Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

WeknowthatsinceABCisarightangledtriangle,  

AB2+BC2=AC2

82+152=AC2

64+225=AC2

AC2=289

AC=289−−−√=17

Hypotenuse=17cm

Which equation of the least squares regression line most closely matches the data set?
Rudiy27

Answer: y = 3.5 x+ 43.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here x represents the number of years after 1990

Thus, we get the table that is used to find the equation will be,

x             0                  2                4               6                8

y             45                51               57            61               75

Let the equation that shows the above data,

y = b + a x ---------(1)

\text{Where, }a=\frac{\sum y \sum x^2-\sum x \sum xy}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}

\text{And, }b = \frac{\sum xy - \sum x\sum y}{n\sum x^2 - (\sum x)^2}

By the above table,

\sum x = 20

\sum xy = 1296

\sum x^2 = 120

\sum y = 289

By substituting these values in the above value of a and b,

We get b = 43.8 and a = 3.5

Substitute this value in equation (1)

we get, the equation that shows the given data is,

y = 3.5 x + 43.8

⇒ Option (3) is correct.

A die is rolled 2 times. What is the probability of getting a 2 on the first roll and a 5 on the second roll?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

the chance of rolling a 2 on a 6-sided die is 1/6 and rolling a 5 on a 6-sided is also 1/6.

So, 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36

Hope this is helpful

Item 3
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

By an online search, i found that the options are:

Option A. A(10)

Option B. A(11)-A(9)

Option C. A(10)/10

Option D. A’(10)

Let´s start by defining the concept of a derivative.

When we have a function f(x), the derivative, f´(x), is a measure of the rate of change of f(x) with respect to the variable x.

Then if A(t) represents the area covered by the oil, A´(t) is the rate of change of this area as a function of t.

Particularly, A´(10), will be the rate of change at t = 10.

Then the correct option is: Option D. A´(10)

Find the average rate of change for the given function from x = 1 to x = 2.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change from x=1 to x=2 is the same as finding the slope of a line at x=1 and x=2.

So we are going to need to corresponding y coordinates.

What y corresponds to x=1? y=3

What y corresponds to x=2? y=5

So we have the ordered pairs (1,3) and (2,5).

Line the points up vertically and subtract vertically then put 2nd difference over 1st difference.

(2 , 5)

-(1  , 3)

-----------

1      2

The average rate of change is 2/1 or just 2.

Now since we were asked to find the average rate of change given the function was a line, it really didn't matter what two points you used on that line.
