Cricket chirps: Temperature Anyone who has been outdoors on a summer evening has probably heard crickets. Did you know that it i

s possible to use the cricket as a thermometer? Crickets tend to chirp more frequently as temperatures increase. This phenomenon was studied in detail by George W. Pierce, a physics professor at Harvard. In the following data, x is a random variable representing chirps per second and y is the random variable representing temperature (F). These data are also available for download at the online study center.X 20.0 16.0 19.8 18.4 17.1 15.5 14.7 17.1Y 88.6 71.6 93.3 84.3 80.6 75.2 69.7 82.0X 15.4 16.2 15.0 17.2 16.0 17.0 14.4Y 69.4 83.3 79.6 82.6 80.6 83.5 76.3Complete parts (a) through (e), given ?x= 249.8, ?y=1200.6, ?x^2= 4200.56, ?y^2= 96,752.86, ?xy= 20,127.47 and r = 0.835.A) Draw a scatter diagram displaying the data.B) Find X- bar, Y- bar, a and b. Then find the equation of the least squares line y=a+bx.C) Graph the least squares line on your scatter diagram. Be sure to use the point ( X-bar, Y- bar) as one of the points on the line.D) Find the value of the coefficient of determination r ^2. What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least squares line? What percentage is unexplained?E) What is the predicted temperature when x= 19 chirps per second.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using technology on the data above, the least square regression equation obtained is ;

y = 33.4528+2.7975x

Where, slope = 2.7975 ; Intercept = 33.4528

x = chirps per second, independent variable

y = temperature, predicted variable.

The Correlation Coefficient, r = 0.71

The Coefficient of determination, r² = 0.71² = 0.5041

The percentage of variation in y due to regression is the r² value, which is about 50.41%

Hence, the percentage variation in temperature due to the regression line is 50.4, while the rest is due to other factors.

Predicted temperature, y when x = 19 ;

Put x = 19

y = 33.4528+2.7975(19)

y = 86.60°

If a quadrilateral has exactly 2 lines of symmetry, and both are angle bisectors, then which statement would be true
aleksley [76]

- I think it's possibly this "The figure must be a square because the diagonals of a square bisect the right angles." but there's also "The figure must be a rhombus because it has exactly 2 pairs of congruent angles." buuut since the first one seems more better i'm assuming then that's probably the right answer.

Need help ASAP!!!!! I WILL GIVE THE MOST BRAINLIEST TO THE FIRST PERSON THAT ANSWERS
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

x^2 + 10x + y^2 -4y + -7 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For any circle point with coordinate of center (a,b) and radius r

equation of circle is given by

(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2

_______________________________________

Given

coordinate of center =  (-5,2)

radius = 6

thus, equation of circle can be written by substituting a and b with (-5 ,2) and r =6 as shown below

(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2\\(x-(-5))^2 + (y-2)^2 = 6^2\\x^2 + 10x + 25 + y^2 -4y + 4 = 36\\=>x^2 + 10x + y^2 -4y + 29 = 36\\=>x^2 + 10x + y^2 -4y + 29 -36 = 36 -36\\=>x^2 + 10x + y^2 -4y + -7 = 0

Thus, equation of circle is x^2 + 10x + y^2 -4y + -7 = 0

What are the two solutions of 2x^2 = -X^2 - 5x - 1?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve 2x^2 = -X^2 - 5x - 1.  Consolidate all terms on the left side and write 0 on the right side:

3x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0.  This is a quadratic equation.  Let's solve it for x using the quadratic formula:

a = 3, b = 5, c = 1, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac = 5^2 - 4(3)(1) = 13.  Because the discriminant is positive, we know that there are two distinct, real roots; the graphs of y = 2x^2 and y = x^2 - 5x - 1 intersect in two places whose x-coordinates are the real roots mentioned above.

Answer A is not correct as stated, but would be correct if we were to replace "the y-coordinates" with "the x-coordinates."  

Answer C would be correct if and only if we write y = x^2 - 5x - 1.
