-100 is rational.

-100 can be turned into a fraction by doing the following...

Just put 1 underneath -100 and you get $\frac{-100}{1}$

So that means it is rational since it can be a fraction!

The general form for a linear equation is given as: y = a + bx. In the regression equation, b is called the ______.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Slope

Step-by-step explanation:

In the regression equation y=a+bx, y is dependent variable and x is independent variable. It means that due to change in x the y changes respectively. The "a" is intercept of the model and it shows the value of y when x is zero. The "b" is the slope of the model and it depicts the change in y due to unit change in x. The positive value of b means that as the x increases y also increases and as the x decreases y also decreases. The negative value of b means that as the x decreases y increases and as the x increases the y decreases.The sign of b shows the type of relationship between independent and dependent variable.

A random variable X follows the uniform distribution with a lower limit of 670 and an upper limit of 750.a. Calculate the mean a

DENIUS [597]

You can compute both the mean and second moment directly using the density function; in this case, it's

$f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\frac1{750-670}=\frac1{80}&\text{for }670\le x\le750\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

Then the mean (first moment) is

$E[X]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x\,f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{80}\int_{670}^{750}x\,\mathrm dx=710$

and the second moment is

$E[X^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^2\,f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{80}\int_{670}^{750}x^2\,\mathrm dx=\frac{1,513,900}3$

The second moment is useful in finding the variance, which is given by

$V[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2=\dfrac{1,513,900}3-710^2=\dfrac{1600}3$

You get the standard deviation by taking the square root of the variance, and so

$\sqrt{V[X]}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1600}3}\approx23.09$

1 2/5m-3/5(2/3m+1) How do you solve this problem

igor_vitrenko [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what you mean by "solve".

I assume you mean simplify the expression.

and then it is very tricky to find the true original expression the way you typed it.

I think you meant

1 2/(5m) - 3/(5(2/(3m + 1)))

1 = 5m/5m

1 2/(5m) = (5m+2)/5m

3/(5(2/(3m + 1))) = 3/(10/(3m + 1)) = 3/1 / (10/(3m + 1))

when dividing by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying with the upside-down fraction

so, this is the same as

3/1 × (3m + 1)/10 = (3(3m + 1)) / (10×1) = (9m + 3)/10

this would give us in total

(5m + 2)/5m - (9m + 3)/10

to do the subtraction we need to bring both fractions to the save denominator (lower part).

it seems to me the easiest one would be 10m.

so,

2×(5m + 2)/10m - m×(9m + 3)/10m =

= (10m + 4)/10m - (9m² + 3m)/10m =

= (10m + 4 - 9m² - 3m)/10m = (-9m² + 7m + 4)/10m

if we want to transform this back to a sum of fractions :

4/10m - (9m² - 7m)/10m = 2/5m - (9m - 7)/10
