Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

£191.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 4 = 5 parts

Divide 320 by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

320 ÷ 5 = 64 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus

4 parts = 4 × 64 = 256

Thus he bought 64 first class and 256 second class.

Cost = (64 × £0.67) + (256 × £0.58)

        = £42.88 + 148.48

        = £191.36

An introductory psychology class has 9 freshman males, 15 freshman females, 8 sophomore males, and 12 sophomore females. A rando
hjlf

Answer:

The probability is \frac{16}{43}

Step-by-step explanation:

The psychology class has 9 freshman male, 15 freshman females, 8 sophomore male and 12 sophomore female.

Total population constitution of the class=

17 males and 27 females and 44 students in total.

If on selecting on the first attempt, a male has been picked up then the number of males for the picking up in the second attempt has to decrease by one.

Also, the total number of students from which it has to be selected also decreases by 1, because one child has already been selected.

Therefore for Second Attempt, Total 43 students and 16 males.

Probability=\frac{No.OfFavorableOutcomes}{TotalNo.OfOutcomes}

Probability=\frac{16}{43}

In a study relating the degree of warping, in mm, of a copper plate (y) to temperature in °C (x), the following summary statisti
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

a)

y = 0.3035 + 0.0082x

b)

0.6315 mm

c)

x = 23.9634 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Compute the least-squares line for predicting warping from temperature. Round the answers to four decimal places.

We need to find an equation of the form

y = b + mx

where m is the slope and b the Y-intercept.

The slope m can be computed with the formula

\bf m=\displaystyle\frac{\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\bar x)(y_i-\bar y)}{\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\bar x)^2}

Replacing the values in our formula (we will round at the end of the calculations)

\bf m=\displaystyle\frac{806.94}{98,775}=0.008169476

the Y-intercept b is computed with the formula

\bf b=\bar y-m\bar x

therefore we have

\bf b=0.5188-0.008169476*26.36=0.303452613

and the least-squares line rounded to 4 decimals would be

y = 0.3035 + 0.0082x

b. Predict the warping at a temperature of 40°C. Round the answer to three decimal places.

We simply replace x with 40 to get

y = 0.3035 + 0.0082*40 = 0.6315 mm

c. At what temperature will we predict the warping to be 0.5 mm? Round the answer to two decimal places

Here, we replace y with 0.5 and solve for x

0.5 = 0.3035 + 0.0082x ===> x = (0.5-0.3035)/0.0082 ===>

 

x = 23.9634 °C
