 people
Step-by-step explanation:
When allocating resources to a particular task it is important to assign optimal units of resources.
In this scenario if the people hunting mushrooms are too many they will not make profit. But an optimal number will guarantee everyone makes positive profit.
Optimal = (M÷x)Px - 200= 0
Optimal= {(100x -x^2) ÷ x} * 60 = 200
Optimal = 6000 - 60x = 200
x= 96.666~ 97 people
However to maximise profit MTB = MTC
Socially Optimal quantity = 60(100x - x^2) -200
∂(Socially Optimal amount) ÷ ∂ x= 6000 - 120x - 200
x = 48.33~ 48 people
So 48 more people go mushroom hunting than is socially optimal

For each roll you start with paying 2 dollars and you only with 10 dollars one out of 6 rolls (on average).
So the cost for one play is 2 dollars and your win is 10/6.
Value is -2+10/6=-1/3 dollars
So you lose 1/3 dollars on average with each game
since you have no limited rolls u put 1/5

What is a perfect cube and how can you check if a given number is a perfect cube? Explain why.
Answer:
Read below.
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect cube is a number cubed (If that makes sense). Such as 3³ will equal a perfect cube because it's being multiplied by itself 3 times. 3×3×3=9. It will work for any whole number. You can check if a given number is a perfect cube by using the cube root ([tex]\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]).
Hope it makes sense!
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect cube is a cube whose cube root can be easily gotten by using methods such as factor method eg 125 is a perfect cube whose cube root is 5. You can know if a number is a perfect cube 1.) if it gives you a perfect cube root

V. Money Magazine reported that the average price of gasoline in the United States during the first quarter of 2008 was $3.46. Assume that the price reported by Money is the population mean, and the standard deviation σ is $0.15. a. What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 gas stations is within $0.03 of the population mean?
Answer:
[tex] z=\frac{3.43 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = -1.095[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{3.49 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = 1.095[/tex]
And we can find this probability using the normal standard table and we got:
[tex] P(-1.095<z<1.095) = P(z<1.095) -P(z<-1.095) =0.863 -0.137= 0.726[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the price of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
[tex]X \sim N(3.46,0.15)[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu=3.46[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=0.15[/tex]
And for this case we want to find the following probability:
[tex] P(3.43 \leq \bar X \leq 3.49)[/tex]
And we can use the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
If we find the z score for the limits we got:
[tex] z=\frac{3.43 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = -1.095[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{3.49 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = 1.095[/tex]
And we can find this probability using the normal standard table and we got:
[tex] P(-1.095<z<1.095) = P(z<1.095) -P(z<-1.095) =0.863 -0.137= 0.726[/tex]
Find the equation for the plane through the points Upper P0 (-2 ,2 ,-5),Q0 (1,2,-1), and Upper R0 (-1,-5,4 ).
The equation of plane is:________
Answer:
28x - 23y - 21z = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find two vectors in the plane as:
vector PQ = Q - P = (1, 2, -1) - (-2, 2, -5) = (3, 0, 4)
vector PR = R - P = (-1, -5, 4) - (-2 ,2 ,-5) = (1, -7, 9)
Then, we need to find a normal vector to the plane as:
PQ x RQ = ((0*9)-(4*-7), -(3*(9)-(4*1), (3*-7)-(0*1))
PQ x RQ = (28, -23, -21)
Finally, the equation of a plane is:
A(x-x0) + B(y-y0) + C(z-z0) = 0
Where (A,B,C) is a normal vector to the plane and (x0, y0, z0) is a point in the plane. So, replacing (A,B,C) by (28, -23, -21) and (x0, y0, z0) by P0(-2,2,-5), we can write the equation of the plane as:
28(x+2) - 23(y-2) - 21(z+5) = 0
Solving, we get:
28x + 56 - 23y + 46 - 21z - 105 = 0
28x - 23y - 21z - 3 = 0
28x - 23y - 21z = 3
After 2 hours, there are 1,400 mL of fluids remaining in a patient’s IV. The fluids drip at a rate of 300 mL per hour. Let x be the time passed, in hours, and y be the amount of fluid left in the IV, in mL. Write a linear function that models this scenario.
Answer:
[tex] y(2) = 1400[/tex]
Using this condition we got:
[tex]1400= -300*2 +b[/tex]
And solving for b we got:
[tex] b= 1400+ 600= 2000[/tex]
So then our linear function is given by:
[tex] y = -300x +2000[/tex]
Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to set up a linear function like this one:
[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]
Where y is the amount of fluid left, m the slope and b the initial amount. From the info given we know thatm = -300. And we also have the following condition:
[tex] y(2) = 1400[/tex]
Using this condition we got:
[tex]1400= -300*2 +b[/tex]
And solving for b we got:
[tex] b= 1400+ 600= 2000[/tex]
So then our linear function is given by:
[tex] y = -300x +2000[/tex]
Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing
Diya spent 2/5 of her money on a dress and 1/2 of the reminder on a doll. She spent $8 more o the dress than the doll. How much money did she have left?
year 6 Mathematics
Answer:
$24
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 — dress
3/5 — remainder
1/2 of remainder = 1/2 × 3/5 = 3/10 — doll
rewrite fraction spent on dress: 4/10
dress - doll = $8
4/10 - 3/10 = 1/10
1/10 = $8
fraction of money left = 10/10 - 4/10 - 3/10
= 3/10
amount of money left = $8 × 3
$24
To examine the effect of high-dose green tea extract on weight loss, researchers conducted a randomized, double-blind trial on a random sample of 115 women with obesity from Taiwan. Some of these women were randomly assigned to the main treatment group taking a high-dose green tea extract ("EGCG") daily for 12 weeks. The published abstract of this 2015 study reports that, "Significant weight loss, from 76.8 ± 11.3 kg to 75.7 ± 11.5 kg (p = 0.025), was observed in the treatment group after 12 weeks of high-dose EGCG treatment."
Which of the following inference procedures would be used to reach the quoted conclusion?
a. Z procedure for a proportion
b. Chi-square for two-way tables
c. Chi-square for goodness of fit
d. Two sample t procedure for two means
e. One sample or matched-pairs t procedure for a mean
f. ANOVA for several means
Answer:
d. Two sample t procedure for two means.
Step-by-step explanation:
The study have a treatment group, which is the group of women that are taking the high dose of green tea extract, and a control group, in order to compare. They are assigned randomly to each group.
Then, the difference fo the two sample means is calculated and a t-test is performed in order to conclude if the two populations means are significantly different.
Apparently they are significantly different, as this is the conclusion with a P-value of 0.025.
