Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data from the scatter plot is as follows:

Arm Span      Height

   19.5               25

   35.5              35

   37.0              39

   40.5             40

   44.5             45

   45.5             50

   49.0             49

    51.0             55

   52.5             47

   59.0             60

   61.0              58

(1)

Compute the value of slope and intercept as follows:

\sum{X} = 495 ~,~ \sum{Y} = 503 ~,~ \sum{X \cdot Y} = 23822 ~,~ \sum{X^2} = 23660.5

\begin{aligned}        b &= \frac{\sum{Y} \cdot \sum{X^2} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{XY} }{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2} =             \frac{ 503 \cdot 23660.5 - 495 \cdot 23822}{ 11 \cdot 23660.5 - 495^2} \approx 7.174 \\ \\m &= \frac{ n \cdot \sum{XY} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{Y}}{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2}        = \frac{ 11 \cdot 23822 - 495 \cdot 503 }{ 11 \cdot 23660.5 - \left( 495 \right)^2} \approx 0.857\end{aligned}

The equation of the line of best fit is, <em>y</em> = 0.857·<em>x</em> + 7.174.

(2)

The slope of the line represent the rate of change in <em>y</em> caused by one unit change in <em>x</em>.

In this case the slope of <em>m</em> = 0.857 indicates that as the arm span increases by 1 unit the height increases by 0.857 units.

(3)

To perform the Residual Test, simply take two values from the table and interchange the <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> values.

Consider the values: (37, 39) and (51, 55)

Compute the value of <em>y</em> if <em>x</em> = 39:

y = 0.857\cdot x + 7.174\\=0.857\times 39+7.174\\=40.597\\\approx 40.6

The new value of <em>y</em> (40.6) is close to the original value (39.0)

Compute the value of <em>y</em> if <em>x</em> = 55:

y = 0.857\cdot x + 7.174\\=0.857\times 55+7.174\\=54.309\\\approx 54.0

The new value of <em>y</em> (54) is close to the original value (55)

Thus, it can be said that the line of best fit models the data provided.

(4)

The line of best fit is:

<em>y</em> = 0.857·<em>x</em> + 7.174

The slope of the line is positive.

This implies that there is a positive relationship between the two variables.

The formula of slope in terms of correlation coefficient is:

\text{Slope}=r\times\sqrt{\frac{Var(x)}{Var(x)}}

The correlation coefficient is directly proportional to the slope.

This implies that the correlation coefficient is also positive.

Thus, the variables Arm span and Height are positively correlated.

The figure is made from squares of different sizes.Find the area of A if the side of each of the two indentical smallest square
Temka [501]

Answer:

The area of square A is 256 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>The four sides of a square are equal in length</em>
  • <em>Area of a square = side × side</em>

In the given figure

∵ The sides of the square E = 2 cm each

∵ The sides of the square F = 2 cm each

∵ The side of square D is the sum of the sides of squares E and F

∴ The sides of the square D = 2 + 2 = 4 cm each

∵ The side of square C is the sum of the sides of squares E and D

∴ The sides of square C = 2 + 4 = 6 cm each

∵ The side of square B is the sum of the sides of squares C, E, and F

∴ The sides of square B = 6 + 2 + 2= 10 cm each

∵ The side of square A is the sum of the sides of squares B, F, and D

∴ The sides of square A = 10 + 2 + 4= 16 cm each

∵ Area of square A = side × side

∴ Area of square A = 16 × 16

∴ Area of square A = 256 cm²

∴ The area of square A is 256 cm²

Which binomial is a factor of the quadratic trinomial x2 − 7x + 12? A. (x − 6) B. (x + 2) C. (x − 4) D. (x + 3)
svet-max [94.6K]

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 7x + 12

Finding factors of 12

x2 - 4x - 3x + 12

x(x - 4) - 3(x - 4)

(x-4) (x-3) are the factors

Option C is the correct answer
