Answer: Regression line equation:  \hat{y}=-1.008x+39.1704

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of least-squares regression line for predicting y :

\hat{y}=b_1x+b_o

, where \text{Slope} (b_1)=r\dfrac{s_y}{s_x} ,  \text{intercept}(b_0)=\bar{y}-b_1\bar{x}

Given: \bar{x}=8.8,\ s_x=1.5,\ s_y=1.8,\ \bar{y}=30.3,\ r=-0.84

Then,

b_1=(-0.84)\dfrac{ 1.8}{ 1.5}\\\\\Rightarrow\ b_1=-1.008

Now,

b_0=30.3-(-1.008)(8.8)=30.3+8.8704\\\\\Rightarrow\ b_0=39.1704

Then, Regression line equation:  \hat{y}=-1.008x+39.1704

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Let X the random variable who represents the file sizeof music. We know the following info:

\mu =2.3,\sigma =3.25

We select a sample of n=50 nails. That represent the sample size.  

Since the sample size is large enough n >30, we can use the central limit theorem. From this theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we can approximate the distribution of the sample mean as a normal distribution and no matter if the distribution for X is right skewed or no.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Let X the random variable who represents the file sizeof music. We know the following info:

\mu =2.3,\sigma =3.25

We select a sample of n=50 nails. That represent the sample size.  

Since the sample size is large enough n >30, we can use the central limit theorem. From this theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

The governor of state A earns 50, 440 more than the governor of state B. If the total of their salaries is $283,910, can you fin
WITCHER [35]
Use what we know to make equations in order to solve for each governor's salary.
A=governor of state A
B=governor of state B
A+b=283,910. (Their salaries combined)
A=B+50,440 (A earns 50,440 more than B)
Sub A into the original formula to solve for B
B+50,440+b=283,910
2B=283,910-50,440
2B=233,470
B=116,730
Sub B into the formula that's equal to A
A=B+50,440
A=116,735+50,440
A=167,175
I hope this helps!
