Answer:

Number of overweight citizens were 16.74 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a study it was concluded that out of 100 citizens 60 citizens were overweight.

If population was 279 million then we have to calculate overweight citizens.

We will apply unitary method in this question.

∵ Out of 100 citizens overweight citizens are = 60

∴ out of 1 citizens overweight were = \frac{60}{100}

∴ out of 279 millions overweight citizens were = [tex]\frac{60}{100}(279) = .06×279 = 16.74 million.

Use prime factor decomposition to find the Hcf of 99 and 165
const2013 [10]

Answer:

HCF = 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

99 = 3*3*11

165 = 3*5*11

3 and 11 are common so the HCF = 3*11

= 33.

Assume you have noted the following prices for books and the number of pages that each book contains. Book Pages (x) Price (y) A
belka [17]

Answer:

a) y=0.00991 x +1.042  

b) r^2 = 0.7503^2 = 0.563

c) r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

x: 500, 700, 750, 590 , 540, 650, 480

y: 7.00, 7.50 , 9.00, 6.5, 7.50 , 7.0, 4.50

Part a

We want to create a linear model like this :

y = mx +b

Wehre

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}  

And:  

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}  

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}=2595100-\frac{4210^2}{7}=63085.714  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=30095-\frac{4210*49}{7}=625  

And the slope would be:  

m=\frac{625}{63085.714}=0.00991  

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

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{4210}{7}=601.429  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{49}{7}=7  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x=7-(0.00991*601.429)=1.042  

And the line would be:

y=0.00991 x +1.042  

Part b

The correlation coefficient is given by:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=7 \sum x = 4210, \sum y = 49, \sum xy = 30095, \sum x^2 =2595100, \sum y^2 =354  

r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503  

The determination coefficient is given by:

r^2 = 0.7503^2 = 0.563

Part c

r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503
