1 answer:

3 0

To convert a number into an improper fraction you take the whole number, multiply it by the denominator, and add it to the numerator
3×2=6
6+1=7
the answer is 7/2

One endpoint of a line segment is (–6, 4), and the midpoint of the segment is (–2, 7). What are the coordinates of the other end

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A. (2, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a coordinates plane then

coordinates of the midpoint is given by (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2

__________________________________________________

Given

one endpoint is (–6, 4) and midpoint is (–2, 7)

let coordinates of other endpoint be (x,y)

now if one endpoint is (–6, 4) and other endpoint is (x,y)

then coordinates of midpoint is ((-6+x)/2 , (4+y)/2)

while the coordinates of midpoint given is (–2, 7)

thus (–2, 7) should be equal to ((-6+x)/2 , (4+y)/2)

-2 = (-6+x)/2 and 7 = (4+y)/2

=> -2*2 = -6+x => 7*2 = 4+y

=> -4 = -6+x => 14 = 4+y

=> -4+6 = x => 14-4 = y

=> x = 2 => 10 = y

Thus, coordinates of the other endpoint is(2,10)

Some types of algae have the potential to cause damage to river ecosystems. Suppose the accompanying data on algae colony densit

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:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

1) Which linear equation BEST represents the line of best fit for the scatterplot? A) y = x B) y = 3x C) y = -3x D) y = 5x + 1 2

Tresset [83]

Answer:

1) A. y = x + 2

Once a line of best fit has been placed upon a scatter graph it is straightforward to find the equation. The general equation of a straight line is: y = mx + c Where m is the slope (gradient) of the line and c is the y-intercept.

4) d. strong positive correlation.

The slope of the line is positive. Most points lie close to the line.

(I am not sure if this is correct or not, I am so sorry)
