Answer:

a) May be used to predict a value of y if the corresponding x value is given

Step-by-step explanation:

In regression analysis, the vertical distance from the regression line to the data points can be minimized using the least square regression line.

Given the example of a least square regression equation:

y = ax + b

Where

a = slope

b = Y-intercept

If the value of x is known, the value of y may be predicted.

Option A is correct.

A least squares regression line may be used to predict a value of y if the corresponding x value is given

In a sample of 70 stores of a certain​ company, 62 violated a scanner accuracy standard. It has been demonstrated that the condi

Answer:

We need at least 243 stores.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error of the interval is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

For this problem, we have that:

n = 70, p = \frac{62}{70} = 0.886

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Determine the number of stores that must be sampled in order to estimate the true proportion to within 0.04 with 95​% confidence using the​ large-sample method.

We need at least n stores.

n is found when M = 0.04. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.886*0.114}}{n}}

0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.886*0.114}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.886*0.114}}{0.04}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.886*0.114}}{0.04})^{2}

n = 242.5

Rounding up

We need at least 243 stores.

KonstantinChe [14]

The time taken by the first and the second train is 1 hour 40 minutes and 1 hour 25 minutes. Then the time when the second train at Niles junction is 5:55 p.m.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.

We know that the speed formula

\rm Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

A train leaves Thorn junction at 1:25 p.m. and arrives in Niles at 3:05 p.m. the train makes two stops along the route for a total of 15 minutes.

A second train leaves Thorn junction at 4:30 p.m. and heads to Niles.

This train does not make any stops.

Let the speed of both trains be equal.

Then the time taken by the first train will be

t₁ = 3:05 p.m. - 1:25 p.m.

t₁ = 1 hour 40 minutes

Then the time taken by the second train will be

t₂ = 1:40 - 00:15

t₂ = 1:25 = 1 hour 25 minutes

The time when the second train is at Niles junction will be

→ 4:30 p.m. + 1:25

→ 5:55 p.m.

More about the speed link is given below.
