a*2 + b = 26;
a*(-4) + b = -16;
then, a*6 = 42 => a = 7 => b = 26 -14 => b = 12;
from table, 7*9 + 12 = 63 + 12 = 75, correct;
7*(-8) + 12 = -56 + 12 = -44, correct;
slope = ( -44 + 16) / ( -8 + 4) = ( - 28) / (-4) = 7 = a;
Answer: Choice E)
The amount of calories in fruit juice increases by 2.5 for every one gram of sugar. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 57 if there are zero grams of sugar.
=============================================================
Explanation:
x = amount of sugar (in grams)
y = number of calories in the juice
ŷ = estimate of y, so its the estimate of calories in the juice
The regression equation rearranges to ŷ = 2.5x + 57
This is in the form y = mx+b where m = 2.5 is the slope and b = 57 is the y intercept.
The slope tells us what the rate of change is. Specifically, it tells us how much the amount of calories (y) is going up each time the amount of sugar (x) goes up. Each time x goes up by 1, y goes up by 2.5
The y intercept 57 is the starting or initial amount of calories. If you have 0 grams of sugar, the lowest amount of sugar possible, then you start off with 57 calories. We can see this by plugging x = 0 into ŷ = 2.5x + 57 (you should get ŷ = 57). Visually, the y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis.
All of these facts point to choice E as the final answer.
How far does a wheel move when it rotates once? The length of the outside of the tyre? Isn't that the same as the circumference?
Answer:
option A is correct
hope it helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Standard Deviation Rule states that for a normal distribution, nearly all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean. It states that
68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean.
95% fall within two standard deviations.
99.7% fall within three standard deviations.
Therefore, looking at the options, the true statement id
A) For a normal distribution, 99.7% of the distribution is within 3 standard deviations.
