a_1=1;\ a_2=-6;\ a_3=36;\ ...\\\\r=a_2:a_1\to r=-6:1=-6\\\\S_n=\dfrac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\a_1=1;\ r=-6;\ n=6\\\\subtitute\\\\S_6=\dfrac{1(1-(-6)^6)}{1-(-6)}=\dfrac{1-46656}{1+6}=\dfrac{46655}{7}=6665

The sycamore grove contains 30 sycamo
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

40 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of trees be x.

75% of all the sycamore trees in the park are 30 trees.

So,75%of x=30

or,(75/100)*x=30

or,x=(30*100)/75

or,x=40 [ANS]

Write a third-degree polynomial function whose zeros are 1, −3, and 4.
WARRIOR [948]
Recall that zeroes can be transformed into factors by subtracting them from x. This gives us the following factors:

(x - 1)(x + 3)(x - 4)

Now, if you multiply the first two factors together, you get the following:

(x² + 2x - 3)

Multiply that by the last factor, (x - 4), and you get this:

(x³ + 2x² - 3x - 4x² - 8x + 12)

This can be simplified:

(x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)

And there's your final answer. Hope this helped!

The table shows the number of medical clinics and the number of bowling alleys in several cities.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) to create a scatter plot for the data, let data for clinics be x and that one for Bowling alleys be y then plot x values with corresponding y values on a graph tool.

<u>x                     y</u>

14                   12

1                      3

6                     6

5                     7

10                    7

6                      8

11                      9

8                      15

6                       7

16                     12

The scatter plot is attached below

b) a cluster is a group of data that is close together. From the plot, the ordered pairs forming a cluster are;

(6,6), (6,7), (5,7), and (6,8)

c) An outlier is a point in a plot which lies very far from the other values. In this case, point its  point (8,15)

d)The linear regression equation is one written in the form of

Y=a+bX where ;

Y=the dependent variable

X=the explanatory variable

a=the intercept, which is the value of y when x=o

b=slope of the line

The formula to apply here is ;

a=(∑y)(∑x²)-(∑x)(∑xy) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)² where n is number of samples

b= n(∑xy)-(∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

Form a table like below

<u>x                     y               xy               x²                 y²</u>

14                   12              168            196              144

1                      3                 3               1                   9

6                     6                 36            36                 36

5                     7                 35             25                49

10                    7                 70             100              49

6                      8                 48             36              64

11                      9                99             121               81

8                      15               120             64            225

6                       7                42               36              49

16                     12                192            256            144

83                     86              813           871               850------------sum

∑x=83   ∑y=86  ∑xy=813  ∑x²=871  ∑y²=850 and n=10

Applying the formula

a=(∑y)(∑x²)-(∑x)(∑xy) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

a=[(86 * 871) - (83*813) ]/ 10 (871-83²)

a=[74906 - 67479] / 10(-6018)

a=[7427] / -60180

a= - 0.1234

b= n(∑xy)-(∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²)-(∑x)²

b=10(813)-(83*86) / 10 (871)-(83²)

b=[8130-7138] / 8710 -6889

b= 992/1821

b=0.5448

The liner regression equation will be;

Y=a+bX

Y= -0.1234 + 0.5448 X

e) correlation coefficient r is given by;

r= n∑xy - (∑x)(∑y) / √n(∑x²)-(∑x)² × √n(∑y²)-(∑y)²

r=10*813 - (83*86) / √10 *871 -83² ×√10*850 - 86²

r=8130-7138 / √8710-6889 × √8500-7396

r= 992 / (√1821 × √1104)

r=992/ 42.67×33.23

r=992/1417.9

r=0.6996

f) r² is important because it shows you the proportion of the variance of one variable that is predictable from the other variable.

r=0.6996

r²=0.6996² =0.4894
