Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 as a percent is 20%

The 1 in 1/5 is equal to 10.

The 5 in 1/5 is equal to 50.

Therefore you would multiply 50 x 2 to get 100.

Then, you would multiply 10 x 2 to get 20/100 or 20%

What the divided sign is, is basically just a division sign. So, to get the decimal, you do 1÷5 .
This makes you get 0.2 . Now, you need a percentage.
A percentage is a number over 100 .
To get 5 to 100 , you multiply it by 20 , and do the same for 1 , leaving you with 20100 .
So, your percentage is 20% .

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 50, 55, 50, 79, 44, 37, 70, 45, 49

y: 152, 48, 22, 35, 43, 171, 13, 185, 25

a) Compute the equation of the least-squares regression line. (Round your numerical values to five decimal places.)For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

So we can find the sums like this:

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =50+ 55+ 50+ 79+ 44+ 37+ 70+ 45+ 49=479$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =152+ 48+ 22+ 35+ 43+ 171+ 13+ 185+ 25=694$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =50^2 + 55^2 + 50^2 + 79^2 + 44^2 + 37^2 + 70^2 + 45^2 + 49^2=26897$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =152^2 + 48^2 + 22^2 + 35^2 + 43^2 + 171^2 + 13^2 + 185^2 + 25^2=93226$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =50*152+ 55*48+ 50*22+ 79*35+ 44*43+ 37*171+ 70*13+ 45*185+ 49*25=32784$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=26897-\frac{479^2}{9}=1403.556$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=32784-\frac{479*694}{9}=-4152.22$

And the slope would be:

$m=-\frac{-4152.222}{1403.556}=-2.95836$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{479}{9}=53.222$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{694}{9}=77.111$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=77.1111111-(-2.95836*53.22222222)=234.56159$

So the line would be given by:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

A 3

Andrew [12]

Answer:

There are (63) combinations. The notation means "six choose three". Out of six items (flavors) choose three.

(nk)=n!k!(n−k)!.

(63)=6!3!3!.

Think of it this way. There are 6 ways to choose a flavor. Once you choose, there are 5 ways to choose the next. After that, there are 4 flavors left. which is 6!/3!=6⋅5⋅4⋅3⋅2⋅13⋅2⋅1=6⋅5⋅4=120.

But, you could have chosen {chocolate,vanilla,strawberry} and you get the same combination as {vanilla, strawberry, chocolate} so we have to divide by 3!=3⋅2⋅1=6 to account for the order of choosing.

So the number of combinations of flavors is (63)=1206=20.

Write an equation of the line that passes through (−1,3) and is parallel to the line y=2x+2.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The equation of the line that passes through (−1,3) and is parallel to the line y = 2x + 2 in slope intercept form is y = 2x + 5

<h3><u>Solution</u>:</h3>

Given that line passes through (-1, 3) and parallel to line y = 2x + 2

We have to find the equation of the line

Let us first find the slope of the line

<em><u>The slope intercept form of line is given as:</u></em>

y = mx + c ---- eqn 1

where "m" is the slope of the line and "c" is the y-intercept

Comparing the given line equation y = 2x + 2 with y = mx + c,

We get slope "m" = 2

The slope of parallel lines are equal

Hence slope of the line which is parallel to y = 2x + 2 is also 2

Now let us find the equation of line with slope "m" = 2 and passes through point (-1, 3)

Substitute (x, y) = (-1, 3) in eqn 1 to find value of "c"

3 = 2(-1) + c

3 = -2 + c

c = 5

Now substitute "c" = 5 and m = 2 in eqn 1 to get equation of required line

y = 2x + 5

Thus the equation of line in slope intercept form is y = 2x + 5

If, in 7 years, Susan will be 2 times as old as she was 3 years ago, what is Susan’s present age? PLEAZE EXPLAIN HOW AND DO IT W

belka [17]

Let Susan's present age be x

Now, after 7 years ( her age will become 7 +x then) she'll be 2 as old she was 3 years ago.

Her age 3 years ago must be x-3

Now according to question,

twice Her age 3 years ago = her age after 7 years

now,

2(x-3) = 7+x
2x-6 = 7+x
2x-x =7+6
x = 13
x = 13

Therefore, her age presenr age is 13 years.
