Red bricks : Grey bricks
        5        :            2

Total parts = 5 + 2 = 7

7 parts = 224
-----------------------
Find 1 part:
-----------------------
1 part = 234 ÷ 7
1 part = 32

-----------------------
Find 5 parts:
-----------------------
5 parts = 32 x 5 
5 parts = 160

----------------------------------------------
Answer: 160 Red bricks
----------------------------------------------

The table shows the number of medical clinics and the number of bowling alleys in several cities.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) to create a scatter plot for the data, let data for clinics be x and that one for Bowling alleys be y then plot x values with corresponding y values on a graph tool.

<u>x                     y</u>

14                   12

1                      3

6                     6

5                     7

10                    7

6                      8

11                      9

8                      15

6                       7

16                     12

The scatter plot is attached below

b) a cluster is a group of data that is close together. From the plot, the ordered pairs forming a cluster are;

(6,6), (6,7), (5,7), and (6,8)

c) An outlier is a point in a plot which lies very far from the other values. In this case, point its  point (8,15)

d)The linear regression equation is one written in the form of

Y=a+bX where ;

Y=the dependent variable

X=the explanatory variable

a=the intercept, which is the value of y when x=o

b=slope of the line

The formula to apply here is ;

a=(∑y)(∑x²)-(∑x)(∑xy) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)² where n is number of samples

b= n(∑xy)-(∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

Form a table like below

<u>x                     y               xy               x²                 y²</u>

14                   12              168            196              144

1                      3                 3               1                   9

6                     6                 36            36                 36

5                     7                 35             25                49

10                    7                 70             100              49

6                      8                 48             36              64

11                      9                99             121               81

8                      15               120             64            225

6                       7                42               36              49

16                     12                192            256            144

83                     86              813           871               850------------sum

∑x=83   ∑y=86  ∑xy=813  ∑x²=871  ∑y²=850 and n=10

Applying the formula

a=(∑y)(∑x²)-(∑x)(∑xy) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

a=[(86 * 871) - (83*813) ]/ 10 (871-83²)

a=[74906 - 67479] / 10(-6018)

a=[7427] / -60180

a= - 0.1234

b= n(∑xy)-(∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

b=10(813)-(83*86) / 10 (871)-(83²)

b=[8130-7138] / 8710 -6889

b= 992/1821

b=0.5448

The liner regression equation will be;

Y=a+bX

Y= -0.1234 + 0.5448 X

e) correlation coefficient r is given by;

r= n∑xy - (∑x)(∑y) / √n(∑x²)-(∑x)² × √n(∑y²)-(∑y)²

r=10*813 - (83*86) / √10 *871 -83² ×√10*850 - 86²

r=8130-7138 / √8710-6889 × √8500-7396

r= 992 / (√1821 × √1104)

r=992/ 42.67×33.23

r=992/1417.9

r=0.6996

f) r² is important because it shows you the proportion of the variance of one variable that is predictable from the other variable.

r=0.6996

r²=0.6996² =0.4894

A loan officer makes $15 per hour working 2,000 hours each year. She also gets a fee of $35 for each loan she processes. If she
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

$61,500

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply take her hourly wage and multiply that by the hours she worked and take her additional earnings for each loan processed and multiply that by the number of loans she processed.

Consider her hourly wage of $15 per hour. If she worked 2000 hours, then we can say she got paid ($15 * 2000) = $30000 for her work that year.

Consider her processing fee of $35 per loan processed. If she processed 900 loans, then we can say she got paid ($35 * 900) = $31500 for her processed loans that year.

Then, to find her yearly total earnings, we simply add those two values. $30000 + $31500 = $61500.

Thus the loan officer made $61500 that year.

Cheers.

What is equivalent to 3 to the negative 2nd power
VladimirAG [237]
3 to the negative second power is written like this: 3^{-2}. 

When simplifying an expression with a negative exponent, you take a positive version of the exponent, in this case that would be 2, and apply that to the base. 
After doing that, we have 9. 
The next step is to put one over that number.
In this case, now after doing that the answer is \frac{1}{9}. 

Hope this helps!
