explanation;

Solution for 2x+1=5x-5 equation

Simplifying

2x + 1 = 5x + -5

Reorder the terms:

1 + 2x = 5x + -5

Reorder the terms:

1 + 2x = -5 + 5x

Solving

1 + 2x = -5 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

1 + 2x + -5x = -5 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 2x + -5x = -3x

1 + -3x = -5 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

1 + -3x = -5 + 0

1 + -3x = -5

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + -3x = -5 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + -3x = -5 + -1

-3x = -5 + -1

Combine like terms: -5 + -1 = -6

-3x = -6

Divide each side by '-3'.

x = 2

Simplifying

x = 2

The least-squares regression line is ________.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a. the line that passes through the most data points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis, is used to draw the line of‘ best ﬁt’ through co-ordinates on a graph. The techniques used enable a mathematical equation of the straight line form y=mx+c to be deduced for a given set of co-ordinate values, the line being such that the sum of the deviations of the co-ordinate values from the line is a minimum, i.e.

41% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a) 0.2087 = 20.82% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is exactly five.

b) 0.1834 = 18.34% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least six.

c) 0.3575 = 35.75% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than four.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have very little confidence in newspapers, or they do not. The answers of each adult are independent, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

41% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers.

This means that $p = 0.41$

You randomly select 10 U.S. adults.

This means that $n = 10$

(a) exactly five

This is $P(X = 5)$ . So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 5) = C_{10,5}.(0.41)^{5}.(0.59)^{5} = 0.2087$

0.2087 = 20.82% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is exactly five.

(b) at least six

This is:

$P(X \geq 6) = P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 6) = C_{10,6}.(0.41)^{6}.(0.59)^{4} = 0.1209$

$P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.41)^{7}.(0.59)^{3} = 0.0480$

$P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.41)^{8}.(0.59)^{2} = 0.0125$

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.41)^{9}.(0.59)^{1} = 0.0019$

$P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.41)^{10}.(0.59)^{0} = 0.0001$

Then

$P(X \geq 6) = P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.1209 + 0.0480 + 0.0125 + 0.0019 + 0.0001 = 0.1834$

0.1834 = 18.34% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least six.

(c) less than four.

This is:

$P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.41)^{0}.(0.59)^{10} = 0.0051$

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.41)^{1}.(0.59)^{9} = 0.0355$

$P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.41)^{2}.(0.59)^{8} = 0.1111$

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.41)^{3}.(0.59)^{7} = 0.2058$

$P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0051 + 0.0355 + 0.1111 + 0.2058 = 0.3575$

0.3575 = 35.75% probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than four.
