Automobile racing, high-performance driving schools, and driver education programs run by automobile clubs continue to grow in p

opularity. All these activities require the participant to wear a helmet that is certified by the Snell Memorial Foundation, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to research, education, testing, and development of helmet safety standards. Snell "SA" (Sports Application)-rated professional helmets are designed for auto racing and provide extreme impact resistance and high fire protection. One of the key factors in selecting a helmet is weight, since lower weight helmets tend to place less stress on the neck. The following data show the weight and price for 18 SA helmets.

a. Develop a scatter diagram with weight as the independent variable.

b. Does there appear to be any relationship between these two variables?

There appears to be a - Select your answer -negativepositiveItem 2 linear relationship between the two variables. The heavier helmets tend to be less expensive.

c. Develop the estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the price given the weight.

The regression equation is (to 1 decimal and enter negative values as negative numbers). If your answer is zero enter "0".

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Given the variables

X₁: Weight of a safety helmet for racers

X₂: Price of a safety helmet for racers

Note, there is n= 17 observed values for each variable so for all calculations I'll use this number and disregard the 18 mentioned in the text.

a) Scatterplot in attachment.

b) If you look at the diagram it seems that there is a negative linear regression between the price and the weight of the helmets, meaning, the higher the helmet weights, the less it costs.

c) The estimated regression equation is ^Yi= a + bXi

n= 17; ∑Y= 6466; ∑Y²= 3063392; ∑X= 1008; ∑X²= 60294; ∑XY= 367536

Y[bar]= 380.35; X[bar]= 59.29

b= \frac{sumXY-\frac{(sumX)(sumY)}{n} }{sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} } = \frac{367536-\frac{1008*6466}{17} }{60294-\frac{(1008)^2}{17} } = -30.18

a= Y[bar]- bX[bar]= 380.35-(-30.18)*59.29= 2169.77

The estimated regression equation for the price of the helmets as a function of their weight is:

^Yi= 2169.77 -30.18Xi

I hope it helps!

1. Use the image of the circle to identify the length of the radius, diameter, and circumference. Leave all answers in terms of
Grace [21]

Answer:

Radius =  r = 7.5

Diameter = d = 15

Circumference = C = 15π

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the image of a circle with a straight line passing through the center of the circle and touching its edges. Such a line is known as the diameter of the circle. From the image we can see the length of the diameter of the circle is d = 15 units.

Radius is define as half of the diameter. Since the diameter is 15 units, the radius of the given circle will be half of 15 which is r = 7.5 units.

Circumference of the circle = C = 2πr

Using the value of radius(r), we can write the circumference as:

C = 2π(7.5) = 15π

3.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Blake can do work in hours = 9

Blake can do a part of work in 1 hour = 1/9

Ned can paint the same room in six hours.

Ned can do a part of work in 1 hour = 1/6

They can do a part of work together in 1 hour =  1/9+1/6

                                                                          = 5/18  

Now they can do 5/18}  part of work in hour = 1

So, they can do whole work in hours =  1/5/18

                                                            =  3.6

Hence it will take 3.6 hours to paint the room if they work together.
