1.17 + 2.65p = 9
2.65p = 9 - 1.17
2.65p = 7.83
p = 7.83/2.65
p = 2.95.......maximum number of pens Linda can buy is 2

Prove the divisibility of the following numbers by 7

oee [108]

5^5 mod 7 = 3
5^4 mod 7 = 2
5^3 mod 7 = 6

3 -2 +6 mod 7 = 0
Therefore, 5^5 -5^4 +5^3 mod 7 = 0 and that sum is divisible by 7.

If a ants can dig b tunnels in c hours, how many tunnels can b ants dig in a hours?

Lilit [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

b²/c tunnels

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of tunnels per ant-hour is ...

b/(ac)

Multiplying that by the new number of ant-hours, we have ...

(b/(ac))(ab) = b²/c . . . . tunnels

What is the equation of the best-fitting regression line? Find this in two ways. First, using the regression analysis part of th

Lemur [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis is used to infer about the relationship between two or more variables.

The line of best fit is a straight line representing the regression equation on a scatter plot. The may pass through either some point or all points or none of the points.

<u>Method 1:</u>

Using regression analysis the line of best fit is: $y=\alpha +\beta x+e$

Here <em>α </em>= intercept, <em>β</em> = slope and <em>e</em> = error.

The formula to compute the intercept is:

$\alpha =\bar y-\beta \bar x$

Here<em> </em> $\bar y$ and $\bar x$ are mean of the <em>y</em> and <em>x</em> values respectively.

$\bar y=\frac{\sum y_{i}}{n} \\\bar x=\frac{\sum x_{i}}{n}$

The formula to compute the slope is:

$\beta =\frac{\sum (x-\bar x)(y - \bar y)}{\sum (x=\bar x)^{2}}$

And the formula to compute the error is:

$e=y-\alpha -\beta x$

<u>Method 2:</u>

The regression line can be determined using the descriptive statistics mean, standard deviation and correlation.

The equation of the line of best fit is:

$(y-\bar y)=r\frac{\sigma_{x}}{\sigma_{y}} (x-\bar x)$

Here <em>r</em> = correlation coefficient = $r=\frac{Cov (x,y)}{\sqrt{\sigma^{2}_{x}\sigma^{2}_{y}} }$

$\sigma_{x}$ and $\sigma_{y}$ are standard deviation of <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> respectively.

$\sigma_{x}=\frac{1}{n}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2} \\\sigma_{y}=\frac{1}{n}\sum (y-\bar y)^{2}$
