Answer:
(A) For each additional hundred dollars spent on advertising, sales are predicted to increase by $2,380.
Step-by-step explanation:
Regression isa statistical equation, denoting relationship between independent (causal) variable(s) & dependent (effected) variable.
y = a <u>+</u> bx
where y = dependent variable, x = dependent variable, a (intercept) = autonomous value of y, b (slope) = change in y due to change in x
Regression equation of independent variable (x) as advertising expenditure & dependent variable (y) sales : y = 24.45 + 2.38x
Sales are in thousands of dollars, advertising expenditure is in hundreds of dollars. So, the interpretations are :
- Intercept interpretation : When there is zero advertising expenditure, sales are 24.45 thousands i.e $24450
- Slope Interpretation :<u> When advertisement expenditure change (rise) by 1 hundred, sales change (rise) by 2.38 thousand i.e</u><u> </u><u>$2380</u>
You work it backwards.
-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.
-- That's what was left after he took 2 pieces for himself.
So he started with (16 + 2) = <em>18 pieces</em>.
Answer:
unreadable score = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to find the score of one exam that is no longer readable, let's give that score the name "x". we can also give the addition of the rest of 9 readable s scores the letter "R".
There are two things we know, and for which we are going to create equations containing the unknowns "x", and "R":
1) The mean score of ALL exams (including the unreadable one) is 80
so the equation to represent this statement is:
mean of ALL exams = 80
By writing the mean of ALL scores (as the total of all scores added including "x") we can re-write the equation as:

since the mean is the addition of all values divided the total number of exams.
in a similar way we can write what the mean of just the readable exams is:
(notice that this time we don't include the grade x in the addition, and we divide by 9 instead of 10 because only 9 exams are being considered for this mean.
Based on the equation above, we can find what "R" is by multiplying both sides by 9:

Therefore we can now use this value of R in the very first equation we created, and solve for "x":

Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 18 total eggs (cracked, white, brown) we can say that the denominator will be 18.
There are 8 white eggs, and when half of those are cracked there will be 4 uncracked and 4 cracked, so 4/18.
Simplify 4/18 to 2/9 and there is your answer.
