Answer:

0.621

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people that have run a red light in the last year = 290

Number of people that have not run a red light in the last year = 177

Total number of respondents = 290 + 177

                                                 = 467

Pr(if a person is chosen at random, they have run a red light in the last year) = \frac{number of people who has run the red light last year}{total number of respondents}

                   = \frac{290}{467}

                   = 0.621

The probability that if a person is chosen at random, they have run a red light in the last year is 0.621.

Ratling [72]

Answer: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to draw diagonal BD, then we would create two congruent triangles, and we could find the area of each using the formula A=\frac{1}{2} ab \sin C.

However, since there are two triangles, we can double this, giving us A=ab \sin C.

So, the area is A=(10)(6)(\sin 30^{\circ})=\boxed{30}

Modern medical practice tells us not to encourage babies to become too fat. Is there a positive correlation between the weight x
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a) Figure attached

b) y=1.31 x +98.57

c) The correlation coefficient would be r =0.47719

d) y=1.31 x +98.57=1.31*21 + 98.57 =126.08

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Draw a scatter diagram for the data.

See the figure attached

(b) Find x, y, b, and the equation of the least-squares line. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) x =__ y =__ b =__ y =__ + __x

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}

Where:

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}

With these we can find the sums:

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=6576-\frac{300^2}{14}=147.429

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=38186-\frac{300*1773}{14}=193.143

And the slope would be:

m=\frac{193.143}{147.429}=1.31

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{300}{14}=21.429

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{1773}{14}=126.643

And we can find the intercept using this:

b=\bar y -m \bar x=126.643-(1.31*21.429)=98.571

So the line would be given by:

y=1.31 x +98.57

(c) Find the sample correlation coefficient r and the coefficient of determination r?2. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

n=14 \sum x = 300, \sum y = 1773, \sum xy=38186, \sum x^2 =6576, \sum y^2 =225649  

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}

r=\frac{14(38186)-(300)(1773)}{\sqrt{[14(6576) -(300)^2][14(225649) -(1773)^2]}}=0.9534

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.47719

What percentage of variation in y is explained by the least-squares model? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by r^2 and on this case 0.47719^2 =0.2277, so then the % of variation explaines is 22.8%.

(d) If a female baby weighs 21 pounds at 1 year, what do you predict she will weigh at 30 years of age? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) ___ lb

So we can replace in the linear model like this:

y=1.31 x +98.57=1.31*21 + 98.57 =126.08

Simplify the expression -3(x+3)+4x
Korolek [52]

Answer:

x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, "simplify" directs that you 1) carry out the indicated multiplication and 2) combine like terms.

-3(x+3)+4x = -3x - 9 + 4x = x - 9
