Answer:
mean - 12.5
SD - 12.0
Step-by-step explanation:
(5*7) - (5*4) = 35 - 20 = 15
you "distribute" the 5 but multiplying it to both numbers in the parentheses, and doing the subtraction.
The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.
Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories) means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.
Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
Answer:
1.9 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Empty container: 3/10 kg = 0.3 kg
Container half filled: 1 1/10 kg = 1.1 kg
Mass of water that fills it halfway: 1.1 kg - 0.3 kg = 0.8 kg
Mass of water that fills it completely: 2 * 0.8 kg = 1.6 kg
Mass of container completely filled with water: 0.3 kg + 1.6 kg = 1.9 kg
Answer:
11. x = -3+√37 ≈ 3.08276
12. x = 11.2
13. x = -6 +6√5 ≈ 7.41641
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, the relation of interest is ...
(distance to circle near) × (distance to circle far) = (distance to circle near) × (distance to circle far)
When there is only one point of intersection of the secant with the circle—because it is a tangent—then the product is the square of the length of the tangent.
11. 2(2+12) = x(x +6)
x² +6x -28 = 0
(x +3)² -37 = 0
x = -3+√37 ≈ 3.08276
12. 5(5+x) = 9(9)
5x +25 = 81
x = 56/5 = 11.2
13. x(x +12) = 12(12)
x² +12x -144 = 0
(x +6)² -180 = 0
x = -6 +√180 ≈ 7.41641

<em>Comment on this secant rule</em>
This rule turns out to apply whether the point of intersection of the secant lines is outside the circle (as in these problems) or inside the circle (as in problem 9). The product of the two distances from the point of intersection to the circle is a constant for a given pair of intersecting secants/chords.
