Answer:

x = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(5 x)/2 = 25/4

Hint: | Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Multiply both sides of (5 x)/2 = 25/4 by 2/5:

(2×5 x)/(5×2) = 2/5×25/4

Hint: | Express 2/5×5/2 as a single fraction.

2/5×5/2 = (2×5)/(5×2):

(2×5)/(5×2) x = 2/5×25/4

Hint: | Express 2/5×25/4 as a single fraction.

2/5×25/4 = (2×25)/(5×4):

(2×5 x)/(5×2) = (2×25)/(5×4)

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (2×5 x)/(5×2).

(2×5 x)/(5×2) = (5×2)/(5×2)×x = x:

x = (2×25)/(5×4)

Hint: | In (2×25)/(5×4), divide 25 in the numerator by 5 in the denominator.

25/5 = (5×5)/5 = 5:

x = (2×5)/4

Hint: | In (2×5)/4, divide 4 in the denominator by 2 in the numerator.

2/4 = 2/(2×2) = 1/2:

Answer: x = 5/2

Answer:

8x² + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x² + 3)² - (x² - 1)² ← expand both factors using FOIL

= $x^{4}$ + 6x² + 9 - ( $x^{4}$ - 2x² + 1) ← distribute by - 1

= $x^{4}$ + 6x² + 9 - $x^{4}$ + 2x² - 1 ← collect like terms

= 8x² + 8

In a study relating the degree of warping, in mm, of a copper plate (y) to temperature in °C (x), the following summary statisti

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The error sum of squares is SSE=12.97

The regression sum of squares is SSR=6.430

The total sum of squares is SST=19.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear regression is a way "to modeling the relationship between a scalar response (or dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables)".

Regression estimates are "used to describe data and to explain the relationship between one dependent variable and one or more independent variables"

The linear model is given by the following equation $Y=mx +b$ , where y is the dependent variable, x the independent variable, m the slope and b the intercept.

For this case we have the following info given:

$\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar x)^2 =98775$

$\sum_{i=1}^n (y_i -\bar y)^2 =19.4$

$\bar x =26.36$

$\bar y =0.5188$

n= 40 represent the sample size

$\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar x)(y_i -\bar y) =796.94$

The total sum of squares is given by this formula:

$SST= \sum_{i=1}^n (y_i -\bar y)^2 =19.4$

And from the formulas for a simple regression, we need to calculate the slope for the regression like this:

$m=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar x)(y_i -\bar y)}{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar x)^2}$

And if we replace the values given we have:

$m=\frac{796.94}{98775}=0.008068$

We have another useful equation in order to find the sum of squares for the regression, given by:

$SSR=m* \sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar x)(y_i -\bar y)=0.008068*796.94=6.430$

And we know this equivalence:

$SST= SSR+SSE$

And solving for the sum of squares for the error we have:

$SSE=SST-SSR=19.4-6.430=12.97$

So then we have the final solutions:

The error sum of squares is SSE=12.97

The regression sum of squares is SSR=6.430

The total sum of squares is SST=19.4

Alice Correa bought three yards of cloth to make a dress. The cloth was on sale for $1.93 per yard.

Ray Of Light [21]

Since the unit rate is $1.93 per yard, you need to multiply the number of yards by 1.93. So 1.93 x 3 = 5.79. Next, you convert 5% to a decimal, which is 0.05. Now, multiply 5.79 by 0.05, which is about 0.29. Finally, add 0.29 to 5.79, giving you the answer of 6.08. Alice payed $6.08; D.
