A researcher wishes to examine the relationship between years of schooling completed and the number of pregnancies in young wome

n. Her research discovers a linear relationship, and the least squares line is: ˆ y = 3 − 5 x y^=3-5x where x is the number of years of schooling completed and y is the number of pregnancies. The slope of the regression line can be interpreted in the following way:
1.) When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies decreases by 4.
2.) When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies increases by 4.
3.) When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies increases by 5.
4.) When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies decreases by 5.

Answer:

1. When amount of schooling increases by one year, the number of pregnancies will decrease by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis is a statistical technique which is used for forecasting. It determines the relationship between two variables. It determines the relationship of two or more dependent and independent variables. It is widely used in stats to find trend in the data. It helps to predict the values of dependent and independent variables. In the given question, there is regression equation given. X and Y are considered as dependent variables. When number of schooling increases by 1 year then number of pregnancies will decrease by 4

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

  • 5 km/h or 6 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let the speed of the boat be x
  • Speed against the current in the river is x - 2

<u>Time in the river:</u>

  • 6/(x - 2)

<u>Time in the lake:</u>

  • 15/x

<u>The difference:</u>

  • 6/(x - 2) = 15/x - 1

Solve for x to find the speed of the boat

<u>Multiply both sides by x(x - 2) to clear the fraction:</u>

  • 6x = 15(x - 2) - x(x - 2)
  • 6x = 15x - 30 - x² + 2x
  • x² - 11x + 30 = 0
  • (x - 5)(x - 6) =0
  • x -5 = 0, x - 6 = 0
  • x = 5 km/h, x = 6 km/h

2(n-1)+ 4n= 2 (3n -1)
muminat

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (n - 1) + 4n = 2 (3n - 1) Let's simplify this to solve it.

2n - 2 + 4n = 6n - 2 Distribute 2(n-1) and 2(3n-1)

2n + 4n - 2 = 6n - 2 Rearrange the left side of the equation.

6n - 2 = 6n - 2 Add 2n + 4n.

-6n        -6n Subtract 6n from both sides.

-2 = -2

the answer is infinitely many solutions, meaning that n can be any real number.

Luis can drive 3 times as fast as rico can ride his bike. If it takes rico 4 hours longer than Luis to travel 72 miles, how fast
beks73 [17]
<span>Let Rico's speed be S
Then Luis' is: 3S
</span>We then get: seventy-two over s equals seventy-two over three s plus four 
216=72+12s  Multiplying by LCD, 3S
216-72=12s
<span>144 = 12S
</span><span>S, or Rico's speed would be 144 over 12 or 12mph</span>
