The slope indicates that the percent is falling at about 0.4% each year. The y-intercept indicates the percent in 1985 should have been about 19%. The slope indicates tha the percent has remained the same for each year. The y-intercept indicates the percent in 1985 should have been 22%. d.

Answer:

B.The slope indicates that the percent is falling at about 0.4% each year. The y-intercept indicates the percent in 1985 should have been about 19%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regression equation is it this form:

Y' = b0 + b1X

I am going to identify the slope and intercept in this equation to help us go further in our solution.

b1X is the slope. The slope usually has an x value multiplied to it

b0 is the intercept.

Back to our question, the equation in this question is

Y = -0.42X + 19.26

The slope is -0.42X.

The y intercept is 19.26

<em><u>The slope has a negative sign, this shows us that the percentage is falling by about 0.4% every year while an intercept of 19.26 tells us that percentage in 1985 should have been about 19%.</u></em>

I hope you found my solution useful?

Different shapes are drawn on cards and then the cards are placed in a bag. The number of cards for each shape is shown in the t
Anvisha [2.4K]
We can first add up the cards so we know how many we have in all:
16 + 16 + 18 = 50 cards

We can do this a little bit easier if we get the "16"-cards in one number total.

16 + 16 = 32

\frac{32}{50} = 32 x 2 = \frac{64}{100}
                                         50 x 2 

\frac{64}{100} = 64 : 2 = 32 %
                                            100
We did just divide the % of two types cards on 2, so we get the %-chance of 1 type card.

I am not quite sure, but I think that 32 % is the correct answer.

If a thermometer indicates 40 degrees Celsius, what's the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit? A. 22°F B. 72°F C. 54°F D. 104°F
Elena L [17]
F = 9/5C + 32

F = 9/5(40) + 32
F = 72 + 32
F = 105

40°C is ~105°F,  and the closest would be D.

Six hundred paving stones were examined for cracks, and 20 were found to be cracked. The same 600 stones were then examined for
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

a) probability that is cracked=1/30 (3.33%)

b) probability that is discoloured = 29/600 (4.83%)

c) probability that is cracked and discoloured =  11/600 (1.83%)

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that each stone is equally likely to be chosen then defining the events C= the stone is cracked , D= the stone is discoloured , N= the stone is neither cracked or discoloured, then

P(C)= number of favourable outcomes/total number of outcomes = 20 stones/600 stones = 1/30 (3.33%)

P(D)= number of favourable outcomes/total number of outcomes = 29 stones/600 stones = 29/600 (4.83%)

the probability that is discoloured and cracked is P(C∩D) , where

P(C∪D)=P(C) + P(D)-P(C∩D)

and

P(C∪D)= 1- P(N)

thus

1- P(N)=P(C) + P(D)-P(C∩D)

P(C∩D)= P(N)+P(C)+P(D) -1

replacing values

P(C∩D)= P(N)+P(C)+P(D)=562/600 + 20/600 + 29/600 -1= 611/600 -1 = 11/600

thus

P(C∩D)=  11/600 (1.83%)
