statements must be true?
a. The correlation coefficient of the data is positive.
b. The sum of the residuals for the data based on the regression line is positive.
c. A scatterplot of the data would show a linear pattern.
d. The slope of the sample regression line is 1.348.
e. The slope of the sample regression line is 0.

Answer: a. The correlation coefficient of the data is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated slope of sample regression line  = \dfrac{Upper \ limit + lower\ limit}{2}

Here , confidence interval :  (-0.181, 1.529)

Estimated slope of sample regression line  = \dfrac{-0.181+1.529}{2}

=\dfrac{1.348}{2}\\\\=0.674\ \ \ \ [\text{ positive}]

⇒Correlation coefficient(r) must be positive, So a. is true.

But, d. and e. are wrong(0.674 ≠ 0 or 1.348).

We cannot check residuals or its sum from confidence interval of slope of a regression line, so b is wrong.

We cannot say that scatterplot is linear as we cannot determine it from interval, so c. is wrong

So, the correct option : a. The correlation coefficient of the data is positive.

Hmmm... a geometric sequence MUST have a fixed common ratio. If it is changing, then the sequence you are looking at might not be a geometric sequence at all. We'd need to see an example to be sure.

20. A ball is dropped from a height of a little over 5 feet, and the height is measured at small intervals. The table below show
nekit [7.7K]

Step 1:

a) Write the quadratic model

a = -15.64

b = -1.24

c = 5.23

P(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.24t + 5.2}3

b) t = 0.30

\begin{gathered} P(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.24t + 5.2}3 \\ =\text{ -15.64 }\times0.3^2\text{ - 1.24}\times\text{ 0.3 + 5.2}3 \\ =\text{ -1.4076 - 0.372 + }5.23 \\ =\text{ 3.45} \end{gathered}

c) t = 0.52 seconds

\begin{gathered} p(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ =\text{ -15.64}\times0.52^2\text{ - 1.23}\times0.52\text{ + 5.23} \\ =\text{ -4.23 - 0.64 + 5.23} \\ =\text{ 0.36} \end{gathered}

d) 0.30 is more likely to be relaible.

e)

\begin{gathered} p(t)\text{ = 1} \\ p(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ 1=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ -15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 4.23 = 0} \\ t\text{ = 0.48222} \\ \text{t = 0.48 seconds} \end{gathered}

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line with the slope of -5/8 that passes through the point (-14,6)
inessss [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1 = m(x-x1) is the equation for a linear line in y=mx+b (slope intercept)

slope = m = -5/8

x1 = -14

y1 = 6

y-6 = -5/8 (x--14)

y-6 = -5/8 (x+14)

y-6 = -5/8x-70/8

y-48/8= -5/8x-70/8

y = -5/8x - 22/8

When x = 0, y = -22/8, which makes (0, -22/8) your y intercept
