<h3>Answer: Choice A) -10.73</h3>

Work Shown:

Plug x = 4.3 into the equation given

ŷ = 2.6 − 3.1x

ŷ = 2.6 − 3.1(4.3)

ŷ = 2.6 − 13.33

ŷ = -10.73

Note: The symbol ŷ is read as "y hat". It's used to estimate the y value when it comes to regression equations.

The sugar content of the syrup is canned peaches is normally distributed. Assumethe can is designed to have standard deviation 5

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: 0.50477

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The sugar content of the syrup is canned peaches is normally distributed.

We assume the can is designed to have standard deviation $\sigma=5$ milligrams.

The sampling distribution of the sample variance is chi-square distribution.

Also,The data yields a sample standard deviation of $s=4.8$ milligrams.

Sample size : n= 10

Test statistic for chi-square : $\chi^2=\dfrac{s^2(n-1)}{\sigma^2}$

i.e. $\chi^2=\dfrac{(4.8)^2(10-1)}{(5)^2}=8.2944$

Now, P-value = $P(\chi^2>8.2944)=0.50477$ [By using the chi-square distribution table for p-values.]

Hence, the chance of observing the sample standard deviation greater than 4.8 milligrams = 0.50477

5.7y-5.2=y/2.5 how to solve

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

5.7y-5.2=y/2.5

Add 5.2 to both sides:

5.7y = y/2.5 + 5.2

y/2.5 = 0.4y

5.7y = 0.4y + 5.2

Subtract 0.4y from both sides:

5.3y = 5.2

Divide both sides by 5.3:

y = 5.2/5.3

y = 0.98113
