Raquel throws darts at a coordinate grid centered at the origin. Her goal is to create a line of darts. Her darts actually hit t

he coordinate grid at (–5, 0), (1, –3), (4, 5), (–8, –6), (0, 2), and (9, 6). Which equation best approximates the line of best fit of the darts?

Answer:

The line of best fit

y = 0.633x + 0.561

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates that the dart hit include

(–5, 0), (1, –3), (4, 5), (–8, –6), (0, 2), and (9, 6)

The x and y coordinates can be written as

x | y

-5|0

1 | -3

4|5

-8|-6

0|2

9|6

So, running the analysis on a spreadsheet application, like excel, the table of parameters is obtained and presented in the first attached image to this solution.

Σxᵢ = sum of all the x variables.

Σyᵢ = sum of all the y variables.

Σxᵢyᵢ = sum of the product of each x variable and its corresponding y variable.

Σxᵢ² = sum of the square of each x variable

Σyᵢ² = sum of the square of each y variable

n = number of variables = 6

The scatter plot and the line of best fit is presented in the second attached image to this solution

Then the regression analysis is then done

Slope; m = [n×Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)×(Σyᵢ)] / [nΣxᵢ² - (∑xi)²]

Intercept b: = [Σyᵢ - m×(Σxᵢ)] / n

Mean of x = (Σxᵢ)/n

Mean of y = (Σyᵢ) / n

Sample correlation coefficient r:

r = [n*Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)(Σyᵢ)] ÷ {√([n*Σxᵢ² - (Σxᵢ)²][n*Σyᵢ² - (Σyᵢ)²])}

And -1 ≤ r ≤ +1

All of these formulas are properly presented in the third attached image to this answer

The table of results; mean of x, mean of y, intercept, slope, regression equation and sample coefficient is presented in the fourth attached image to this answer.

Hope this Helps!!!

Six different colored dice are rolled. Of interest is the number of dice that show a one. In words, define the random variable X
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Six dice (each of a different color) are rolled. Since the number of times the 6 dice were rolled isn't stated, take it to be 1.

Hence, 6 dice are rolled at once for this experiment.

Of interest is the number of dice that show a "one". In other words, the variable in question (X) is:

The number of dots that show on the upward face of the rolled dice.

The values that X may take on are:

1  2  3  4  5  6

On average, how many dice would you expect to show a one?

One die.

How is this gotten? By finding the probability that a one or one dot appears when the 6 dice are rolled at once. Since there are 6 dice in number, and each die has the same 6 faces containing dots, the probability of getting a one is 1/6. In this case, one out of 6 dice is expected to show one dot.

Find the probability that all six dice show a dot in just one toss.

Logically, this probability is going to be very small! It is almost impossible for all 6 dice to land on the same face in just a single toss. In other words, expect many decimal places in the probability figure.

1/6 divided by 6  = 0.167/6  = 0.028 approximated to three decimal places.

This would also represent the probability that 2 dots, 3 dots, or any other number of dots appears on all dice in one toss!

Is it more likely (in this experiment) that 3 or 4 dice will show a one (a single dot)?

The answer is yes! It is more likely that 3 or 4 dice (instead of all 6) will show a one or will show the same number of dots.

Kudos!

A company sells boxes of duck calls (d) for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45. they make batches of duck calls that fill
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of boxes of duck calls and t be the number of boxes of turkey calls.

We have been given that a company sells boxes of duck calls for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45, so the revenue earned from selling d boxes of duck and t boxes of turkey call will be 35d and 45t respectively.

Further, the company plan to make $300. We can represent this information as:

35d+45t=300...(1)

We are also told that they make batches of duck calls that fill 6 boxes and batches of turkey calls that fill 8 boxes. the company only has 42 boxes. We can represent this information as:

6d+8t=42...(2)

6d=42-8t...(2)

Therefore, our desired system of equation will be:

35d+45t=300...(1)

6d=42-8t...(2)

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below?
jolli1 [7]
(-1,5)(2,4)
slope = (4 - 5) / (2 - (-1) = -1/3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/3
use either of ur points (2,4)...x = 2 and y = 4
now sub and find b, the y int
4 = -1/3(2) + b
4 = -2/3 + b
4 + 2/3 = b
12/3 + 2/3 = b
14/3 = b

so ur equation is : y = -1/3x + 14/3....however, this is not ur answer because it is not in standard form.

y = -1/3x + 14/3
1/3x + y = 14/3....multiply both sides by 3
x + 3y = 14 <=== standard form

Laws of cosines!!! find B round to the nearest tenth!!!! second time posting this help ASAP!!!​
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

32.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for law of cosines, for this question we need so solve for angle B, so use...

b² = a² + c² - 2(a)(c)Cos B

We are given a, b, and c, so plug them in...

55² = 90² + 50² - 2(90)(50)Cos B

Now simplify...

3,025 = 8100 + 2500 - (9000)Cos B

   -7,575 = -(9000)Cos B   (subtract 8100 and 2500 from both sides)  

   

       0.841666667 = Cos B    (divide both sides by -9000)

       Cos^(-1) 0.841666667 = B  (use cosine inverse function on calculator)

          32.68346376° = B

           32.7° = B
