The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (4, -4) and (k, -1) and the slope m = 34.

Substitute:

\dfrac{-1-(-4)}{k-4}=34\\\\\dfrac{3}{k-4}=\dfrac{34}{1}\qquad|\text{cross multiply}\\\\34(k-4)=3\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\34k-136=3\qquad|+136\\\\34k=139\qquad|:34\\\\k=\dfrac{139}{34}

-- If the spinner is honest and the sections are all the same size, then
each section should have an equal chance of being landed on.

-- If there are 4 sections, then the chance of landing on each one
should be  1/4  or  25%.

-- The chance doesn't depend on how many times you try it.
If there are 4 sections, then each one should come up
25% of the time.

Sierra applies a coat of epoxy paint to the four sides and floor of a rectangular swimming pool. The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 fee
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

4 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the formula for surface area of rectangular prism.

A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Where:

w = Width

h = Height

l = Length

The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 feet long, and 12 feet wide.

Hence,

=2 × (12 × 18 + 4 × 18 + 4 ×12)

=672 square feet

One gallon of paint covers 155 square feet.

Hence,

155 square feet = 1 gallon of paint

672 square feet = x

Cross Multiply

155 square feet × x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint

x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint/ 155 square feet

x = 4.335483871 gallons of paint

Therefore, based on the calculation above, approximately to the nearest whole number, Sierra uses 4 gallons of paint

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immedia
Hatshy [7]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immediately after giving the most recent test, he surveyed each of the 24 students in his class and asked them how many hours of TV they watched that week. He then matched each student's test grade with his or her survey response. After compiling the data, he used hours of TV watched to predict each student's test score. He found the least-squares regression line to be y"  = -1.5x + 85.

He also calculated that the value of r, the correlation, was -0.61.

what is the correct value of the coefficient of determination R² and give a correct interpretation of its meaning

Answer:

Interpretation of coefficient of determination R² = 0.3721

R² = 0.3721, meaning 37.21% of the total variation in test scores can be explained by the least square regression line

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given the data in the question;

the least square regression line is;

y"  = -1.5x + 85

the correlation coefficient r = -0.61

Now, the coefficient of determination R² is square of correlation coefficient r

R² = -61²

R² = 0.3721
