MONA LISA A visitor to the Louvre Museum in Paris wants to sketch a drawing of the Mona Lisa, a famous painting. The original pa

inting is 77 centimeters by 53 centimeters. Choose an appropriate scale for the replica so that it will fit on a 8.5-by-11-inch sheet of paper.

You need to find a scale factor of dilation (probably contraction) to make the replica.

Given that the units of the original painting are centimeters and the units of the sheet of paper are in inches, you have to convert one of the units.

I choose to covert inches to centimeters.

To do that, use the conversion factor 1 = 2.54 cm / inch

=> 8.5 in * [2.54 cm/in] = 21.59 cm

=> 11 in * [2.54 cm/in] = 27.94 cm

Now determine the scale factor to convert 77 cm to 27.94 cm and 53 cm to 21.59 cm. That just require use of division operation:

77 / 27.94 = 2.76

53 / 21.59 = 2.45

Then the higher scale factor is the relevant one, and you have to reduce the original painting by a factor of (1 / 2.76) which will lead to fit in the sheet of paper.

A cook used all of a two-pound chunk of cheese in making three recipes. Recipe I used one-third as much cheese as Recipe II did,
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Recipe I uses 10% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Recipe II uses 30% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Recipe II uses 60% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Recipe I uses 0.2 pounds of cheese.

Recipe II uses 0.6 pounds of cheese.

Recipe II uses 1.2 pounds of cheese.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of cheese = 2 pounds

Recipe I used one-third as much cheese as Recipe II did, and Recipe II used one-half as much cheese as Recipe III.

Let the amount of cheese used by recipe I, II and III be x, y and z respectively.

Total amount of cheese = 2 pounds

x + y + z = 2 (eqn 1)

Recipe I used one-third as much cheese as Recipe II did

x = (1/3)y

y = 3x

Recipe II used one-half as much cheese as Recipe III.

y = (1/2)z

z = 2y

z = 2y = 2(3x) = 6x

Substituting all of these into eqn 1

x + y + z = 2

x + 3x + 6x = 2

10x = 2

x = 0.2 pounds of cheese

y = 3x = 0.6 pounds of cheese

z = 6x = 1.2 pounds of cheese.

Recipe I uses (0.2/2) = 10% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Recipe II uses (0.6/2) = 30% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Recipe II uses (1.2/2) = 60% of the whole chunk of cheese.

Hope this Helps!!!

Suppose you are interested in the effect of skipping lectures (in days missed) on college grades. You also have ACT scores and h
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

a) For this case the intercept of 2.52 represent a common effect of measure for any student without taking in count the other variables analyzed, and we know that if HSGPA=0, ACT= 0 and skip =0 we got colGPA=2.52

b) This value represent the effect into the ACT scores in the GPA, we know that:

\hat \beta_{ACT} = 0.015

So then for every unit increase in the ACT score we expect and increase of 0.015 in the GPA or the predicted variable

c) If we are interested in analyze if we have a significant relationship between the dependent and the independent variable we can use the following system of hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis: \beta_i = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \beta_i \neq 0

Or in other wouds we want to check if an specific slope is significant.

The significance level assumed for this case is \alpha=0.05

Th degrees of freedom for a linear regression is given by df=n-p-1 = 45-3-1 = 41, where p =3 the number of variables used to estimate the dependent variable.

In order to test the hypothesis the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\hat \beta_i}{SE_{\beta_i}}

And replacing we got:

t = \frac{-0.5}{0.0001}=-5000

And for this case we see that if we find the p value for this case we will get a value very near to 0, so then we can conclude that this coefficient would be significant for the regression model .

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following multiple regression model calculated:

colGPA =2.52+0.38*HSGPA+0.015*ACT-0.5*skip

Part a

(a) Interpret the intercept in this model.

For this case the intercept of 2.52 represent a common effect of measure for any student without taking in count the other variables analyzed, and we know that if HSGPA=0, ACT= 0 and skip =0 we got colGPA=2.52

(b) Interpret \hat \beta_{ACT} from this model.

This value represent the effect into the ACT scores in the GPA, we know that:

\hat \beta_{ACT} = 0.015

So then for every unit increase in the ACT score we expect and increase of 0.015 in the GPA or the predicted variable

(c) What is the predicted college GPA for someone who scored a 25 on the ACT, had a 3.2 high school GPA and missed 4 lectures. Show your work.

For this case we can use the regression model and we got:

colGPA =2.52 +0.38*3.2 +0.015*25 - 0.5*4 = 26.751

(d) Is the estimate of skipping class statistically significant? How do you know? Is the estimate of skipping class economically significant? How do you know? (Hint: Suppose there are 45 lectures in a typical semester long class).

If we are interested in analyze if we have a significant relationship between the dependent and the independent variable we can use the following system of hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis: \beta_i = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \beta_i \neq 0

Or in other wouds we want to check if an specific slope is significant.

The significance level assumed for this case is \alpha=0.05

Th degrees of freedom for a linear regression is given by df=n-p-1 = 45-3-1 = 41, where p =3 the number of variables used to estimate the dependent variable.

In order to test the hypothesis the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\hat \beta_i}{SE_{\beta_i}}

And replacing we got:

t = \frac{-0.5}{0.0001}=-5000

And for this case we see that if we find the p value for this case we will get a value very near to 0, so then we can conclude that this coefficient would be significant for the regression model .
