Answer:

The solution is (8, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = 12..........(1)

y = 1/4x – 3 ..........(2)

Substitute y = x - 3 in equation (1):

2x + 4(1/4x - 3) = 12

2x + x - 12 = 12

3x = 24

x = 8.

Now substitute for x in equation (2):

y = 1/4 *8 - 3

y = -1.

QUESTION 3 - Distinguish whether the following pairs of events are dependent
TiliK225 [7]

Two eventis are independent if knowledge about the first doesn't change your expectation about the second.

a) Independent: After you know that the first die showed 4, you stille expect all 6 numbers from the second. So, the fact that the first die showed 4 doesn't change your expectation about the second die: it can still show numbers from 1 to 6 with probability 1/6 each.

b) Independent: It's just the same as before. After you know that the first coin landed on heads, you still expect the second coin to land on heads or tails with probability 1/2 each. Knowledge about the first coin changed nothing about your expectation about the second coin.

a) Dependent: In this case, there is a cause-effect relation, so the events are dependent: knowing that a person is short-sighted makes you almost sure that he/she will wear glasses. So, knowledge about being short sighted changed your expectation about wearing glasses.

Answer:

1.5.80 miles

2.9.80ft

3.56 inches

4.5.20 units

5. 13 units

6.5.40 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒These questions are on the Pythagorean relationship

⇒General expression is ;

a²+b²=c² where a and b are values for the legs and c is the hypotenuse

1. Isaiah waked 3 miles north and 5 miles east.

Finding the distance from starting point we apply the equation;

a²+b²=c² where a=5 miles and b=3miles

5²+3²=c²

25+9=c²

34=c²

c=√34 = 5.80 miles

2.The ladder is leaning against the wall to form the hypotenuse side of 10 ft.The distance from the base to the ladder forms side a= 2ft. The question requires you to calculate the height b.

a²+b²=c²

2²+b²=10²

4+b²=100

b²=100-4

b=√96

b=9.80 ft

3. The television has a diagonal of 70 inches to represent side c and a height of 42 inches to represent the side a. The question requires you to find the width of  the television which represents the side b

a²+ b²=c²

42²+b²=70²

b²=70²-42²

b=√3136

c=56 inches

4. An equilateral triangle is one that has all its sides and angles equal. Here you have to introduce a perpendicular line from the apex point of the triangle to the base and get the distance a.The using the hypotenuse and the distance a, you can find the height/b.

c= 6 units and a=6/2= 3 units

a²+b²=c²     3²+ b²= 6²

9+b²=36

b²=36-9

b=√27 =5.20 units

5.In this question, you are given the height and the width of the right triangle thus apply the relationship as;

a²+b²=c²..........where a=5 and b=12

5²+12²=c²

25+144=c²⇒⇒⇒c=√169 =13 units

6. In this question, the height of the plant represents side b and the distance of the base from where the string is tied is side b.You are to find the length of the string which represents the hypotenuse side.

a²+b²=c²

5²+2²=c²

25+4=c²

29=c²

√29=c

c=5.40 ft

You are considering developing a regression equation relating a dependent variable to two independent variables. One of the vari
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How many dummy variables are needed to represent the categorical variable?

We need 1 less dummy variable than outcomes for the categorical variable.

categorical variable has 2 outcomes

So, we need 2-1 = 1 dummy variable.

Answer: 1

Note: If our categorical variable had 5 outcomes, we would need 5-1 = 4 dummy variables.

b. Write the multiple regression equation relating the dependent variable to the independent variables.

Note: Depending your your professor, this can be written one of the following ways...

yhat = a + b1 x1 + bx2

yhat = b0 + b1 x1 + b2 x2

yhat = beta0hat + beta1hat x1 + betahat2 x2

where x1 is the ratio variable

and x2 is the dummy variable

c. Interpret the meaning of the coefficients in the regression equation.

b0 = the predicted value of y when x1 and x2 both equal 0.

b1 = the change in y when x1 increases by 1 unit holding x2 constant.

b2 = the predicted difference in y between the two possible outcomes of the categorical variable holding x1 constant.
