The house will be 10.9 inches high on the blueprint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Scale on blue print;

6 inch = 11 feet

We will find unit rate in terms of foot.

1 foot = $\frac{6}{11}\ inches$

Therefore;

20 feet = $\frac{6}{11}*20 = \frac{120}{11}$

20 feet = 10.9 inches

The house will be 10.9 inches high on the blueprint.

Answer:

m < A = 60º

m < B = 30º

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sides on this triangle are: 6, $6\sqrt{3}$ , and 12

Any triangle with the angles of 30º - 60º - 90º always has side lengths in this proportion:

x, $x\sqrt{3}$ , 2x

We can line this up with the given sides. If x is 6, then 2x would be 12.

x : $x\sqrt{3}$ : 2x = 6 : $6\sqrt{3}$ : 12

Angle B is across from 6, the shortest side. That also means that it corresponds to x, or the smallest angle in the proportion, 30º.

m < B = 30º

Solving for < A:

Method 1) Sum of Angles in a Triangle

Since we already know that one angle is right and therefore 90º and m < B is 30º, we can subtract these from the total sum of angle measures in a triangle to get the last angle, < A.

180º - 90º - 30º = 60º

m < A = 60º

Method 2) Using the second part of the proportion

Since m < A is across from the second largest side, we know that it is equal to $x\sqrt{3}$ ( $6\sqrt{3}$ in this question) or 60º in the angle proportion.

This means that m < A = 60º

Answer:

a) $y=-0.317 x +46.02$

b) Figure attached

c) $S^2=\hat \sigma^2=MSE=\frac{190.33}{10}=19.03$

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 30, 30, 30, 50, 50, 50, 70,70, 70,90,90,90

y: 38, 43, 29, 32, 26, 33, 19, 27, 23, 14, 19, 21.

a) Find the least-squares line appropriate for this data.

For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

So we can find the sums like this:

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = 30+30+30+50+50+50+70+70+70+90+90+90=720$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =38+43+29+32+26+33+19+27+23+14+19+21=324$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =30^2+30^2+30^2+50^2+50^2+50^2+70^2+70^2+70^2+90^2+90^2+90^2=49200$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =38^2+43^2+29^2+32^2+26^2+33^2+19^2+27^2+23^2+14^2+19^2+21^2=9540$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =30*38+30*43+30*29+50*32+50*26+50*33+70*19+70*27+70*23+90*14+90*19+90*21=17540$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=49200-\frac{720^2}{12}=6000$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=17540-\frac{720*324}{12}{12}=-1900$

And the slope would be:

$m=-\frac{1900}{6000}=-0.317$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{720}{12}=60$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{324}{12}=27$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=27-(-0.317*60)=46.02$

So the line would be given by:

$y=-0.317 x +46.02$

b) Plot the points and graph the line as a check on your calculations.

For this case we can use excel and we got the figure attached as the result.

c) Calculate S^2

In oder to calculate S^2 we need to calculate the MSE, or the mean square error. And is given by this formula:

$MSE=\frac{SSE}{df_{E}}$

The degred of freedom for the error are given by:

$df_{E}=n-2=12-2=10$

We can calculate:

$S_{y}=\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)^2}{n}=9540-\frac{324^2}{12}=792$

And now we can calculate the sum of squares for the regression given by:

$SSR=\frac{S^2_{xy}}{S_{xx}}=\frac{(-1900)^2}{6000}=601.67$

We have that SST= SSR+SSE, and then SSE=SST-SSR= 792-601.67=190.33[/tex]

So then :

$S^2=\hat \sigma^2=MSE=\frac{190.33}{10}=19.03$

The equation of line AB is y = 5x + 1. Write an equation of a line parallel to line AB in slope-intercept form that contains poi

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The equation of the line y= 5x+1. Line that is parallel to the function given should have the same slope as the equation which is 5. We use the point-slope form in order to find the second equation that contains the point (4,5).

y - 5 = 5(x-4)

y = 5x - 20 +5

y≈ 5x -15

The distance between Lincoln, NE, and Boulder, CO, is about 500 miles. The distance between Boulder, CO, and a third city is 200

GenaCL600 [577]

We know that

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side (Triangle Inequality Theorem)

Let

A------> Lincoln, NE

B------> Boulder, CO

C------> third city

we know that

in the triangle ABC

AB=500 miles

BC=200 miles

AC=x

Applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 500+200 > x------> 700 > x------> x < 700 miles

2) 200+x > 500----> x > 500-200------> x > 300 miles

the solution for x is

300 < x < 700

the interval is------> (300,700)

the possible distances, d, in miles, between Lincoln, NE, and the third city, are in the range between 300 and 700 miles
