Solve 5x = 2 written a afrction inits simplest form

Elden [556K]

Answer:

x = 2/5

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Write equation</u>

5x = 2

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

Divide both sides by 5: x = 2/5

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution</em>.

Substitute: 5(2/5) = 2
Multiply: 10/5 = 2
Divide: 2 = 2

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immedia

Hatshy [7]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immediately after giving the most recent test, he surveyed each of the 24 students in his class and asked them how many hours of TV they watched that week. He then matched each student's test grade with his or her survey response. After compiling the data, he used hours of TV watched to predict each student's test score. He found the least-squares regression line to be y" = -1.5x + 85.

He also calculated that the value of r, the correlation, was -0.61.

what is the correct value of the coefficient of determination R² and give a correct interpretation of its meaning

Answer:

Interpretation of coefficient of determination R² = 0.3721

R² = 0.3721, meaning 37.21% of the total variation in test scores can be explained by the least square regression line

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the least square regression line is;

y" = -1.5x + 85

the correlation coefficient r = -0.61

Now, the coefficient of determination R² is square of correlation coefficient r

R² = -61²

R² = 0.3721

The Town of Hertfordshire clerk knows that 23% of dogs in the town have completed emotional support training. Hertfordshire plan

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

95.64% probability that under 30% of the dogs are emotional support trained

Step-by-step explanation:

For each dog, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have completed emotional support training, or they have not. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

However, we are working with samples that are considerably big. So i am going to aproximate this binomial distribution to the normal.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = E(X) = np = 100*0.23 = 23$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{100*0.23*0.77} = 4.21$

What is the probability that under 30% of the dogs are emotional support trained?

30% of 100 is 0.3*100 = 30

So this is the pvalue of Z when X = 30.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{30 - 23}{4.1}$

$Z = 1.71$

$Z = 1.71$ has a pvalue of 0.9564.

So there is a 95.64% probability that under 30% of the dogs are emotional support trained
