Answer:

<em>" Expected Payoff " ⇒ $ 1.56 ; Type in 1.56</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the steps below;

$Tickets That Can Be Entered - 1 Ticket,\\Total Tickets Entered - 1000 Tickets,\\\\Proportion - 1 / 1000,\\Money One ( First Ticket ) = 820 Dollars,\\Money One ( Second Ticket ) = 740 Dollars,\\\\Proportionality ( First ) - 1 / 1000 = x / 820,\\Proportionality ( Second ) - 1 / 1000 = x / 740\\\\1 / 1000 = x / 820,\\1000 * x = 820,\\x = 820 / 1000,\\x = 0.82,\\\\1 / 1000 = x / 740,\\1000 * x = 740,\\x = 740 / 1000,\\x = 0.74\\\\Conclusion ; " Expected Payoff " = 0.82 + 0.74 = 1.56$

<em>Solution; " Expected Payoff " ⇒ $ 1.56</em>

Answer:

d= 4 $\sqrt{2}$ or 5.66

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2,7) and (2,3)

d = $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2} + (y2-y1)^{2} }$

d= $\sqrt{(2-(-2))^{2} + (3-7)^{2} }$

d = $\sqrt{16 + 16}$

d= 4 $\sqrt{2}$ or 5.66

Will mark you as brainliest. If your good with polynomials.

kobusy [5.1K]

To solve/simplify this all you have to do is group like terms (the x^2's with each other, the x's with each other, and the normal numbers, -8)

14x^2-8+5x-6x^2+2x

group the x^2 (add 14x^2 to -6x^2)

8x^2-8+5x+2x

group the x's together (add 5x and 2x together)

8x^2+7x-8

Your answer will be d) 8x^2+7x-8

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immedia

Hatshy [7]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immediately after giving the most recent test, he surveyed each of the 24 students in his class and asked them how many hours of TV they watched that week. He then matched each student's test grade with his or her survey response. After compiling the data, he used hours of TV watched to predict each student's test score. He found the least-squares regression line to be y" = -1.5x + 85.

He also calculated that the value of r, the correlation, was -0.61.

what is the correct value of the coefficient of determination R² and give a correct interpretation of its meaning

Answer:

Interpretation of coefficient of determination R² = 0.3721

R² = 0.3721, meaning 37.21% of the total variation in test scores can be explained by the least square regression line

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the least square regression line is;

y" = -1.5x + 85

the correlation coefficient r = -0.61

Now, the coefficient of determination R² is square of correlation coefficient r

R² = -61²

R² = 0.3721

Can someone please show me the steps in finding the answers to these two problems ?

ratelena [41]

Answer:

y = 8^(x-1)
x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is always to look at the question to see what you are given and what you are asked for. The next step is to identify the relevant relations between what you have and what you need to find.

1) You are given a sequence of (x, y) points where x increases by 1 from one point to the next, and y increases by a factor of 8. This tells you the value of y form a geometric sequence that is described by an exponential function.

The general form of the n-th term of a geometric sequence is ...

an = a1·r^(n-1)

where a1 is the value for n=1, and r is the common ratio.

If this were a geometric sequence, we could write the general term using a1=1 and r=8:

an = 1·8^(n-1)

Instead, this is a relation between x and y. It is the same relation as for the geometric sequence, but with different variable names. We have y instead of an, and we have x instead of n. So, the equation is ...

y = 8^(x -1) . . . . . . . or . . y = (1/8)8^x

2) This equation is of the form ...

k·∛x = 6

Since k is also a cube root, it is easiest to cube both sides of the equation:

9x = 6³ = 216

Now, you can divide by 9 to find x:

x = 216/9

x = 24

Explain the following terms: positive slope, negative slope, x-intercept, y-intercept << Read Less

garik1379 [7]

Hello there!

A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.

A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.

The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.

The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.

I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
