2 answers:

8 0

$p \% \ of \ 27=17 \\\\ \frac{p}{100}*27=17 \\\\ \frac{p}{100}=\frac{17}{27} \\\\ p=\frac{100*17}{27} \\\\ \boxed{p=\frac{1700}{27}}$

Total students = 27
total men = 17
Now,
Fraction of man in class = total men / total students
= 17 / 27
Since, the fraction can't be further simplified, the answer is $\frac{17}{27}$

slamgirl [31]

The regression equation of Y on X is given by the following formula:

$Y-\bar{Y}=b_{yx}(X-\bar{X})$

Where byx is given by the formula:

$b_{yx}=\frac{N\sum^{}_{}XY-\sum^{}_{}X\sum^{}_{}Y}{N\sum^{}_{}X^2-(\sum^{}_{}X)^2}$

Where N is the number of values (N=8). We need to find the sum of X values, the sum of Y values, the average of X, the average of Y, the sum of X*Y and the sum of X^2.

The table of values is:

The values we need to know are on the following table:

By replacing the known values in the formula we obtain:

$\begin{gathered} b_{yx}=\frac{8\cdot26125-167\cdot995}{8\cdot4649-(167)^2} \\ b_{yx}=\frac{209000-166165}{37192-27889} \\ b_{yx}=\frac{42835}{9303} \\ b_{yx}=4.6 \end{gathered}$

Now, the average of X and Y is the sum divided by N, then:

$\begin{gathered} \bar{X}=\frac{167}{8}=20.87 \\ \bar{Y}=\frac{995}{8}=124.37 \end{gathered}$

Replace these values in the formula and find the regression equation as follows:

$\begin{gathered} Y-124.37=4.6(X-20.87) \\ Y-124.37=4.6X-4.6\cdot20.87 \\ Y=4.6X-96.11+124.37 \\ Y=4.6X+28.26 \end{gathered}$

The answer is a) y=4.6x+28.26

The GCF of two numbers is 850 neither number is divisible by the other what is the smallest these two numbers can be?

saul85 [17]

Began by dividing 850 by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, and I made a list of the whole numbers.

They were 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 25, 34, 50, 85, 170, 425, and 850

By inspection, the two smallest numbers which when multiplied together yielded 850 were 25 and 34.

What is the value of y if (4y + 8) - (7y - 12) = 11? (PLEASE ANSWER + 10 POINTS!!!!)?

lyudmila [28]

Hello!

(4y + 8) - (7y - 12) = 11 is 1(4y + 8) - 1(7y - 12) = 11

1(4y + 8) - 1(7y - 12) = 11 Given
4y + 8 - 7y + 12 = 11 Distribute the 1 and the -1
-3y + 20 = 11 Combine like terms
-3y = -9 Subtract 20 from both sides
y = 3 Divide both sides by -3

Answer:
y = 3

Answer: 1/4

Explanation: Because there is a 1/2 chance that a female will get the first job, and a half chance that a lady will get a second job. So (1/2)*(1/2)=(1/4)
