In an area of the Midwest, records were kept on the relationship between the rainfall (in inches) and the yield of wheat (bushel

s per acre). Which is the best predicted value for y given x = 7.1? Assume that the variables x and y have a significant correlation.
Rainfall (in inches)(x): 10.5,8.8,13.4,12.5,18.8,10.3,7.0,15.6,16.0

Yield (bushels per acre) (y): 50.5,46.2,58.8,59.0,82.4,49.2,31.9,76.0,78.8

A. 35.4, B. 35.2, C. 35.7, D. 35.9

Answer:

Option A is correct.

y = 35.4 bushels per acre when rainfall = 7.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An image of the steps to obtain the equation that relates x to y is attached to this answer.

n = number of variables = 9

μₓ = mean of variable x (rainfall in inches)

μᵧ = mean of variable y (yield in bushels per acre)

σₓ = standard deviation of variable x (rainfall in inches)

σᵧ = standard deviation of variable y (yield in bushels per acre)

y = 4.379x + 4.268

when x = 7.1

y = 4.379(7.1) + 4.268 = 35.3589 = 35.4 bushels per acre.

Bo and Erica are yoga instructors. Between the two of them, they teach 45 yoga classes each week. If Erica teaches 15 fewer than
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

20 and 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

They both teach total 45 yoga classes each week.

Erica teaches 15 fewer than twice as many as Bo.

To find:

How many classes does each instructor teach per week  = ?

Solution:

Let number of classes are taken by Bo = x

Then number of classes are taken by Erica = 2x - 15  (given)

Total number of classes are taken by both = 45           (given)

According to the question.

x + 2x - 15 = 45

3x - 15 = 45

By adding both side by 15

3x = 60\\

By dividing both side by 3

x = 20

number of classes are taken by Bo = x = 20

number of classes are taken by Erica = 2x - 15

                                                               = 2\times20 - 15 = 40- 15 = 25\\

Therefore, number of classes are taken by Bo and  Erica is 20 and 25.
