What is 5/7*w=40 1/2

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

56 7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 40 1/2 to a fraction 40 1/2 = 81/2

multiply both sides by 7/5

this gets w by itself on the left

81/2 x 7/5 = 567/10 = 56 7/10

Suppose you sequentially add 10 drops of water to a graduated cylinder and read the volume add 10 more drops read and so on. how

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

It depends on what is being referred to by "this."

The description of the activity is that 10 drops are added twice and two readings are taken. If you do *that* 4 times, then a total of 20*4 = 80 drops will have been added.

If the activity referred to by "this" is the pair of acts {add 10 drops, read the volume}, then four repetitions will have added 10*4 = 40 drops.

Probably the expected interpretation is that "this" is {add 10 drops, read}, so 40 drops is likely the expected answer.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the table 1 attached (See Table 1 attached)

We can perform all the calculations to express both, y as a function of x or x as a function of y.

Let's make first the line relating y as a function of x.

y as a function of x

(y=response variable, x=explanatory variable)

$\bf y=m_{yx}x+b_{yx}$

where

$\bf m_{yx}$ is the slope of the line

$\bf b_{yx}$ is the y-intercept

In this case we use these formulas:

$\bf m_{yx}=\frac{(\sum y)(\sum x)^2-(\sum x)(\sum xy)}{n\sum x^2-(\sum x)^2}$

$\bf b_{yx}=\frac{n\sum xy-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}$

n = 10 is the number of observations taken (pairs x,y)

Note: Be careful not to confuse

$\bf \sum x^2$ with $\bf (\sum x)^2$

Performing our calculations we get:

$\bf m_{yx}=\frac{(83)(95)^2-(95)(923)}{10*1277-(95)^2}=176.6061$

$\bf b_{yx}=\frac{10*923-(95)(83)}{10(1277)-(95)^2}=0.3591$

So the equation of the line that relates y as a function of x is

In order to compute the standard error $\bf S_{yx}$ , we must use Table 2 (See Table 2 attached) and use the definition

$\bf s_{yx}=\sqrt{\frac{(y-y_{est})^2}{n}}$

and we have that standard error when y is a function of x is

$\bf s_{yx}=\sqrt{\frac{39515985}{10}}=1987.8628$

Now, to find the line that relates x as a function of y, we simply switch the roles of x and y in the formulas.

So now we have:

x as a function of y

(x=response variable, y=explanatory variable)

$\bf x=m_{xy}y+b_{xy}$

where

$\bf m_{xy}$ is the slope of the line

$\bf b_{xy}$ is the x-intercept

In this case we use these formulas:

$\bf m_{xy}=\frac{(\sum x)(\sum y)^2-(\sum y)(\sum xy)}{n\sum y^2-(\sum y)^2}$

$\bf b_{xy}=\frac{n\sum xy-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{n(\sum y^2)-(\sum y)^2}$

n = 10 is the number of observations taken (pairs x,y)

Note: Be careful not to confuse

$\bf \sum y^2$ with $\bf (\sum y)^2$

Remark: If you wanted to draw this line in the classical style (the independent variable on the horizontal axis), you would have to swap the axis X and Y)

Computing our values, we get

$\bf m_{xy}=\frac{(95)(83)^2-(83)(923)}{10*743-(83)^2}=1068.1072$

$\bf b_{xy}=\frac{10*923-(95)(83)}{10(743)-(83)^2}=2.4861$

and the line that relates x as a function of y is

To find the standard error $\bf S_{xy}$ we use Table 3 (See Table 3 attached) and the formula

$\bf s_{xy}=\sqrt{\frac{(x-x_{est})^2}{n}}$

and we have that standard error when y is a function of x is

$\bf s_{xy}=\sqrt{\frac{846507757}{10}}=9200.5856$

In both cases the correlation coefficient r is the same and it can be computed with the formula:

$\bf r=\frac{\sum xy}{\sqrt{(\sum x^2)(\sum y^2)}}$

Remark: This formula for r is only true if we assume the correlation is linear. The formula does not hold for other kind of correlations like parabolic, exponential,..., etc.

Computing the correlation coefficient :

$\bf r=\frac{923}{\sqrt{(1277)(743)}}=0.9478$

If R= {(1,2), (3,4), (5,6), (8,9)} find the domain and range of R a. Find value of X and Y.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Domain = (1,3,5,8) and Range = (2, 4, 6, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain are sets of input values

Range are set of output values that have a corresponding values in the domain

From (domain, range)

Therefore, the domain are: (1,3,5,8)

Range are: (2,4,6,9
