Answer:

The model does not fits the data well.      

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation:

  • Correlation is a technique that help us to find or define a relationship between two variables.
  • It is a measure of linear relationship between two quantities.
  • A positive correlation means that an increase in one quantity leads to an increase in another quantity
  • A negative correlation means with increase in one quantity the other quantity decreases.

R-square, R^2

  • The quantity R-squared is an indicator of the predictive power of a model.
  • It explains the variation in the dependent variable due to independent variable.
  • It shows how well the model fits the data.
  • R-squared is also known as the  coefficient of determination.

R^2 = \text{(Correlation coefficient)}^2= (0.6)^2 = 0.36 = 36\%

Therefore, only 36% of the variations in the dependent variable is explained by the independent variable in the model which means more than 50% of variation cannot still be explained in the dependent variable.

Hence, the model does not fits the data well.

Evaluate this expression <br> (-7--9)*(8+2)
Marizza181 [45]
Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.

P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction

Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.
 
(-7 - -9) *(8 + 2)
 (2) *(10)

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

(2)*(10) = 20

20 is the answer.

The side of rhombus is 14 in. The obtuse angle is 160º. Find the longer diagonal of the rhombus.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

x = 27.57 in to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The longer diagonal  is opposite the obtuse angle.

Also as it is a rhombus all sides = 14 in.

Use the Cosine Rule:

x^2 = 14^2 + 14^2 - 2*14^2 cos 160

x^2 =  760.36

x = sqrt 760.36

x = 27.57 in.

sladkih [1.3K]
A ) \sqrt[4]{ x^{3} } = x^{3/4}
B ) \frac{1}{ x^{-1} } = x
C ) \sqrt[10]{ x^{5} * x^{4}* x^{2}  } = \sqrt[10]{ x^{11} }= x^{11/10}
D ) x^{1/3} * x^{1/3} * x^{1/3} = x
Therefore: B = D

timurjin [86]
You have to multiply the number of people times the number of cookies they are each supposed to get

So, 28 x 3 = 84 cookies
