Year 1978 1979 1980 1990 1991 1996 1997 2007 2008 2009 Minimum hourly wage ($) 2.65 2.90 3.35 3.80 4.25 4.75 5.15 5.85 6.55 7.25

Write the least squares regression equation that models the data. Let x = time in years since 1900 and let y = minimum hourly wage. (Round your values to the nearest hundredth.) Use the equation to estimate the minimum hourly wage of a Colorado State worker in 2025. Show your work.

From the excel plotting, we see that the least square regression equation is given by:
m=(7.25-2.65)/(2009-1978)
m=0.15
thus the equation will be:
0.15(x-0)=y-2.65
y=0.15x-2.65

b] Using the equation we can approximate the hourly wage in 2025 as follows:
x=(2025-1978)=47
y=0.15(47)-2.65
y=7.05-2.65
y=4.4
The plot is as shown in the figure:

In a study of brand recognition, 795 consumers knew of Amazon, and 10 did not. Use these results to estimate the probability tha
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected consumer will recognize Amazon is 0.988.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given in the question is

Total number of consumers = 795 + 10 = 805

Consumers who knew of Amazon = 795

Consumers who did not know of Amazon = 10

The formula for calculating probability of an event A is:

P(A) = No. of favourable outcomes/Total no. of possible outcomes

P(Recognize Amazon) = No. of Consumers who knew Amazon/Total no. of consumers

P(Recognize Amazon) = 795/805

                                     = 0.98757

P(Recognize Amazon) ≅ 0.988

The probability that a randomly selected consumer will recognize Amazon is 0.988.

4. If the sides of a square measure 9V3 units, then find the length of the diagonal.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the diagonal, use Pythagorean theorem,

diagonal² = side² + side²

                = (9√3)² + (9√3)²

                = 9²(√3)² + 9²(√3)²

                = 81*3 + 81*3

                = 243 + 243

                 = 486

diagonal = √486 = 22.05 units

Which of the following is NOT a requirement of testing a claim about a population proportion using a formal method of hypothesis
Pie

Answer:

A. The lowercase​ symbol, p, represents the probability of getting a test statistic at least as extreme as the one representing sample data and is needed to test the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditions  required for testing  of a claim about a population proportion using a formal method of hypothesis​ testing are:

1) The sample observations are a simple random sample.

2) The conditions for a binomial distribution are satisfied

3) The conditions np5 and nq5 are both satisfied. i.e n: p≥ 5and q≥ 5

These conditions are given in th options b,c and d.

Option A is not a condition for testing  of a claim about a population proportion using a formal method of hypothesis​ testing.

Y=(3/5)x -3 and 5y =3x-10 these lines are and the second question?
azamat
Look at the first line:  y = (3/5)x - 3.  What happens if you multiply each term by 5, to eliminate the fraction?

5y = 3x - 3

Compare this to the second equation, 

5y - 3x = -10, or 5y = 3x - 10.

The coefficients of x and y (as 3 and 5 here) determine the slope of a straight line.  Since 5y = 3x is present in both equations, the two lines MUST be parallel.



y = 4
4y = 6   =>   y = 6/4

y+4 and y =3/2 are both horizontal lines.  Since they are horiz., they are parallel.
