So, on Monday he ate 1/7, that means from a whole 7/7, take away 1/7, the leftover was 6/7 then.

on Tuesday, he ate 1/6 of the leftover, namely, 1/6 of 6/7.

now, how much is 1/6 of 6/7?  well, is just their product,   \bf \cfrac{1}{6}\cdot \cfrac{6}{7}\implies \cfrac{1}{7}

now, so he really ate 1/7 of the whole thing on Tuesday, there were 6/7 remaining, how much is 6/7 - 1/7?  yeap, you guessed it, 5/7.

A manufacturer has been selling hats at $8 a piece, and at this price, consumers have been buying 6000 hats per month. The manuf
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$10

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial selling price per hat= $8

Number of hat sold= 6000

Revenue generated = $8*6000=$48000

Cost of producing hats = $4 per hat

Production cost = $4*6000=$24000

Profit = $48000-$24000=$24000

Increasing the price per hat by $2

Selling price per hat = $2+$8=$10

Number of hats sold are 500 fewer = 6000-500= 5500 hats

Revenue generated = $10*5500 = $55000

Cost of production is the same , where $4 per hat = $4*5500 =$22000

Profit generated = $55000-$22000 =$33000

This means at a price of $10 per hat , selling 500 fewer hats, the manufacture still makes a profit of $33000 which is $9000 more. It will be reasonable to hat at $10 because the profit will increase.

A coach is assessing the correlation between the number of hours spent practicing and the average number of points scored in a g
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

a) r=\frac{9(396)-(18)(153)}{\sqrt{[9(51) -(18)^2][9(3141) -(153)^2]}}=1  

We have a perfect linear relationship between the two variables

b) m=\frac{90}{15}=6  

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

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{18}{9}=2  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{153}{9}=17  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x=17-(6*2)=5  

So the line would be given by:  

y=6 x +5  

c) For this case the slope indicates that for each increase of the number of hours in 1 unit we have an expected increase in the score about 6 units.

And the intercept 5 represent the minimum score expected for any game

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

Number of hours spent practicing (x) 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4

Score in the game (y) 5 8 11 14 17 20 23 26 29

Part a

The correlation coefficient is given:

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=9 \sum x = 18, \sum y = 153, \sum xy = 396, \sum x^2 =51, \sum y^2 =3141  

r=\frac{9(396)-(18)(153)}{\sqrt{[9(51) -(18)^2][9(3141) -(153)^2]}}=1  

We have a perfect linear relationship between the two variables

Part b

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}  

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}=51-\frac{18^2}{9}=15  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=396-\frac{18*153}{9}=90  

And the slope would be:  

m=\frac{90}{15}=6  

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

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{18}{9}=2  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{153}{9}=17  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x=17-(6*2)=5  

So the line would be given by:  

y=6 x +5  

Part c

For this case the slope indicates that for each increase of the number of hours in 1 unit we have an expected increase in the score about 6 units.

And the intercept 5 represent the minimum score expected for any game
