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!

Jack spent $40 on new shoes then he spent half of what he had left on clothes finally he gave five dollars to his brother now he
aleksandrvk [35]
This is a working backwards problem.  You know he has $35 at the end.  Before he gave his brother $5, he would have $40, which is half of what he had before he bought the clothes, so he would have had $80.  Before he spent the $40 on shoes, he would have had $120, so the answer is $120.

Substitution for:<br> X-5y=10<br> 2x-10y=20
sergey [27]
Since you need an isolated variable to use the substitution method, we need to re-arrange one of the equations. This will probably be easiest to do with the first one.
Add 5y to both sides of the first equation.
x=10+5y
Now, in the second equation, put in 10+5y in any spot that has an x.
2(10+5y)-10y=20
Distribute the 2 to both numbers in the parenthesis.
20+10y-10y=20
Combine like terms.
20=20
This means that the two equations are actually the same. You can see this if you multiply the whole first equation by 2
2(x-5y=10)
2x-10y=20, which is the same as the second equation. Therefore, the two equations are actually the same one.
