How many years will it take for a person in the United States eat 1,120 pounds of turkey (14 pounds)

1 answer:

3 0

If I understand you, a person eats about 14 pounds of turkey a year. So we will divide all that turkey (1120 pounds) by 14 to find out how many years.

1,120 ÷ 14 = 80 So it will take 80 years. (Since babies can't eat that much turkey a year it will actually take more than 80 years - or the person can eat more than 14 pounds in some years to make up for their early years when they ate less) I know it's a math question, but I also like to be realistic about it. Who measures the amount of turkey they eat yearly anyway? :-)

Use the following cell phone airport data speeds (Mbps) from a particular network. Find the percentile corresponding to the dat

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Thus percentile lies between 53.3% and 55.6 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First we arrange the data in ascending order . Then find the number of the values corresponding to the given value. Then equate it with the number of observations and x and then multiply it to get the percentile. n= P/100 *N

where n is the ordinal rank of the given value

N is the number of values in ascending order.

The data in ascending order is

0.1 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.3 0.6 0.6 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.8 0.8 0.9 1.3

1.5 1.7 1.9 2.2 2.3 2.3 2.6 2.8 3.3 3.5 5.5 6.1 6.4 6.9 7.5 7.9 8.3 9.8 10.1 11.8 11.9 12.1 12.3 12.7 12.9 13.8 13.8 14.6 14.7 14.8 27.5

Number of observation = 45

4.9 lies between 3.3 and 5.5

x*n = 24 observation x*n = 25 observation

x*45= 24 x*45= 25

x= 0.533 x= 0.556

Thus percentile lies between 53.3% and 55.6 %

5x+3y=3 slope intercept form: slope of the line: y-intercept of the line:

siniylev [52]

Answer:y=-5/3x+1

-5/3

Step-by-step explanation:you move the 5x to the right making the equation 3y=-5x + 3, then you divide everything by 3. You then find the other info by knowing y=mx+b which means m=slope and b = y intercept

Professor wonders whether a student's homework average (X) could be used to predict their final grade in the course (Y) . She ca

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The dependent variable is the final grade in the course and is the vriable of interest on this case.

H0: $\beta_1 = 0$

H1: $\beta_1 \neq 0$

And if we reject the null hypothesis we can conclude that we have a significant relationship between the two variables analyzed.

Step-by-step explanation:

On this case w ehave the following linear model:

$Y= 21.839 +0.724 X$

Where Y represent the final grade in the course and X the student's homework average. For this linear model the slope is given by $\beta_1 = 0.724$ and the intercept is $\beta_0 = 21.839$

Which is the dependent variable, and why?

The dependent variable is the final grade in the course and is the vriable of interest on this case.

Based on the material taught in this course, which of the following is the most appropriate alternative hypothesis to use for resolving this question?

Since we conduct a regression the hypothesis of interest are:

H0: $\beta_1 = 0$

H1: $\beta_1 \neq 0$

And if we reject the null hypothesis we can conclude that we have a significant relationship between the two variables analyzed.
