How do I draw and determine the equation of a trend line on a scatterplot

Nat2105 [25]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Draw your trend line.

You begin by drawing your trend line. You want your trend line to follow your data. You want to have roughly half your data above the line and the other half below the line, like this:

trend line equation

Step 2: Locate two points on the line.

Your next step is to locate two points on the trend line. Look carefully at your trend line and look for two easy to figure out points on the line. Ideally, these are points where the trend line crosses a clearly identifiable location.

For the trend line that we just drew, we can see these two easily identifiable points.

trend line equation

We can easily identify these two points as (3, 3) and (12, 6).

Step 3: Plug these two points into the formula for slope.

The formula for slope is this one:

trend line equation

We can label our first point as (x1,y1), and our second point as (x2,y2). So our x1 is 3, our y1 is 3, our x2 is 12, and our y2 is 6. Plugging these values into the equation for slope and evaluating, we get this:

trend line equation

So our slope is 1/3.

An automobile manufacturer is concerned about a possible recall of its best selling four-door sedan. If there was a recall there

goldfiish [28.3K]

Complete question is;

An automobile manufacturer is concerned about a possible recall of its best - selling four-door sedan. If there were a recall, there is a probability of 0.25 of a defect in the brake system, 0.18 of a defect in the transmission, 0.17 of a defect in the fuel system, and 0.40 of a defect in some other area.

(a) What is the probability that the defect is the brakes or the fueling system if the probability of defects in both systems simultaneously is 0.15?

(b) What is the probability that there are no defects in either the brakes or the fueling system?

Answer:

A) 0.27

B) 0.73

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B denote that there is a defect in the break system

Let T demote that there is a defect in transmission

Let F denote that there is a defect in the fuel system.

Let P denote that there is a defect in some other area.

Now, we are given;

P(B) = 0.25

P(T) = 0.18

P(F) = 0.17

P(O) = 0.40

A) We are given that probability of defects in both brakes and the fueling system simultaneously is 0.15.

Thus, it means; P(B ⋂ F) = 0.15

Now, we want to find the probability that the defect is the brakes or the fueling system. This is expressed as;

P(B ⋃ F) = P(B) + P(F) - P(B ⋂ F)

Plugging in the relevant values to give;

P(B ⋃ F) = 0.25 + 0.17 - 0.15

P(B ⋃ F) = 0.27

B) We want to find the probability that there are no defects in either the brakes or the fueling system.

This is expressed as;

P(B' ⋃ F') = 1 - P(B ⋃ F)

Plugging in relevant value;

P(B' ⋃ F') = 1 - 0.27

P(B' ⋃ F') = 0.73

A paint company mixes it's paint with water to create more paint per gallon. They currently have ten gallon jugs which contain 1

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

<h3>Answer: 1.25 gallons</h3>

==================================

Explanation:

They currently have ten gallon jugs that contain 10% water, so this means 0.10*10 = 1 gallon of the jug is water and the other 10-1 = 9 gallons is paint. This is assuming the cans are just paint and water.

The ratio of paint to water is 90:10 which reduces to 9:1

Often it helps to reduce as much as possible, but it's actually more handy in this case to keep it at 90:10 so you can see the two parts add back up to 100%

--------------

Let x be the amount of water we add. This amount is in gallons.

We start off with 1 gallon of water and it bumps up to 1+x gallons of water.

The overall amount of 10 gallons also bumps up to 10+x gallons.

We want a ratio of 80:20 this time, so we want 20 parts water and 80 parts paint. In other words, we want 20/(20+80) = 20/100 = 20% water

Divide (1+x) over (10+x) to get (1+x)/(10+x). This represents the fraction of water. We want this fraction to be equal to 0.20, which is the 20% water amount. It is also equal to 20/100.

--------------

(1+x)/(10+x) = 20/100

100(1+x) = 20(10+x) ... cross multiply

100+100x = 200+20x ... distribute

100x-20x = 200-100

80x = 100

x = 100/80 ... divide both sides by 80

x = 1.25

You need to add 1.25 gallons of water

--------------

If you add 1.25 gallons of water, then,

amount of water = 1+x = 1+1.25 = 2.25

amount of paint&water = 10+x = 10+1.25 = 11.25

So you'll have 2.25 gallons of water out of 11.25 gallons of water&paint mix

2.25/11.25 = 0.2 = 20% water

This confirms our answer.

--------------

Extra info:

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1/4 gallon

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1 quart

This is because 1 gallon = 4 quarts, so 1 quart = 1/4 gallon.
