An efficiency consultant determines that on the assembly line at Stihl Inc., there is a strong, negative, linear relationship be

tween x=the number of consecutive hours a worker has been assembling chainsaws and y=the number of chainsaws he can produce in an hour. He finds that 70%of the variation in chainsaws produced per hour can be explained by the regression of y on x. Which of the following is the best approximation of the correlation of x and y? A)-0.84, B) -0.7, C) -0.49, D) 0.49, E) 0.84

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that there is a strong, negative, linear relationship between x and y. where, x is the number of consecutive hours a worker has been assembling chainsaws and y is the number of chainsaws he can produce in an hour.

He finds that 70%of the variation in chainsaws produced per hour can be explained by the regression of y on x.

y=-\frac{70}{100}x

y=-0.7x

The slope is -0.7, therefore option B is correct.

The formula d = rt gives the distance traveled in time t at rate r. A bicyclist rides at a
Nesterboy [21]

D = rt

We are given the rate r to be 15 mph.

We are given the time (in hours) to be 3.5.

We need to find D.

D = (15)(3.5)

D = 52.5 miles.

If CDE ~ GDF, find ED
qaws [65]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle CDE \sim \triangle GDF.. (given) \\\\\therefore \frac{CD}{GD} =\frac{DE}{DF}.. (csst) \\\\\therefore  \frac{15}{x+3} =\frac{3x+1}{4}\\\\ \therefore   \: 15 \times 4 = (x + 3)(3x + 1) \\  \\ \therefore   \: 60 = 3 {x}^{2}  + x + 9x + 3 \\  \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 10x + 3 - 60 = 0 \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 10x  - 57 = 0 \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 19x - 9x  - 57 = 0 \\ \therefore   \: x(3x + 19) - 3(3x + 19) = 0 \\\therefore   \:  (3x + 19)(x - 3) = 0 \\ \therefore   \: 3x + 19 = 0 \:  \: or \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\  \therefore   \: x =  -  \frac{19}{3}  \:  \: or \:  \: x = 3 \\  \because \: x \: can \: not \: be \:  - ve \\ \therefore   \: x = 3 \\ ED = 3x + 1 = 3 \times 3 + 1  \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ ED= 10}}
