Answer:

height = 13.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Pythagorean theorem

hypotenuse^2 =base^2 + height^2

15^2 = 6^2+height^2

225 = 36 + height^2

189 = height^2

height = 13.75 feet

The Collatz conjecture is one of the most famous unsolved mathematical problems, because it's so simple, you can explain it to a

Vinil7 [7]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you need a brief explanation about The Collatz conjecture.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Put simply, what the Collatz conjecture unsolved problem entails is that if any positive number is picked and it is:

An even number (eg 2, 4, 6,...), then if they are divided by 2, the new number gotten should undergo the same process (that is to be divided by 2), it is believed your calculation would finally end up at 1. For example, let's pick the number 6, (6÷2=4; repeating the process 4÷2=<u>1</u>)
An odd number, then if they are multiplied by 3 and 1 is added to the result, it is believed that your calculation would finally end up at 1.

A researcher collected data on the hours of TV watched per day from a sample of five people of different ages. Here are the resu

frozen [14]

Answer:

1. The least squares regression is y = -0.1015·x + 6.51

2. The independent variable is b) age

Please see attached table

Step-by-step explanation:

The least squares regression formula is given as follows;

$\dfrac{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}(x_{i} - \bar{x})\times \left (y_{i} - \bar{y} \right ) }{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}(x_{i} - \bar{x})^{2}}$

We have;

$\bar x$ = 24

$\bar y$ = 4

$\Sigma (x_i - \bar x) (y_i - \bar y)$ = -79

$\Sigma (x_i - \bar x)^2$ = 778

$\therefore \hat \beta =\dfrac{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}(x_{i} - \bar{x})\times \left (y_{i} - \bar{y} \right ) }{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}(x_{i} - \bar{x})^{2}} = \frac{-79}{778} = -0.1015$

The least squares regression is y = -0.1015·x + α

∴ α = y -0.1015·x = 6 - (-0.1015 × 5) = 6.51

The least squares regression is thus;

y = -0.1015·x + 6.51

2. The independent variable is the age b)

3. Steps to create an ANOVA table with α = 0.05

The overall mean = (43 + 30 + 22 + 20 + 5 + 1 + 6 + 4 + 3 + 6 )/10 = 14

There are 2 different treatment = $df_{treat} = 2 - 1 = 1$

There are 10 different treatment measurement = $df_{tot} = 10 - 1 = 9$

$df_{res} = 9 - 1 = 8$

$df_{treat} + df_{res} = df_{tot}$

The estimated effects are;

$\hat A_1 = 24 - 14 = 10$

$\hat A_2 = 4 - 14 = -10$

$SS_{treat} = 10^2 \times 5 + (-10)^2 \times 5 =1000$

$\sum_{i}\SS_{row}_i = \sum_{i}\sum_{j} (y_{ij} - \bar y)= [(1 - 4)^2 + (6 - 4)^2 + (4 - 4)^2 + (3 - 4)^2 + (6 - 4)^2] = 18$

$\sum_{i} S S_{row}_i = \sum_{i}\sum_{j} (y_{ij} - \bar y) ^2= [(43 - 24)^2 + (30 - 24)^2 + (22 - 24)^2 + (20 - 24)^2 + (5 - 24)^2] = 778$

$S S_{res} = \sum_{i} S S_{row}_i = 778 + 18 = 796$

$SS_{tot}$ = (43 - 14)² + (30 - 14)² + (22 - 14)² + (20 - 14)² + (5 - 14)² + (1 - 14)1² + (6 - 4 )² + (3 - 14)² + (6 - 14)² = 1796

$MS_{treat} = \dfrac{SS_{treat} }{df_{treat} } = \dfrac{1000}{1} = 1000$

$MS_{res} = \dfrac{SS_{res} }{df_{res} } = \dfrac{796}{8} = 99.5$

F- value is given by the relation;

$F = \dfrac{MS_{treat} }{MS_{res} } = \frac{1000}{99.5} = 10.05$

We then look for the critical values at degrees of freedom 1 and 8 at α = 0.05 on the F-distribution tables 5.3177

Hence; $F = 10.05 > F_{1,8}^{Krit}(5\%) = 5.3177$ , we reject the null hypothesis.
