What is a composite number

2 answers:

8 0

A whole number that can be divided evenly by numbers other than 1 or itself. Example: 9 can be divided evenly by 3 (as well as 1 and 9), so 9 is a composite number. But 7 cannot be divided evenly (except by 1 and 7), so is NOT a composite number (it is a prime number).

It's a number that can evenly be divided by numbers other than 1 or itself.
Example: 8. You can multiply the factors 2 and 4 and get 8 other than multiplying 8 and 1.

Given that point A is the midpoint of line segment ED, where E( -1,9) and A(4,5), what is the location of point D?

yuradex [85]

Answer:

D(9, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A being the midpoint means its coordinates satisfy ...

A = (E + D)/2

Solving for D, we find ...

D = 2A -E

= 2(4, 5) -(-1, 9) = (2·4 +1, 2·5 -9)

D = (9, 1)

What is the value of the correlation coefficient r of the data set?

enyata [817]

The correct option will be: C) 0.84

Explanation

Formula for Correlation coefficient :

$r= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{\sqrt{[n\Sigma x^2-(\Sigma x)^2][n\Sigma y^2-(\Sigma y)^2]}}$

First, for each point(x, y), we need to calculate x², y² and xy .

Then, we will find sum all x, y, x², y² and xy, which gives us Σx, Σy, Σx², ∑y² and Σxy

(Please refer to the attached image for the table )

Here we got, ∑x = 44 , ∑y = 183 , ∑x² = 362 , ∑y² = 6575 and ∑xy = 1480

'n' is the total number of data set, which is 7 here.

So, plugging those values into the above formula..........

$r= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{\sqrt{[n\Sigma x^2-(\Sigma x)^2][n\Sigma y^2-(\Sigma y)^2]}}\\ \\ r=\frac{7(1480)-(44)(183)}{\sqrt{[7(362)-(44)^2][7(6575)-(183)^2]}}\\ \\ r=\frac{10360-8052}{\sqrt{(598)(12536)}}\\ \\ r=\frac{2308}{\sqrt{7496528}}\\ \\ r=0.84$
