You use a line of best fit for a set of data to make a prediction about an unknown value. The correlation coefficient for your data set is -0.015. Can you be confident that your predicted value will be reasonably close to the actual value?

a. Yes, because the correlation is close to zero, it is strong.
b. Yes, No, because the correlation is close to zero, it is strong.
c. No, because the correlation is close to zero, it is weak.
d. No, because the correlation is negative, it is weak.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this set, the correlation coefficient is = -0.015.

It shows that financial variables have trust issues. Once a price rises, the other one is decreasing the value of -0,015 shows, that there are several fewer associations in the set of data among x and y and between y values. This interaction also can range between -1 to 1, to 0 being completely unrelated. But you'd never be sure, in this situation, 0.015 is very similar to 0.

It means that your prediction is nothing better than just a wild choice. Its odds of an estimated value being relatively close to the actual result are therefore much smaller as the points are it's hardly the best match.

The governor of state A earns ​$48,980 more than the governor of state B. If the total of their salaries is ​$289,660​, find the salaries of each

Answers

Answer:

Governor of State B: $120,340; Governor of State A: $169,320

Step-by-step explanation:

For the sake of this problem, let's set the salary of State B's governor as x. That would make the salary of State A's governor equal to x+48980. The following lists out how to solve this problem.

Governor B salary + Governor A salary = $48980

x+x+48980=289660

2x+48980=289660

2x=240680

x=120340

120340+48980=169320

Let x = salary for governor of state A
Let y = salary for governor of state B

Then x = y + 48980, since gov. of state A earns this much more than governor of state B.

Therefore we have x + y = 289660. Substitute for x.

(y + 48980) + y = 289660
2y + 48980 = 289660
2y = 240680
y = $120340, which is salary for governor B.

Now we substitute y into x = y + 48980
x = 120340 + 48980
x = $169320, which is salary for governor A.

Answer:

1). Option (b)

2). Option (d)

3). Option (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question (1)

For Pythagoras triplet,

(Largest number)² = (Number 1)² + (Number 2)²

a). 5² = 5² + 2²

   25 = 25 + 4

   25 = 29

  Not True.

b). 5² = 3² + 4²

   25 = 9 + 16

   25 = 25

   True.

c). 10² = 1² + 5²

   100 = 1 + 25

   100 = 26

   Not true.

d). 2² = 2²+ 2²

   4 = 4 + 4

   4 = 8

   Not true.

Therefore, Option (b) is correct.

Question (2)

1 - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{5}-\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

      = [tex]\frac{5-1}{5}[/tex]

      = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, Option (d) is the answer.

Question (3)

a). 6 + 3 > 2 ⇒ 9 > 2 [True]

    6 + 2 > 3 ⇒ 8 > 3 [True]

    2 + 3 > 6 ⇒ 5 > 6 [False]

    Triangle is not possible.

b). 2 + 8 > 3 → 10 > 3 [True]

    8 + 3 > 2 → 11 > 2 [True]

    2 + 3 > 8 → 5 > 8 [False]

   Triangle is not possible.

c). 5.5 + 2.5 > 2.5 → 8 > 2.5 [True]

   5.5 + 2.5 > 2.5 → 8 > 2.5 [True]

   2.5 + 2.5 > 5.5 → 5 > 5.5 [False]

   Triangle is not possible.

d). 3 + 6 > 7 → 9 > 7 [True]

    3 + 7 > 6 → 10 > 6 [True]

    7 + 6 > 3 → 13 > 3 [True]

The life span of a domestic cat is normally distributed with a mean of 15.7 years and a standard deviation of 1.6 years. a. Find the probability that a cat will live to be older than 14 years. b. Find the probability that a cat will live between 14 and 18 years. c. If a cat lives to be over 18 years, would that be unusual? Why or why not? d. How old would a cat have to be to be older than 90% of other cats?

Answers

Answer

a. 0.856

b. 0.78071

c. It is not unusual

d. 13.65 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

The life span of a domestic cat is normally distributed with a mean of 15.7 years and a standard deviation of 1.6 years.

We solve this question using z score formula:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

a. Find the probability that a cat will live to be older than 14 years.

For x > 14 years

z = 14 - 15.7/1.6

z = -1.0625

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<14) = 0.144

P(x>14) = 1 - P(x<14) = 0.856

b. Find the probability that a cat will live between 14 and 18 years.

For x = 14 years

z = 14 - 15.7/1.6

z = -1.0625

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 14) = 0.144

For x = 18 years

z = 18 - 15.7/1.6

z= 1.4375

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 18) = 0.92471

The probability that a cat will live between 14 and 18 years is calculated as:

P(x = 18) - P(x = 14)

0.92471 - 0.144

= 0.78071

c. If a cat lives to be over 18 years, would that be unusual? Why or why not?

For x > 18 years

z = 18 - 15.7/1.6

z= 1.4375

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<18) = 0.92471

P(x>18) = 1 - P(x<18) = 0.075288

Converting this to percentage:

0.075288 × 100 = 7.5288%

Hence, 7.5288% of the cats live to be over 18 years. Hence, it is not unusual.

d. How old would a cat have to be to be older than 90% of other cats?

From the question above, 10% of the cats would be older than 90% of other cats.

Hence, we find the z score of the 10th percentile

= -1.282

Hence,

-1.282 = x - 15.7/1.6

Cross Multiply

-1.282 × 1.6 = x - 15.7

- 2.0512 = x - 15.7

x = 15.7 -2.0512

x = 13.6488 years old

Approximately = 13.65 years old

A wire 4 1/2 feet long is being cut into smaller pieces of wire, each 11/4 feet long. What is the maximum number of the smaller pieces of wire that can be cut from the original piece of wire?

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 4 1/2 and turn it into just halves by multiplying 4•2 and then adding it to one. 9/2 then multiply that by 2 because you need the denominator to be 4 getting 18/4. Then subtract 11/4 you end up getting 9/4. So technically you have 2 pieces but if you want them both to be 11/4 you only have one

Answers

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of the rectangle is equal to 2x + 16.

the perimeter of the triangle is equal to 3x + 10.

since they are equal now you can solve by saying 2x + 16 = 3x + 10

Finding angles of the triangle:

<WYX = <XYZ - <WYZ = 180 - 4x

<XWY = <XWV - <VWY = 180 - 6x

Using the sum of angles in a triangle and substituting these values in:

180 = <X + <WYX + <XWY = 90 + (180 - 4x) + (180-6x) = 450 - 10x

270 = 10x

27 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle CAB = 33 degrees (Z-figure)

Angle ACE = 180 degrees (line), therefore angle ACB = 180 - 5x.

Sum of all angles in the triangle should equate to 180 degrees.

Now the sum is of all angles in triangle ABC is:

CAB + ABC + ACB = 33 + (180 - 5x) + 2x = 213 - 3x

So 213 - 3x should equal 180.

213 - 3x = 180 <=> -3x = -33 <=> x = 11

A national consumer agency selected independent random samples of 45 owners of newer cars (less than five years old) and 40 owners of older cars (more than five years old) to estimate the difference in mean dollar cost of yearly routine maintenance, such as oil changes, tire rotations, filters, and wiper blades. The agency found the mean dollar cost per year for newer cars was $195 with a standard deviation of $46. For older cars, the mean was $286 with a standard deviation of $58. Which of the following represents the 95 percent confidence interval to estimate the difference (newer minus older) in the mean dollar cost of routine maintenance between newer and older cars?

E. (195-286) +1.992 462 + 58 45 40

Answers

Answer:

(195 - 286) ± 1.992 * sqrt((46^2/45) + (58^2/40))

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

NEWER CARS:

Sample size = n1 = 45

Standard deviation s1 = 46

Mean = m1 = 195

OLDER CARS:

Sample size = n2 = 40

Standard DEVIATION s2 = 58

Mean = m2 = 286

Confidence interval at 95% ; α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 ; 0.05 / 2 = 0.025

Confidence interval is calculated thus : (newer--older)

(m1 - m2) ± Tcritical * standard error

Mean difference = m1 - m2; (195 - 286)

Tcritical = Tn1+n2-2, α/2 = T(45+40)-2 = T83, 0.025 = 1.99 (T value calculator)

Standard error (E) = sqrt((s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2))

E = sqrt((46^2/45) + (58^2/40))

Hence, confidence interval:

(195 - 286) ± 1.992 * sqrt((46^2/45) + (58^2/40))

The 95% confidence interval for estimating the difference in the mean dollar cost of the routine maintenance between newer and older cars is given by:

[tex]CI=(\overline{x_1} - \overline{x_2}) \pm t_{critical} \sqrt{\dfrac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \dfrac{s_2^2}{n_2}}[/tex]

Given that:

The first sample consists of owners of newer cars

First sample's size = [tex]n_1 =45[/tex]First sample's mean = [tex]\overline{x_1}=\$195[/tex]First sample's standard deviation = [tex]s_1 = \$46[/tex]

The second sample consists of owner of older cars.

Second sample's size = [tex]n_2 = 40[/tex]Second sample's mean = [tex]\overline{x_2}=\$286[/tex]Second sample's standard deviation = [tex]s_2 = \$58[/tex]To find:

95% confidence interval for difference between both samples' means.

Calculations and Explanations:

Since the sample sizes are > 30, thus we can use the z table for finding the Confidence interval.

The CI is given as:

[tex]CI=(\overline{x_1} - \overline{x_2}) \pm t_{critical} \sqrt{\dfrac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \dfrac{s_2^2}{n_2}}[/tex]

For 0.95 probability confidence, we have t at 40+45-3= t at 83 at 0.05/2 is 1.992 (from T tables)

Thus,

[tex]CI=(195-268) \pm 1.992 \sqrt{\dfrac{46^2}{45} + \dfrac{58^2}{40}}[/tex]
