Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the utility for the line of best fit,

Equation of the line of best fit will be,

y = 1.5x + 1.32

Here, y - intercept of the line = 1.32

Here, y-intercept represents the amount of bean production when the level of water applied was zero.

Can i please have help with number 6

Allisa [31]

Length of the diameter = sqrt ( (-12- (-8)^2) +(2-0)^2) )
= sqrt (16 + 4) = sqrt20
so radius = sqrt 20 / 2 = sqrt5
so r^2 = 5

Center of the circle = coordinates of the midpoint of the diameter =

-8-12/2 , 2-0 / 2 = (-10, 1)

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 is general form of a circle so here the circle is:_

(x + 10)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 5 Answer

Its B

If a 40-foot tree casts a 16-foot shadow, find the length of the shadow cast by a 24-foot tree

Mrrafil [7]

40/16 = 24/x

16*24 = 384

x = 384 / 40

x =9.6

it cast a shadow 9.6 feet long

A. The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length plus twice the width. If L represents the length and W represents the width

vampirchik [111]

Perimeter P = 2L + 2W

b. P = 2*1010 + 2*1818 = 2020 + 3636 = 5656 inches

Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate

Charra [1.4K]

Option A and B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following systems of equation:

$2x + 6y = 12 \\4x + 3y = 15$

We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.

Checking the options:

a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30

If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

b) Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.

If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

So, Option A and B are correct.

The probability mass function of X is f(x)= 1/6, x 1.2...,6 then find out the value

Mumz [18]

For the given probability mass function of X, the mean is 3.5 and the standard deviation is 1.708.

A discrete random variable X's probability mass function (PMF) is a function over its sample space that estimates the likelihood that X will have a given value. f(x)=P[X=x].
The total of all potential values for a random variable X, weighted by their relative probabilities, is known as the mean (or expected value E[X]) of that variable.
Mean(μ) = 1(1/6) + 2(1/6) + 3(1/6) + 4(1/6) + 5(1/6) + 6(1/6).
Mean(μ) = (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6
Mean(μ) = 21/6
Mean(μ) = 3.5
The square root of the variance of a random variable, sample, statistical population, data collection, or probability distribution represents its standard deviation. It is denoted by 'σ'.
A random variable's variance (or Var[X]) is a measurement of the range of potential values. It is, by definition, the squared expectation of the distance between X and μ. It is denoted by 'σ²'.
σ² = E[X²]−μ²
σ² = [1²(1/6) + 2²(1/6) + 3²(1/6) + 4²(1/6) + 5²(1/6) + 6²(1/6)] - (3.5)²
σ² = [(1² + 2²+ 3² + 4²+ 5²+ 6²)/6] - (3.5)²
σ² = [(1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 + 36)/6] - (3.5)²
σ² = (91/6) - (3.5)²
σ² = 15.167-12.25
σ² = 2.917
σ = √2.917
Standard deviation (σ) = 1.708
