Answer:

14 AND 22

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE LARGER NUMBER BE X AND SMALLER BE Y

X + Y = 36 …….1

2X – Y = 6…… 2

WE SOLVE SIMULTANOUSLY  

ADDING EQATION 2 AND 1

2X + X  + Y + (-Y) = 36 + 6

3X + Y – Y = 42

3X = 42

DIVIDING EACH TERM BY 3

3X/3 = 42/3

X = 14

THEN PUTTING X = 14 IN EQUATION  1

14 + Y = 36

Y = 36 – 14  

Y = 22

In a study relating college grade point average to time spent in various activities, you distribute a survey to several students
Hunter-Best [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

GPA = NO + B1Study + B2work + B3leisure + B4sleep + u

1. No it makes no sense. There is an intercorellation between these explanatory variables. Changing study while holding the rest variables constant or fixed would not make sense. If study us changed then one or more of the other predictors should be changed so that they can still be equal to 168

2. Study is a perfect linear function of work, leisure and sleep. There is the problem of multicollinearity among these independent variables. One assumption of the MLR is no multicollinearity.

3. To reformulate model, you have to drop the variable that is having the issue. Let's say that leisure is dropped from the model. After this the assumption is satisfied.

GPA = b0 + B1Study + b2sleep + b3work + u
