Answer:

residual cost = $24.57

Step-by-step explanation:

The residual is the difference between the observed value of y and the predicted value of y. The least square regression equation was used to predict cost in dollars per barrel of jet fuel  from the cost , in dollars ,per barrel of crude oil. The residual value is the difference between the observed or measured value and the predicted value of  the regression model . The predicted value is gotten from the regression equation.

y = 2 + 6/7 x

where

x = cost of a barrel of crude oil

x = $60

y = 2 + 6/7 × 60

y = 2 + 360/7

y = 2 + 51.4285714286

y = 53.4285714286

y = $53. 43

predicted cost = $53. 43

Measured cost  = $78

residual = observed value - predicted value

residual = 78 - 53.43

residual cost = $24.57

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that an article in the Sacramento Bee (March 8, 1984, p. A1) reported on a study finding that "men who drank 500 ounces or more of beer a month (about 16 ounces a day) were three times more likely to develop cancer of the rectum than non-drinkers."

To support this some data collected should be given.  The data should be from a sample of a large size randomly drawn from 2 groups one men who drank 500 oz or more of beer and other group not drank that much.  These people medical history with cancer patients number also should have been given.

company A :

30,000 + 0.03(37499) = 31124.97...sales less then 37500

30,000 + 0.03(37501) = 31125.03....sales exceed 37500

30,000 + 0.03(249000) = 37470 ...sales less then 250000

30,000 + 0.03(251000) = 37530....sales exceed 250000


company B :

25,000 + 0.05(37499) = 26874.95...sales less then 37500

25,000 + 0.05(37501) = 26875.05...sales exceed 37500

25000 + 0.05(249000) = 37450...sales less then 250000

25,000 + 0.05(251000) = 37550...sales exceed 250000


so i believe your answer is option b,

company A pays better when sales are less then 250,000, but company B pays better when sales exceed 250,000 <==

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

b = 45 / 4 = 11 1 /4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with a (30,60,90)-triangle, therefore z = 15 sqrt(3) / 2. So as well b = (15 sqrt(3) / 2) sqrt(3) / 2 = 45 / 4.
