The correct answer is C) (5m^50 - 11n^8) (5m^50 + 11n^8)
We can tell this because of the rule regarding factoring the difference of two perfect squares. When we have two squares being multiplied, we can use the following rule.
a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
In this case, or first term is 25m^100. So we can solve that by setting it equal to a^2.
a^2 = 25m^100 -----> take the square root of both sides
a = 5m^50
Then we can do the same for the b term.
b^2 = 121n^16 ----->take the square root of both sides
b = 11n^8
Now we can use both in the equation already given
(a - b)(a + b)
(5m^50 - 11n^16)(5m^50 + 11n^16)
We are asked to determine the correlation factor "r" of the given table. To do that we will first label the column for "Quality" as "x" and the column for "Easiness" as "y". Like this:
Now, we create another column with the product of "x" and "y". Like this:
Now, we will add another column with the squares of the values of "x". Like this:
Now, we add another column with the squares of the values of "y":
Now, we sum the values on each of the columns:
Now, to get the correlation factor we use the following formula:
Where:
Now we substitute the values, we get:
Solving the operations:
Therefore, the correlation factor is 0.858. If the correlation factor approaches the values of +1, this means that there is a strong linear correlation between the variables "x" and "y" and this correlation tends to be with a positive slope.
This response is based upon your having had some background in calculus. "dx" is not introduced before that.
Take a look at the sample function y = f(x) = x^2 + 9. Here x is the independent variable; the dependent variable y changes with x.
Now, for a big jump: we consider finding the area under a curve (graph) between x = a and x = b. We subdivide that interval [a,b] into n vertical slices of area. Each of those slices has its own area: f(x)*dx, where dx represents the width of such subarea. f(x)*dx is the actual subarea. To find the total area under the curve f(x) between x= a and x = b, we add up all of these individual subareas between x = a and x = b. Note that the subinterval width is
b-a
dx = ---------- , and that dx becomes smaller and smaller as the number of
n subintervals increases.
Once again, this all makes sense only if you've begun calculus (particularly integral calculus). Do not try to relate it to earlier math courses.
Answer:
- y = -5/2x + 5
- y = 2x -1
- y = 24/11
- y = 4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for y, subtract the x-term and divide by the coefficient of y.
5x +2y = 10
2y = -5x +10
y = -5/2x + 5
__
2y -4x = -2
2y = 4x -2
y = 2x -1
__
7y +4y = 24
y = 24/11
We assume there is a typo, but cannot tell what it is. Use the same method as described and demonstrated for the other problems.
__
-2x +1/2y = 2
1/2y = 2x +2
y = 4x +4
