Answer:
a. 8.95
b. it is
c. yes it belongs
d. males are 2.574 taller than females on average.
Step-by-step explanation:
GIven the regression outpuit that we have in this question, the value of the t test statistics for the shoe size can be solved as
a. test statistic = 1.164/0.13
t test = 8.95
b. the regression coefficient of shoe size is 1.164, this is statistically significant
c. Yes the variable shoe size does belong to the model.
d. The regression coefficient of gender shows that on the average, while holding other variables constant, males are 2.574 inches taller than the their female counterparts.
If you're factoring, your answer is
(4x - 3)(4x + 5)
You'll work it out this way:
16x^2 + 8x - 15
Since there's no GCF here, you multiply the first and third terms, giving you -240. Your next step is to find two numbers that have a sum of 8 and a product of -240. These numbers are 20 and -12. Plug those in and you've got:
16x^2 + 20x - 12x - 15
From here you divide it into two binomials. These are (16x^2 + 20x) and (-12x - 15).
When you take out the greatest common factors (4x and -3), they become:
4x(4x + 5) - 3(4x + 5)
Then you group what's outside of the parentheses together (4x - 3)
And bring what's inside of the parentheses down (4x + 5).
This brings your answer to
(4x - 3)(4x + 5)
