Answer:

B. 4\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle altitude theorem states that the altitude of a right angled triangles formed on the hypotenuse is equal to the geometric mean of the 2 line segments it creates.

This can be represented as:

h = \sqrt{(xy)}

Where,

h = the length of the altitude,

x and y are the lengths of the 2 segments formed.

Therefore, the length of the altitude = h = \sqrt{(14*8)}

h = \sqrt{112}

h = \sqrt{16}*\sqrt{7}

h = 4\sqrt{7}

In a teacher's math course, a linear regression line was calculated to predict
Marat540 [252]

The given equation is the best line that approximates the linear

relationship between the midterm score and the score in the final exam.

  • AJ's residual is 0.3, which is not among the given options, therefore, the correct option is. <u>E. None of these</u>.

Reasons:

The given linear regression line equation is; \hat y = 25.5 + 0.82·\mathbf{\hat x}

Where;

\hat y = Final exam score;

\hat x = The midterm score;

AJ score in the first test, \hat x = 90

AJ's actual score in the exam = 99

Required:

The value of AJ's residual

Solution:

By using the regression line equation, we have;

The predicted exam score, \hat y = 25.5 + 0.82 × 90 = 99.3

  • The residual score = Predicted score - Actual score

∴ AJ's residual = 99.3 - 99 = 0.3

AJ's residual = 0.3

Therefore, the correct option is option E;

  • <u>E. None of these</u>

WARRIOR [948]
In order to answer this question the parts must be broken down: 8^3 is 8*8*8 which equals 512 and 8^5 is 8*8*8*8*8 which equals 32761. 512*32761 equals 16777216. 167772176 is greater than 1.
