Answer:

Hello your question has a disjointed equation attached to it and it is also incomplete attached below is the correct and complete question

A teacher believes that the third homework assignment is a key predictor in how well students will do on the midterm. Let x represent the third homework score and y the midterm exam score. A random sample of last terms students were selected and their grades are shown below

answer :

y-intercept = 25.9047

slope = 2.8420

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the slope for the regression equation and y intercept

The regression equation ( gotten using excel ; attached below is the excel sample on how the equation was gotten )

y = 25.9047 + 2.8420x

from the equation gotten above

y-intercept = 25.9047

slope = 2.8420

Point C ∈ AB , AB = 30m. Point C is 1.5 times farther from point A than from point B. Find AC and CB.

Shtirlitz [24]

let's say that C is "x" units farther from B, that means that CB = x, and therefore AC = 1.5x.

$\bf \underset{\leftarrow ~~30~~\to}{\boxed{A}\stackrel{1.5x}{\rule[0.35em]{18em}{0.25pt}}C\stackrel{x}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}\boxed{B}}
\\\\\\
AB=AC+CB\implies \stackrel{AB}{30}=\stackrel{AC}{1.5x}+\stackrel{CB}{x}\implies 30=2.5x
\\\\\\
\cfrac{30}{2.5}=x\implies 12=x
\\\\[-0.35em]
~\dotfill\\\\
AC=1.5(12)\implies AC=18~\hspace{8em} CB=x\implies CB=12$

1) Anna and Jason have summer jobs stuffing envelopes for two different companies. Anna earns $20 for every 400 envelopes she fi

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A) i)

For Anna initially, she has $0 from making 0 envelopes. After making 400 envelopes she has $20. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (400, 20). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{20-0}{400-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{20} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 10 20 30 40 50

ii)

For Jason initially, he has $0 from making 0 envelopes. For every 250 envelopes he has $10. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{10-0}{250-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{25} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 8 16 24 32 40

The graph is plotted using geogebra online graphing

b) From the table above we can see that Anna makes more stuffing than Jason.

c) Anna has a savings of $100. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 100) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-100=\frac{20-0}{400-100}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{15} x+100$

We can see from the graph that there is a y intercept at 100. That is the earnings starts from 100.

The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial value)

For the first graph, the slope is 1/20 and the initial value is 0 while for the second graph the slope is 1/15 and the initial value is 100

D) The line pass through (10, 10) and (100, 40), hence:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-10=\frac{40-10}{100-10}(x-10)\\\\y-10=\frac{1}{3} (x-10)\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}$

What percent of 29.5 is 10.03

Alexxandr [17]

So if we take 29.5 to be the 100%, what is 10.03 in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
29.5&100\\
10.03&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{29.5}{10.03}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{10.03\cdot 100}{29.5}$
