Answer:

yeah

Step-by-step explanation:

Like based on existence theorem, for a rational number x there is a rational numner y, x^2=y

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given points. X(0, 6), Y(5, 6)

Olegator [25]

(0,6)(5,6)
notice how the y values are they same.....this means u have a horizontal line with a 0 slope.

y = 0x + 6...slope intercept form
0x + y = 6 <==== standard form

Find the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector. (Give the direction angles correct to the nearest degree.) 5, 1,

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The direction cosines are:

$\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }$ , $\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }$ and $\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }$ with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

The direction angles are:

40°, 81° and 52° with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given vector a = ai + aj + ak, its direction cosines are the cosines of the angles which it makes with the x, y and z axes.

If a makes angles α, β, and γ (which are the direction angles) with the x, y and z axes respectively, then its direction cosines are: cos α, cos β and cos γ in the x, y and z axes respectively.

Where;

cos α = $\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}$ ---------------------(i)

cos β = $\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}$ ---------------------(ii)

cos γ = $\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}$ ----------------------(iii)

And from these we can get the direction angles as follows;

α = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}$ )

β = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}$ )

γ = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}$ )

Now to the question:

Let the given vector be

a = 5i + j + 4k

a . i = (5i + j + 4k) . (i)

a . i = 5 [a.i is just the x component of the vector]

a . j = 1 [the y component of the vector]

a . k = 4 [the z component of the vector]

Also

|a|. |i| = |a|. |j| = |a|. |k| = |a| [since |i| = |j| = |k| = 1]

|a| = $\sqrt{5^2 + 1^2 + 4^2}$

|a| = $\sqrt{25 + 1 + 16}$

|a| = $\sqrt{42}$

Now substitute these values into equations (i) - (iii) to get the direction cosines. i.e

cos α = $\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }$

cos β = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }$

cos γ = $\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }$

From the value, now find the direction angles as follows;

α = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}$ )

α = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }$ )

α = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{5}{6.481}$ )

α = cos⁻¹ (0.7715)

α = 39.51

α = 40°

β = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}$ )

β = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }$ )

β = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{1}{6.481 }$ )

β = cos⁻¹ ( 0.1543 )

β = 81.12

β = 81°

γ = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}$ )

γ = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }$ )

γ = cos⁻¹ ( $\frac{4}{6.481}$ )

γ = cos⁻¹ (0.6172)

γ = 51.89

γ = 52°

Conclusion:

The direction cosines are:

$\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }$ , $\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }$ and $\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }$ with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

The direction angles are:

40°, 81° and 52° with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

What is the equation of the best-fitting regression line? Find this in two ways. First, using the regression analysis part of th

Lemur [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis is used to infer about the relationship between two or more variables.

The line of best fit is a straight line representing the regression equation on a scatter plot. The may pass through either some point or all points or none of the points.

Method 1:

Using regression analysis the line of best fit is: $y=\alpha +\beta x+e$
