You need to draw a best-fit line
Zanzabum3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct option is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a straight line passes through some of the points, none of the points, or all of the points of a scatter plot and best represents the data, then it is called a best fit line.

Best fit line minimizes the squared distance of each point. Some points of the scatter plot lie above and below the best fit line.

When determining slope, data points do not usually fall within a straight line, so you need to draw a best fit line, with as many points above and below the line as possible.

Therefore the correct option is 3.

A car dealership sells 0, 1, or 2 luxury cars on any day. When selling a car, the dealer also tries to persuade the customer to
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Mean = 1.42

Variance = 0.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: X denote the number of luxury cars sold in a given day, and Y denote the number of extended warranties sold.

Also, joint probability function of X and Y are given.

To find:

mean and variance of X

Solution:

From the given joint probability function of X and Y,

P(X=0)=\frac{1}{6}\\P(X=1)=\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1+2}{12}=\frac{3}{12}\\P(X=2)=\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1+4+2}{12}=\frac{7}{12}

Mean of X:

E(X)=\sum XP(X)\\=0\left ( \frac{1}{6} \right )+1\left ( \frac{3}{12} \right )+2\left ( \frac{7}{12} \right )\\=0+\frac{3}{12}+\frac{14}{12}\\=\frac{17}{12}=1.42

Variance of X:

E(X^2)=\sum X^2P(X)\\=0^2\left ( \frac{1}{6} \right )+1^2\left ( \frac{3}{12} \right )+2^2\left ( \frac{7}{12} \right )\\=0+\frac{3}{12}+\frac{28}{12}\\=\frac{31}{12}

var(X)=E\left [ X^2 \right ]-\left ( E\left [ X \right ] \right )^2\\=\frac{31}{12}-\left ( \frac{17}{12} \right )^2\\=\frac{31}{12}-\frac{289}{144}\\=\frac{372-289}{144}\\=\frac{83}{144}\\=0.58
