Answer:
57.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant of proportionality is "k" in the equation ...
y = kx
It can be found from values of x and y using ...
k = y/x
For the given values, it is ...
k = (287.5 mi)/(5 h) = 57.5 mi/h
The constant of proportionality relating miles to hours is 57.5.
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x, we need to get x alone on one side of the equation.
Add one to each side of the equation. Subtract 8x from each side of the equation. Divide both sides by -7. You should get 1 as the answer.
9.8 is the middle number which is the median
B. The median of the data set
**Update; A. The lower quartile**
See other answer for explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
To check out how efficient or accurate a model is, we use the akaike information criterion or the Bayesian. If the AIC or BIC are lower, then this model would be better. They are also used to control for model complexity
Akaike information criterion = 2k-2ln where k is the number of parameter. A higher k gives a higher AIC.
In the real world complex models are discouraged and avoided since
1. They cause data to be over fitted and can capture noise and information from this data.
2. They are complex and therefore difficult to interpret
3. They consume a lot of time and computing them has several inefficiencies.
Using these two as measure of performance, we can select optimal choice of independent variable.
With forward/backward regression, we are able to put new variables in the model or remove from it. The best is the one with lowest AIC.
