Suppose the following regression equation was generated from the sample data of 50 cities relating number of cigarette packs sol

d per 1000 residents in one week to tax in dollars on one pack of cigarettes and if smoking is allowed in bars:
PACKS i= 57221.431732 − 1423.696906TAXi + 155.441784BARSi + ei.
BARS i= 1 if city i allows smoking in bars and BARSi = 0 if city i does not allow smoking in bars. This equation has an R2 value of 0.351292, and the coefficient of BARSi has a P-value of 0.086529. Which of the following conclusions is valid?
A. According to the regression equation, regardless of whether or not smoking is allowed in bars, the number of cigarette packs sold per 1000 people decreases by approximately 1424 for each additional dollar of cigarette tax.
B. There is evidence at the 0.05 level of significance to support the claim that cities with a smoking ban have lower cigarette sales than those without a smoking ban.
C. According to the regression equation, cities that allow smoking in bars have lower cigarette sales than cities that do not allow smoking in bars.
D. According to the regression equation, cities that allow smoking in bars sell approximately 155 fewer packs of cigarettes per 1000 people than cities that do not allow smoking in bars.

Answer:

A) According to the regression equation, regardless of whether or not smoking is allowed in bars, the number of cigarette packs sold per 1000 people decreases by approximately 1424 for each additional dollar of cigarette tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation:

PACKS i= 57221.431732 − 1423.696906TAXi + 155.441784BARSi + eᵢ.

BARS i= 1 if city i allows smoking in bars

BARSi = 0 if city i does not allow smoking in bars

R2 = 0.351292

P-value = 0.086529

Conlusion:

Simnce p value, 0.0865 is greater than level of significance, 0.05, BARS is not significant. Thus, allowing smoking in bars increase cigarette sales, since the coefficient of BARS is positive.

Correct answer is option A.

According to the regression equation, regardless of whether or not smoking is allowed in bars, the number of cigarette packs sold per 1000 people decreases by approximately 1424 for each additional dollar of cigarette tax.

Two trains leave stations 360 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 70 miles per hour
cricket20 [7]
S=d/t     ⇒d=s*t
s=speed
d=distance
t=time

The first train :
d=x

x=70 miles/h*t                             ⇒   x=70t  (1)

The second train
d=360 miles - x

360 miles - x=80 miles/h*t          ⇒360-x=80t   ⇒ x=360-80t   (2)

therefore, with the equations (1) and (2) we have a systeme of equations:

x=70t
x=360-80t

we can solve this system of equations by equalization method.

70t=360-80t
70t+80t=360
150t=360
t=360/150=2.4     (≈2 hour  24 minutes)

Answer:  the first train meet with the second train in 2 hour 24 minutes.

Pls help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

H

Step-by-step explanation:

To find purple, you divide 162 by 3 as there are 3 people who like red for every one person who like purple. To find blue, you need to divide 162 by 3, which is 54, and then multiply it by 9 because there were 9 people who like blue for every person that liked purple.

the ratio of horses to chickens on a farm is 9:4. If there are a total of 169 animals, how many chickens are on the farm?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<h2> 52 chickens</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:'

given

we are told that the total number of animals is 169

the ratio of horses to chickens= 9:4

total ratio= 13

Required:

number of chickens

Applying part to all principle, let the number of chickens be x

4/13=x/169

cross multiply

4*169=13*x

divide both sides by 13

x=4*169/13

x=676/13

x=52

There are 52 chickens
