Answer:

The probability would be 0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The elements in set S are,

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10,

Number of elements = 10,

Since, the outcomes are equally likely,

And, we know that,

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

So, the probability of getting 1, 2, 4, or 6 = $\frac{4}{10}=0.40$

Hence, the probability of the event E = {1, 2, 4, 6} is 0.40.

Modern medical practice tells us not to encourage babies to become too fat. Is there a positive correlation between the weight x

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a) Figure attached

b) $y=1.31 x +98.57$

c) The correlation coefficient would be r =0.47719

d) $y=1.31 x +98.57=1.31*21 + 98.57 =126.08$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Draw a scatter diagram for the data.

See the figure attached

(b) Find x, y, b, and the equation of the least-squares line. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) x =__ y =__ b =__ y =__ + __x

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=6576-\frac{300^2}{14}=147.429$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=38186-\frac{300*1773}{14}=193.143$

And the slope would be:

$m=\frac{193.143}{147.429}=1.31$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{300}{14}=21.429$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{1773}{14}=126.643$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=126.643-(1.31*21.429)=98.571$

So the line would be given by:

$y=1.31 x +98.57$

(c) Find the sample correlation coefficient r and the coefficient of determination r?2. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

n=14 $\sum x = 300, \sum y = 1773, \sum xy=38186, \sum x^2 =6576, \sum y^2 =225649$

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:

$r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}$

$r=\frac{14(38186)-(300)(1773)}{\sqrt{[14(6576) -(300)^2][14(225649) -(1773)^2]}}=0.9534$

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.47719

What percentage of variation in y is explained by the least-squares model? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by $r^2$ and on this case $0.47719^2 =0.2277$ , so then the % of variation explaines is 22.8%.

(d) If a female baby weighs 21 pounds at 1 year, what do you predict she will weigh at 30 years of age? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) ___ lb

So we can replace in the linear model like this:

$y=1.31 x +98.57=1.31*21 + 98.57 =126.08$

Find the equation of a line that passes through points (1,8) and (4,4).

daser333 [38]

Step-by-step explanation: Using the equation, y = mx + b, the slope-intercept form, plug in the values you have and solve for b. (m is the slope.) You have y = -8 and x = 4 and m = 1/2.

If you pay $43 for a set of Pokémon cards online that were listed for $40 what is the tax percent you were charged

Alex777 [14]

Amount of tax paid = 43-40 = 3

Tax rate = 3/40 = 0.75

0.75 x 100 = 7.5%

Tax rate = 7.5%

Formulate the situation as a system of inequalities. (Let x represent the number of dinghies the company can manufacture and y r

kirill [66]

Answer:

x (smallest to largest) = 0,45 ,55

y (smallest to largest) = 0,10,40

Step-by-step explanation:

(hours) Dinghy Rowboat Labor Available

Metal Work 2 3 120

Painting 2 2 110

Let x represent the number of dinghies the company can manufacture and y represent the number of rowboats.

So, total hours for metal work = $2x+3y$

So, total hours for Painting = $2x+2y$

So, equation becomes:

$2x+3y\leq 120$

$2x+2y\leq 110$

$x\geq 0$

$y\geq 0$

Plot the inequalities

Refer the attached figure

So, the vertices of the feasible region are (0,40),(45,10) and (55,0)

So, x values are 0 , 45 and 55

x represents the number of dinghies

So, x (smallest to largest) = 0,45 ,55

y values are 40,10,0

y represent the number of rowboats.

So, y (smallest to largest) = 0,10,40
