The table below gives the list price and the number of bids received for five randomly selected items sold through online auctio

ns. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, yˆ=b0+b1x, for predicting the number of bids an item will receive based on the list price. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.Price in Dollars 23 34 40 46 47Number of Bids 1 3 4 5 7Step 1 of 6:Find the estimated slope.

Answer:

1) Estimated slope = b₁ = 0.215

2) Estimated y-intercept = b₀ = -4.185

3) Not all the points predicted fall on the same straight line, but the model gives a close to ideal estimate of the line of best fit.

4) The estimated value of y when x=46 is 5.705

5) The value of the dependent variable y^ at x=0 is -4.185

6) The coefficient of determination = 0.951

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we apply regression analysis

y = b₀ + b₁x

Price in Dollars | 23 | 34 | 40 | 46 | 47

Number of Bids | 1 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 7

For this question, we want to predict the number of bids (dependent variable, y), given the list price of the item (independent variable, x)

So, running the analysis on a spreadsheet application, like excel, the table of parameters is obtained and presented in the first attached image to this solution.

Σxᵢ = sum of all the independent variables (sum of all the list prices)

Σyᵢ = sum of all the dependent variables (sum of all the number of bids in the table)

Σxᵢyᵢ = sum of the product of each dependent variable and its corresponding independent variable

Σxᵢ² = sum of the square of each independent variable (list prices)

Σyᵢ² = sum of the square of each dependent variable (number of bids)

n = number of variables = 5

The scatter plot and the line of best fit is presented in the second attached image to this solution

Then the regression analysis is then done

Slope; m = b₁ = [n×Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)×(Σyᵢ)] / [nΣxᵢ² - (∑xi)²]

Intercept b: b₀ = [Σyᵢ - m×(Σxᵢ)] / n

Mean of x = (Σxᵢ)/n

Mean of y = (Σyᵢ) / n

Sample correlation coefficient r: r =

[n*Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)(Σyᵢ)] ÷ {√([n*Σxᵢ² - (Σxᵢ)²][n*Σyᵢ² - (Σyᵢ)²])}

And -1 ≤ r ≤ +1

All of these formulas are properly presented in the third attached image to this answer

The table of results; mean of x, mean of y, intercept, slope, regression equation and sample coefficient is presented in the fourth attached image to this answer.

Hence, the regression equation is

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

y = b₀ + b₁x

Intercept = b₀ = -4.185

Slope = b₁ = 0.215

And the regression coefficient = 0.951 (Which is very close to 1 and indicates statistic significance)

Hence, we can use this answer obtained to answer the questions attached

1) Find the estimated slope.

Estimated slope = b₁ = 0.215

2) Find the estimated y-intercept.

Estimated y-intercept = b₀ = -4.185

3) Determine if the statement "All points predicted by the linear model fall on the same line" is true or false.

Taking a few of sample data

x = 23 when y = 1

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

y = -4.185 + 0.215 (23) = 0.76 ≈ 1

x = 34, y = 3

y = -4.185 + 0.215 (34) = 3.125 ≈ 3

Hence, it is evident that not all the points predicted fall on the same straight line, but the model gives a close to ideal estimate of the line of best fit.

4) Find the estimated value of y when x=46.

The linear model is

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

when x = 46

y = -4.185 + 0.215(46) = 5.705

5) Determine the value of the dependent variable y^ at x=0.

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

when x = 0

y = -4.185 + 0.215(0) = -4.185

6) Find the value of the coefficient of determination.

The coefficient of determination = regression coefficient = 0.951 (as calculated above)

Hope this Helps!!!

Find the sides of a rectangle having area 125 square units if the sides are in the ratio 5:3.
tatiyna

For this case we have the following data:

Area of the rectangle, A = 125

Relationship of the sides 5: 3

By definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:

A = a * b

Where

  • a: is the longest side.
  • b: it is the side of least length.

If the sides have a 5: 3 ratio, it means:

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{5}{3}

a=\frac{5}{3}b

Substituting in the formula of the area, we have:

125 =a * b\\

125=\frac{5}{3}b*b

Clearing b:

3 * 125 = 5 * b ^ 2

\frac{375}{5}= b ^ 2

75 = b ^ 2

b =\sqrt{75}b = 8.7 units

Substituting and clearing:

125 = a * 8.7

a =\frac{125}{8.7}

a = 14.4units

So, the sides are:

a = 14.4units

b = 8.7units

Answer:

a = 14.4units

b = 8.7units

The circle with center O has a minor arc BSA with a length of
tangare [24]

Answer:

D. \frac{27\pi}{2} inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the circle with center O has a minor arc BSA with a length of 3\pi^{2} inches. The central angle is 40°.

To find the circumference of circle we will use formula:

\frac{\text{Central angle}}{2\pi}=\frac{\text{Arc length}}{2\pi r}, where 2\pi= measure of 360 degrees in radians and 2\pi r= circumference of circle.  

Let us convert measure of central angle into radians.                        

40^{o}=\frac{40*\pi}{180} =\frac{2\pi}{9}

Upon substituting our given value in the formula we will get,        

\frac{\frac{2\pi}{9}}{2\pi}=\frac{\frac{3\pi}{2}}{2\pi r}

\frac{2\pi}{18\pi}=\frac{3\pi}{4\pi r}    

\frac{1}{9}=\frac{3}{4r}      

Cross multiplying we will get,      

4r=27  

r=\frac{27}{4}

Hence, the radius of our circle is 27/4 inches.  

Since the circumference of circle is 2\pi r. Upon substituting  r=\frac{27}{4} we will get,

2\pi r=2\pi* \frac{27}{4}=\frac{27\pi}{2}

Therefore, circumference of our given circle will be \frac{27\pi}{2} inches and option D is the correct choice.
