The number of newly reported crime cases in a county in New York State is shown in

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The linear regression equation that represents the set of data is:

$y=1083.48+23.73x$

The predicted number of new cases for 2013 is 1368.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a linear regression is:

$y=a+bx$

Here,

y = dependent variable

x = independent variable

a = intercept

b = slope

Compute the values of a and b as follows:

$\begin{aligned} a &= \frac{\sum{Y} \cdot \sum{X^2} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{XY} }{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2} = \frac{ 6857 \cdot 55 - 15 \cdot 17558}{ 6 \cdot 55 - 15^2} \approx 1083.476 \\ \\b &= \frac{ n \cdot \sum{XY} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{Y}}{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2} = \frac{ 6 \cdot 17558 - 15 \cdot 6857 }{ 6 \cdot 55 - \left( 15 \right)^2} \approx 23.743\end{aligned}$

The linear regression equation that represents the set of data is:

$y=1083.48+23.73x$

Compute the predicted value of the number of new cases for 2013 (i.e. x = 12) as follows:

$y=1083.48+23.73x$

$=1083.48+(23.73\times12)\\\\=1083.48+284.76\\\\=1368.24\\\\\approx 1368$

Thus, the predicted number of new cases for 2013 is 1368.

A construction company is considering submitting bids for contracts of three different projects. The company estimates that it h

julsineya [31]

Answer:

a. $P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}\\$

b. $E(x) = 0.3$

c. $S(x)=0.5196$

d. $E=5,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the company won x bids follows a binomial distribution because we have n identical and independent experiments with a probability p of success and (1-p) of fail.

So, the PMF of X is equal to:

$P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}\\$

Where p is 0.1 and it is the chance of winning. Additionally, n is 3 and it is the number of bids. So the PMF of X is:

$P(x)=\frac{3!}{x!(3-x)!}*0.1^{x}*(1-0.1)^{n-x}\\$

For binomial distribution:

$E(x)=np\\S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Therefore, the company can expect to win 0.3 bids and it is calculated as:

$E(x) = np = 3*0.1 = 0.3$

Additionally, the standard deviation of the number of bids won is:

$S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{3(0.1)(1-0.1)}=0.5196$

Finally, the probability to won 1, 2 or 3 bids is equal to:

$P(1)=\frac{3!}{1!(3-1)!}*0.1^{1}*(1-0.1)^{3-1}=0.243\\P(2)=\frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!}*0.1^{2}*(1-0.1)^{3-2}=0.027\\P(3)=\frac{3!}{3!(3-3)!}*0.1^{3}*(1-0.1)^{3-3}=0.001$

So, the expected profit for the company is equal to:

$E=-10,000+50,000(0.243)+100,000(0.027)+150,000(0.001)\\E=5,000$

Because there is a probability of 0.243 to win one bid and it will produce 50,000 of income, there is a probability of 0.027 to win 2 bids and it will produce 100,000 of income and there is a probability of 0.001 to win 3 bids and it will produce 150,000 of income.

Tanya has a garden with a trench around it. The garden is a rectangle with length 2.5m and width 2m. The trench and the garden t

Drupady [299]

Answer:

5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of trench only is the total area(trench and garden) minus the Area of garden

Area of trench only = total area(trench and garden) - Area of garden

Area = length × breadth

Substituting the given dimensions;

Total area = 3.5 × 3 = 10.5 m^2

Area of garden = 2.5×2 = 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 10.5 m^2 - 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2

How can you tell if 2 functions are inverses of eachother

HACTEHA [7]

Remember, if the two graphs are symmetric with respect to the line y = x (mirror images over y = x ), then they are inverse functions. But, we need a way to check without the graphs, because we won't always know what the graphs look like! then f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions.
