Answer:

The range of the acceptable lengths of the rod is [29.485  30.515]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The ideal length of the metal rod = 30.5 cm,

Also, it can be vary by 0.015 cm,

So, the maximum length that is acceptable = 30.5 + 0.015 = 30.515 cm,

Also, the minimum length that is acceptable = 30.5 - 0.015 = 29.485 cm,

⇒ 29.485 cm ≤ Acceptable length ≤ 30.515 cm

Hence, the range of acceptable lengths would be,

[29.485  30.515]

The acceptable length of the rod that has the standard length of 30.5 cm and can only from the ideal length by at most 0.015 cm is from 30.485 cm to 30.515 cm. This is computed by deducting and adding 0.015 cm to the standard length.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-4,1) and (4-1)
Nitella [24]

Answer:

y=-1/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1: The basic slope-intercept equation is <em>y=ax+b</em>. To achieve the slope with two points, this is the equation:

m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

All you have to do is insert points (-4, 1) and (4, -1) into their corresponding locations.

m = \frac{(-1)-1}{4-(-4)}

With this equation, you will be able to find the slope. Then you can simply graph it to connect the two dots.

METHOD 2: Simply connect the two dots with a straight line (use a ruler or something with a straight edge.) Then count how many spaces up/down and left/right. If the line goes from top to bottom from left to right, it is a negative slope (hence, the -1/4.)

A least squares regression line was calculated to relate the length​ (cm) of newborn boys to their weight in kg. The relationshi
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

58.6% of the variation in length (in cm) of new born boys and their weight (in kg) is explained by the line of best fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

R² value = 58.6% comparing the length (cm) of new born boys to their weight (kg)

The R² value is called the Coefficient of determination. It is obtained by taking the square of the correlation Coefficient (R). The value gives the proportion of Variation between the independent and dependent variables which is explained by regression line. In the scenario above, the R² value means that 58.6% of the variation in length in centimeter of new born boys and their weight (in kg) is explained by the line of best fit. While (100% - 58.6% = 41.4%) is due to other factors.

Find the area of the regular polygon below and round your answer to the nearest tenth.
stira [4]
The 9-sided polygon will have a central angle between the vertex and the center of one side of 360°/(2*9) = 20°. Then the apothem is
  a = (6 in/2)*cot(20°) ≈ 8.242432 in
The perimeter is 9*6 in = 54 in, so the area is
  A = (1/2)Pa = (1/2)*(54 in)*(8.242432 in) ≈ 222.5 in²
