You decided to join a fantasy Baseball league and you think the best way to pick your players is to look at their Batting Averag

es. You want to use data from the previous season to help predict Batting Averages to know which players to pick for the upcoming season. You want to use Runs Score, Doubles, Triples, Home Runs and Strike Outs to determine if there is a significant linear relationship for Batting Averages.You collect data to, to help estimate Batting Average, to see which players you should choose.

Answer:

The estimated value of the Batting Average is 0.229.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case regression analysis is to performed to determine if there is a significant linear relationship for Batting Averages with Runs Score, Doubles, Triples, Home Runs and Strike Outs.

The independent and dependent variables are as follows:

<em>y</em> = Batting Averages

<em>x</em>₁ = Runs Score/Times at Bat

<em>x</em>₂ = Doubles/Times at Bat

<em>x</em>₃ = Triples/Times at Bat

<em>x</em>₄ = Home Runs/Times at Bat

<em>x</em>₅= Strike Outs/Times at Bat

The regression analysis can be performed in Excel.

Consider the regression output attached.

The regression equation is as follows:

y=0.183+0.447x_{1}+0.991x_{2}+0.622x_{3}+0.274x_{4}-0.285x_{5}

Now estimate the Batting Average when Run Score (<em>x</em>₁) = 0.123, Doubles ( <em>x</em>₂) = 0.040, Triples (<em>x</em>₃) = 0.0045 ,  Home Runs ( <em>x</em>₄) = 0.009 and Strike Outs (<em>x</em>₅) = 0.189 as follows:

y=0.183+0.447x_{1}+0.991x_{2}+0.622x_{3}+0.274x_{4}-0.285x_{5}

   =0.183+(0.447\cdot 0.123)+(0.991\cdot 0.040)+(0.622\cdot 0.0045)\\+(0.274\cdot 0.009)-(0.285\cdot 0.189)\\\\=0.229021\\\\\approx 0.229

Thus, the estimated value of the Batting Average is 0.229.

The lifetime X (in hundreds of hours) of a certain type of vacuum tube has a Weibull distribution with parameters α = 2 and β =
stich3 [128]

I'm assuming \alpha is the shape parameter and \beta is the scale parameter. Then the PDF is

f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac29xe^{-x^2/9}&\text{for }x\ge0\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

a. The expectation is

E[X]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty xf_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^\infty x^2e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

To compute this integral, recall the definition of the Gamma function,

\Gamma(x)=\displaystyle\int_0^\infty t^{x-1}e^{-t}\,\mathrm dt

For this particular integral, first integrate by parts, taking

u=x\implies\mathrm du=\mathrm dx

\mathrm dv=xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx\implies v=-\dfrac92e^{-x^2/9}

E[X]=\displaystyle-xe^{-x^2/9}\bigg|_0^\infty+\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm x

E[X]=\displaystyle\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

Substitute x=3y^{1/2}, so that \mathrm dx=\dfrac32y^{-1/2}\,\mathrm dy:

E[X]=\displaystyle\frac32\int_0^\infty y^{-1/2}e^{-y}\,\mathrm dy

\boxed{E[X]=\dfrac32\Gamma\left(\dfrac12\right)=\dfrac{3\sqrt\pi}2\approx2.659}

The variance is

\mathrm{Var}[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2-2XE[X]+E[X]^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2

The second moment is

E[X^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^2f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^\infty x^3e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

Integrate by parts, taking

u=x^2\implies\mathrm du=2x\,\mathrm dx

\mathrm dv=xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx\implies v=-\dfrac92e^{-x^2/9}

E[X^2]=\displaystyle-x^2e^{-x^2/9}\bigg|_0^\infty+2\int_0^\infty xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

E[X^2]=\displaystyle2\int_0^\infty xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

Substitute x=3y^{1/2} again to get

E[X^2]=\displaystyle9\int_0^\infty e^{-y}\,\mathrm dy=9

Then the variance is

\mathrm{Var}[X]=9-E[X]^2

\boxed{\mathrm{Var}[X]=9-\dfrac94\pi\approx1.931}

b. The probability that X\le3 is

P(X\le 3)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^3f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^3xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx

which can be handled with the same substitution used in part (a). We get

\boxed{P(X\le 3)=\dfrac{e-1}e\approx0.632}

c. Same procedure as in (b). We have

P(1\le X\le3)=P(X\le3)-P(X\le1)

and

P(X\le1)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^1f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^1xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx=\frac{e^{1/9}-1}{e^{1/9}}

Then

\boxed{P(1\le X\le3)=\dfrac{e^{8/9}-1}e\approx0.527}

If 9:x = x:4, then x is 6. <br><br> true or false
Sophie [7]
We subsituete

9:6=6:4
treat as fraction
9/6=6/4

9/6=3/3 times 3/2
6/4=2/2 times 3/2

3/2=3/2
this is TRUE

Solve for X when m&lt;2 = 8x <br><br> (I don’t really understand how to solve this. Please help??)
lozanna [386]

Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First u swap the sides of the equation

8x = 2

then you divide both sides by 8 which gets you 1/4 or 0.025
