Answer:

x=12 (12 nickels))

y=5 (5 dimes)

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the problem, you can set up the following system of linear equations, where:

x: number of nickels.

y: number of dimes.

Then

FIRST EQUATION: x+y=17

SECOND EQUATION: 5x+10y=110  (in cents)

You can apply the Substitution method:

- Solve for x from the first equation.

- Substitute into the second equation and solve for y.

 Then:

x=17-y

5(17-y)+10y=110\\85-5y+10y=110\\5y=25\\y=5

- Find x:

x=17-5\\x=12

If we reject the null hypothesis, h0: ρ = 0 , what can we conclude about the population correlation coefficient?
ehidna [41]
If the null hypothesis, H_0:\:\rho =0 is rejected, then we can conclude that the correlation coefficient is significant. This means that there is enough evidence to conclude that a relationship exists between the two (or more) variables involved in the regression.

The graphs below have the same shape. What is the equation of the blue graph?
Radda [10]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)

• If a > 0 then a shift to the left of a units

• If a < 0 then a shift to the right of a units

Given f(x) then f(x) + c is a vertical translation of f(x)

• If c > 0 then a shift up of c units

• If c < 0 then a shift down of c units

g(x) is f(x) shifted 3 units right and 1 unit up , then

g(x) = (x - 3)² + 1 → B
