You know that there is a strong correlation between the consumption of ice cream and body weight. The Pearson's r = 0.78. You al

so know that the average consumption of ice cream per week is five grams with a standard deviation of 1.5 grams. The average weight is 65 kg with a standard deviation of 15 kg. What is the formula of the regression line?

Answer:

y = 7.8x + 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Pearson's r = 0.78

Average consumption of ice cream = 5 grams per week (m) with Standard deviation (sd) = 1.5 grams

Average weight = 65 kg with standard deviation of 15kg

Formular for the regression line :

General regression formula :

y = mx + c

y = predicted variable ; m = slope or gradient ; x = predictor variable ; c = intercept

Gradient (m) = change in y / change in x

m = (sd y / sd x) * r

m = (sd weight / sd ice cream) × r

m = (15 / 1.5) × r

m = 10 × 0.78 = 7.8

Intercept:

mean of weight(y) - [Slope×mean of icecream(x)]

65 - [7.8 × 5]

65 - 39 = 26

Hence,

y = 7.8x + 26

An horse gallops 200ft turns and trots 350ft turns again and travels 410ft
bija089 [108]

The area of the triangle formed by his path is 34971.98 ft sq to the nearest hundredth.

<h3>What is the Heron's formula?</h3>

The Heron's formula is given as;

√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

where s is half the perimeter of the triangle

WE have been given that horse gallops 200ft, turns and trots 350ft, turns again and travels 410ft to return to the point he started from.

Perimeter of the triangle is given as = 200 + 350 + 410 = 960 ft

Semi perimeter =  960 ft/ 2 = 480 ft

Area =  √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

Area =  √480 (480 -200)(480 -350)(480 -410)

Area =  √480 (280)(130)(70)

Area =  √480 (2548000)

Area = 34971.98

The area of the triangle formed by his path is 34971.98 ft sq to the nearest hundredth.

Name each pair of angles as corresponding, alternate interior, alternate exterior, or consecutive. Then solve for x.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

These 2 angles are <u>alternate exterior</u> so they're equal to each other.

x + 127 = 125

x = 125 - 127

x = -2
