HELP PLEASE DUE NOW!! Does a line of best fit need to go through at least one point for there to be a correlation Also if a line

can go through the points on a scatter plot is there correlation???
Mathematics

Answer:

For a line of best fit, it doesn't nessesarily have to land on a point, it just has to be in between them or on them whichever way you choose to do it. And also your second question, yes it is correlation if it lines up with the line and not somewhere else or if there are so many dots that they don't really form a line then it isn't a correlation.

Hope this helps!

A sleep time of 15.9 hours per day for a newborn baby is at the 10h percentile of the distribution of sleep times for all newbor
Step2247 [10]

The mean time in hours per day for newborn babies is 16.5 hours ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

A sleep time of 15.9 hours per day for a newborn baby is at the 10th

percentile of the distribution of sleep times for all newborn babies

Assuming the distribution is normal with a standard deviation of

0.5 hour

To find the mean time let us do that

1. Use the normal distribution table to find the corresponding z-score

   for 10th percentile

2. Use the rule μ = x - zσ, where μ is the mean, σ is the standard

    deviation and x is the score

3. Substitute the values of x, σ and z in the rule to find μ

Look to the normal distribution table to find z-score that equivalent

to the area = 10/100 = 0.1 (10th percentile)

∵ z-score = -1.28

∵ σ = 0.5 hour

∵ x = 15.9

∵ μ = x - zσ

- Substitute the values in the rule

∴ μ = 15.9 - (-1.28)(0.5)

∴ μ = 15.9 + 0.64

∴ μ = 16.54 ≅ 16.5 hours

The mean time in hours per day for newborn babies is 16.5 hours

A map has a scale of 1m represents 2 km. write this scale as a ratio in its simplest form
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find yourself a map. Then, using two points, find both the distance on the map and the true distance. Next, you divide the true distance by the measured map distance, and find your scale. Last, you need to place that ratio onto your map.

The chairs in the auditorium illustrates an arithmetic sequence

  • The recursive rule is:  an = an-1 + 8; a1 = 26
  • The explicit rule is:  an = 18 + 8n
  • There are 74 seats in the 7th row
  • 840 chairs can fit the auditorium

<h3>The recursive rule</h3>

From the question, we have the following sequence:

Seats: 18, 26, 34

Rewrite as:

26 = 18 + 8

34 = 26 + 8

The above means that:

The number of seats on a row is 8 added to the the number of seats on the previous row.

Hence, the recursive rule is:

an = an-1 + 8; a1 = 26

<h3>The explicit rule</h3>

In (a), we have:

a1 = 26 and d = 8

The explicit rule is calculated using:

an = a1 + (n -1) * d

This gives

an = 26 + (n - 1) * 8

Expand

an = 26 - 8 + 8n

Evaluate the difference

an = 18 + 8n

Hence, the explicit rule is:

an = 18 + 8n

<h3>The number of seats in the row 7</h3>

This means that n = 7.

So, we  have:

a7 = 18 + 8 * 7 = 74

Hence, there are 74 seats in the 7th row

<h3>The sigma notation</h3>

We have the maximum number of rows to be 12.

So, the sigma notation would be:

\sum\limits^{12}_{n=1} {18 + 8n}

The total number of seats is:

Sn = n/2(2a + (n -1) * d)

This gives

S12 = 12/2(2 * 26 + (12 -1) * 8)

S12 = 840

Hence, 840 chairs can fit the auditorium

Let f(x) = 8x3 − 28x + 61 and g(x) = 2x + 5. Find f of x over g of x.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

4x^2-10x+11+\frac{6}{2x+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are:

f(x)=8x^3-28x+61 and g(x)=2x+5

By algebraic properties of functions;

\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{8x^3-28x+61}{2x+5}

We perform the long division of the two polynomials as shown in the attachment.

Therefore:

\frac{8x^3-28x+61}{2x+5}=4x^2-10x+11+\frac{6}{2x+5}

The last choice is correct

Bond [772]

Answer:

568

Explanation:

First you need to make an equation. You need to find the change, in this case it’s 1.25. After, you find that, you make your equation. A(n)=16(1.25)^n-1.
