Suppose that you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each
stich3 [128]

We have been given that  you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each bounce. We are asked to find the total distance traveled by up and down from the time it was dropped from the window until the 25th bounce.            

We will use sum of geometric sequence formula to solve our given problem.

S_n=\frac{a\cdot(1-r^n)}{1-r}, where,

a = First term of sequence,

r = Common ratio,

n = Number of terms.

For our given problem a=50, r=50\%=\frac{50}{100}=0.5 and n=25.

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-(0.5)^{25})}{1-0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-0.0000000298023224)}{0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(0.9999999701976776)}{0.5}

S_{25}=100\cdot(0.9999999701976776)

S_{25}=99.99999701976776\approx 100

Therefore, the ball will travel 100 meters and option B is the correct choice.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that points scored is the dependent variable Y and Number of people attending the game is the independent variable is independent variable x

The correlation coefficient, slope and intercept are calculated as shown below:

r 0.394558035  

Slope 3.005642934  

Intercept 153.4581182  

y = 3.006x+153.46 is the regression line.

Corre = 0.3945 (weak positive)

Which of the following are true about regression with one predictor variable (often called "simple regression")? Check all that
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

<h3>A. The slope describes the amount of change in Y for a one-unit increase in X .</h3><h3>B. The regression equation is the line that best fits a set of data as determined by having the least squared error.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, linear regression is a analysis we do to describe the relationship between two variables. With this study, we pretend to know if there's a positive or negative correlation between those variables, if that correlation is strong or weak.

In a linear regression analysis, we modeled the data set using a regression equation, which is basically the line that best fits to the data set, this line is like the average where the majority of data falls. That means choice A is right.

When we use linear equations, we need to know its characteristics, and the most important one is the slope, which is the ratio between the dependent variable and the independent variable. Basically, the slope states the unit rate between Y and X, in other words, it states the amount of Y per unit of X. That means choice B is correct.

Therefore, the correct answers are A and B.
