Answer:
D. is used to reveal an underlying pattern in the data.
Step-by-step explanation:
Smoothing a time series is achieved when a computer uses some pre-programmed calculation methods to remove noise from large volumes of data. Smoothing helps a user detect patterns in a set of data, thus making it possible to make future predictions. For example, smoothing can be used in the prediction of the rise and fall of stock prices. This helps the traders to have an idea of what to expect in the cost of trading.
Although smoothing reveals the patterns in a set of data, it provides no explanation as to why it is so. It is left to the researcher to draw conclusions as to the reasons for the patterns.
It was stated in the problem that a given volume of a is inversely proportional with the pressure of the system. It means that the as the volume increases, the pressure would decrease and as the volume decreases, the pressure would increase. We would express it as:
V α 1/P
To change it to an equality, we introduce a proportionality constant, k. We do as follows:
V = k/P
So, to determine what is asked, we need to first calculate for the value of k.
V = k/P
At V = 160 m^3 P = 108 cmHg
160 = k / (108)
k = 17280
Thus, at P = 87 cmHg
V = 17280 / 87
V = 198.62 m^3
Answer:
y=17
Step-by-step explanation:4(y+8)=100
We move all terms to the left:
4(y+8)-(100)=0
We multiply parentheses
4y+32-100=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
4y-68=0
We move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right
4y=68
y=68/4
y=17
