The equation governiong this relationship is y = kx.  Since y = 25 when x = 60,
25 = 60k, and k=(5/12).  Thus, the equation is   y = (5/12)x.

If y = 30, then 30 = (5/12)x.  Mult. both sides by 12/5 to obtain the value of x:

(12/5)(30) = 360/5 = 72

Answer:

m = -8

b = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem use the hint and put this equation in y = mx + b form. This is called slope-intercept form.

In slope-intercept form, the coefficient of x (which is m) is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line.

  • -32x - 4y = 96

Add 32x to both sides of the equation.

  • -4y = 32x + 96

Divide both sides of the equation by -4.

  • y = -8x - 24

Comparing this to y = mx + b, the -8 is "m" and -24 is "b". Therefore your final answers are:

m = -8

b = -24

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

There is a linear correlation between chest size and weight,0.8482

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a sample of eight​ bears, researchers measured the distances around the​ bears' chests and weighed the bears.

the value of the linear correlation coefficient is r = 0.921.

i.e. there is a strong positive correlation from the value of r.

H_0: r=0\\H_1: r\neq 0

(Two tailed test at 5% level for correlation coefficient)

Test statistic t = \frac{r\sqrt{n-2 } }{\sqrt{1-r^2}} \\=5.791

p value <0.00001

Since p is less than 0.05 we reject H0

a) There is a  linear correlation between chest size andweight

b)--  R^2 = 0.8482 proportion of the variation in weight can be explainedby the linear relationship between weight and chest size
