Answer:

Therefore, the area of the ellipse is:

                                               Area = 78.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of the ellipse is

\:a\:\times \:b\:\times \:\pi

The major axis of an ellipse = 25 inches

The minor axis of an ellipse = 4 inches

  • The value of a = major axis/2 = 25/2 = 12.5 inches
  • The value of b = minor axis/2 = 4/2 = 2 inches

Thus

The area of the ellipse:

                                     Area = \:a\:\times \:b\:\times \:\pi

                                              =\:12.5\:\times\:2\:\times\:\pi

                                              =25\pi

                                               =78.5 inches     ∵ \pi =3.14

Therefore, the area of the ellipse is:

                                               Area = 78.5 inches

A Square was altered so that one side is increased by 9 inches in the other side is decreased by 2 inches.The area of the result
LekaFEV [45]

Let s represent the length of any one side of the original square.  The longer side of the resulting rectangle is s + 9 and the shorter side s - 2.

The area of this rectangle is (s+9)(s-2) = 60 in^2.

This is a quadratic equation and can be solved using various methods.  Let's rewrite this equation in standard form:  s^2 + 7s - 18 = 60, or:

s^2 + 7s - 78 = 0.  This factors as follows:  (s+13)(s-6)=0, so that s = -13 and s= 6.  Discard s = -13, since the side length cannot be negative.  Then s = 6, and the area of the original square was 36 in^2.

4-13 Students in a management science class have just re- ceived their grades on the first test. The instructor has provided inf
inessss [21]

Answer:

a) y = 0.74x + 18.99; b) 80; c) r = 0.92, r² = 0.85; r² tells us that 85% of the variance in the dependent variable, the final average, is predictable from the independent variable, the first test score.

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a,

We first plot the data using a graphing calculator.  We then run a linear regression on the data.

In the form y = ax + b, we get an a value that rounds to 0.74 and a b value that rounds to 18.99.  This gives us the equation

y = 0.74x + 18.99.

For part b,

To find the final average of a student who made an 83 on the first test, we substitute 83 in place of x in our regression equation:

y = 0.74(83) + 18.99

y = 61.42 + 18.99 = 80.41

Rounded to the nearest percent, this is 80.

For part c,

The value of r is 0.92.  This tells us that the line is a 92% fit for the data.

The value of r² is 0.85.  This is the coefficient of determination; it tells us how much of the dependent variable can be predicted from the independent variable.
