The error is in step 4. The sign was not changed after dividing both sides by -10. Thus, the answer to the inequality should be: -27/10 ≥ x.

<h3>How Negative Number Changes Inequality Sign?</h3>

When we divide or multiply two sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign is changed to the opposite, i.e. from < to > or from > to <.

In step 4, the sign was not changed after dividing both sides by -10.

The answer should be, -27/10 ≥ x.

Some types of algae have the potential to cause damage to river ecosystems. Suppose the accompanying data on algae colony densit

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 50, 55, 50, 79, 44, 37, 70, 45, 49

y: 152, 48, 22, 35, 43, 171, 13, 185, 25

a) Compute the equation of the least-squares regression line. (Round your numerical values to five decimal places.)For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

So we can find the sums like this:

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =50+ 55+ 50+ 79+ 44+ 37+ 70+ 45+ 49=479$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =152+ 48+ 22+ 35+ 43+ 171+ 13+ 185+ 25=694$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =50^2 + 55^2 + 50^2 + 79^2 + 44^2 + 37^2 + 70^2 + 45^2 + 49^2=26897$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =152^2 + 48^2 + 22^2 + 35^2 + 43^2 + 171^2 + 13^2 + 185^2 + 25^2=93226$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =50*152+ 55*48+ 50*22+ 79*35+ 44*43+ 37*171+ 70*13+ 45*185+ 49*25=32784$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=26897-\frac{479^2}{9}=1403.556$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=32784-\frac{479*694}{9}=-4152.22$

And the slope would be:

$m=-\frac{-4152.222}{1403.556}=-2.95836$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{479}{9}=53.222$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{694}{9}=77.111$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=77.1111111-(-2.95836*53.22222222)=234.56159$

So the line would be given by:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

Use the figure to determine the intersection of planes EAB and EFG

vredina [299]

Answer:

Option (3). EF

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Plane defined by EAB can be represented by the face EABF of the square prism also.

Similarly, plane EFG can be represented by the face EFGH of the prism.

Now these sides EABF and EFGH are joining each other at the edge EF of the cuboid.

Therefore, intersection of the given planes is EF.

Option (3) will be the answer.

PLease help, I need this in 2 minutes!<br><br> y÷2.3+5.69=7.58

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

y=4.347

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for y in the equation:

$\dfrac{y}{2.3}+5.69 =7.58$

First, subtract 5.69 from both sides

$\dfrac{y}{2.3}+5.69-5.69 =7.58-5.69\\\dfrac{y}{2.3}=1.89\\$Cross Multiply\\y=1.89 X 2.3\\y=4.347$
