<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The least squares regression equation using the school year (in number of years after 2000) for the input variable and the average cost (in thousands of dollars) for the output variable is "y=0.937x+12.765" .</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

The independent variable / input variable= x = Number of years after 2000 ( = year-2000)

The dependent variable / output variable = y = Average cost in thousands of dollars

(The table has been attached herewith.)

To find the regression equation for a group of (x,y) points,

We have to calculate the slope and y-intercept, then we can put those values in the equation y = mx + c ( Slope - Intercept formula)

We know that,

Slope=m=\frac{N\sum xy -\sum x\sum y}{N\sum x^{2}- (\sum x)^{2}}

Putting the values from the table,

m=\frac{(8 \times 1020.206)-(52 \times 150.894)}{(8 \times 3810)-(52^2)}

( ∵ Instead of 150,894 we have to put 150.894 as we have find the line for year and thousands of dollars )

\Rightarrow m =\frac{8161.648-7846.488}{3040-2704} =\frac{315.16}{336}=0.937

Now, for the y-intercept,

c =\frac{\sum y -m(\sum x)}{N}

Putting the values,

c=\frac{150.894-(52 \times 0.937)}{8}=\frac{102.125}{8}=12.765

Now, putting the values of c and m, in the Slope-Intercept formula,

y=0.937x+12.765

According to a study, an average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. Assume that the number of report
lions [1.4K]

Answer:0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

An average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. This means our mean value, u = 6

For poisson distribution,

P(x=r) = (e^-u×u^r)/r!

probability that four cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow=

P(x=4)= (e^-6×6^4)/4!

= (0.00248×1296)/4×3×2×1

= 3.21408/24=

0.13392

P(x=5)= (e^-6×6^5)/5!

= (0.00248×7776)/5×4×3×2×1

= 19.28448/120

= 0.1607

probability that four or five cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow

= P(x=4) + P(x=5)

= 0.13392 + 0.1607

= 0.294624

Approximately 0.29

Solve the equation for y. Show your work. 6x−2y=4
borishaifa [10]
Answer:
y = 3x - 2
General Formulas and Concepts:
Properties of Equality
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Step 1: Define equation
6x - 2y = 4

Step 2: Solve for y
1. Subtract 6x on both sides: -2y = 4 - 6x
2. Divide both sides by -2: y = -2 + 3x
3. Rewrite: y = 3x - 2

Estimate the sum of 196 + 482
pshichka [43]
The estimated sum of 196 and 482 is 700.

We do estimates when we do mental calculation. We relate the number to the nearest number that can easily be computed mentally.

196 is near 200 so we round it up to 200
482 is near 500 so we round it up to 500

Thus, 200 + 500 = 700.

700 is the estimated sum.
