Answer: it will take 5 people 6.4 hours to do the work.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. Let h represent the number of hours required to do the job. Let p represent the number of people working. Therefore,

h is inversely proportional to p

Introducing a constant of variation, k, it means that

h = k/p

It takes 8 hours for 4 people to paint the inside of a house. Therefore

8 = k/4

k = 8×4 = 32

The formula becomes

h = 32/p

To determine how many hours it will take 5 people to do the work, we will substitute p = 5 into the formula. It becomes

h = 32/5 = 6.4 hours

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a study of the stability of IQ scores, a large group of individuals is tested once at age 18 and again at age 35.

Age 18: average score = 100, SD = 15

Age 35: average score = 100, SD = 15, r = 0.80

Let us obtain regression equation of y on x.

Let y be the scores at age 35 and x at age 18

Slope = r(s_y/s_x) = 0.8(\frac{15}{15} )=0.80

The line passes through (100,100) being average of x and y

Hence regression line would be

y-100=0.8(x-100)\\y = 0.8x+20

a) Here given that x =115

Hence y=0.80(115)+20\\=112

the average score at age 35 for all the individuals who scored 115 at age 18, would be 112.

b) Prediction also would be the same 112.
