Using the Chinese Remainder Theorem, solve the congruence x 15 (mod 42) x 5 (mod 19)

19 and 42 are coprime, so we can use the CRT right away. Start with

x=19+42

Taken mod 42, we're left with a remainder of 19. Notice that

19\cdot3\equiv57\equiv15\pmod{42}

so we need to multiply the first term by 3 to get the remainder we want.

x=19\cdot3+42

Next, taken mod 19, we're left with a remainder of 4. Notice that

42\cdot6\equiv252\equiv5\pmod{19}

so we need to multiply the second term by 6.

Then by the CRT, we have

x\equiv19\cdot3+42\cdot6\equiv309\pmod{42\cdot19}\implies x\equiv309\pmod{798}

so that any solution of the form x=798n+309 is a solution to this system.

The least-squares regression model y =−3.4+5.2x and correlation coefficient r=−0.66 were calculated for a set of bivariate data
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

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 this case the value of r = -0.66

Now we can calculate the determination coeffcient:

r^2 = (-0.66)^2 = 0.4356

And then we can conclude that 43.56% of the variation in y can be explained by the explanatory variable

And then 100-43.56 = 56.44 % of the variation in y that cannot be explained by the explanatory variable

Step-by-step explanation:

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}

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}

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

And we can find the intercept using this:

b=\bar y -m \bar x

And the model obtained for this case is:

y = -3.4 +5.2 x

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

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 this case the value of r = -0.66

Now we can calculate the determination coeffcient:

r^2 = (-0.66)^2 = 0.4356

And then we can conclude that 43.56% of the variation in y can be explained by the explanatory variable

And then 100-43.56 = 56.44 % of the variation in y that cannot be explained by the explanatory variable
