Can we predict how fast a tennis player can hit a serve from the playerâs height? The following computer output and scatterplot

describe the regression of fastest serve speed (in kilometers per hour) and the height (in meters) of 21 current male professional tennis players.
a. Describe the relationship between height and fastest serve speed for these tennis players.
b. Write the equation of the least-squares regression line. Define any variables used.
c. Interpret the value "R-sq = 27.7%".
d. What is the slope of the least-squares regression line? Interpret this value.
e. Predict the fastest serve of a professional tennis player whose is 1.7 meters tall. Comment on the reliability of this prediction.
f. What is the value of the correlation between height and fastest serve speed? Interpret this value.
g. Calculate the residual for the player that is 2.06 meters tall and has a fastest serve speed of 230 km/hr. Interpret this value.

Complete question :

The computer output and scatter plot output pertaining to the question can be found in the attached picture.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Relationship between height and fastest serve speed :

According to the scatterplot and Correlation Coefficient (R) value which can be obtauned by getting the square root of R²

R = √27.7%

R = 0.5263 = 52.63% ; this depicts a fairly strong positive correlation or relationship between height and fastest serve speed

B.)

Equation of least square regression line :

From the computer output and scatter plot above :

Recall :

y = mx + c

y =predicted variable (s fastest serve)

m= slope

x = predictor variable (height)

c = intercept

y = 84.98x + 68.81

C.) 27.7% of the variation in fastest speed can be explained by height while the remaining percentage is due to other variables

D.) fastest serve of tennis player with height 1.7m

y = 84.98x + 68.81

y = 84.98(1.7) + 68.81

y = 213.276km/hr

E.)

R = √27.7%

R = 0.5263 = 52.63% ; this depicts a fairly strong positive correlation or relationship between height and fastest serve speed

F.)

Height = 2.06m = x

y = 84.98(2.06) + 68.81

y = 243.8688 km/hr

Residual = Actual - predicted

Actual = 230 ; predicted = 243.8688

Residual = 230 - 243.8688

Residual = −13.8688

Hence, the model overestimated fastest serve speed of a 2.06 m tall player by −13.8688 km/hr

Please Helps me i put this for 92 points
natulia [17]

Answer:

Michael is incorrect.

if we take the steps Michael says and move the ABCDE up 8 and right 10, not all of the points line up.

Step by step explanation:

In order to get the shapes to line up, we need to flip (reflect) ABCDE onto the 2nd Quadrant, then we can move (translate) it to the right by 10.

If the simple interest on $6,000 for 3 years is $1,620, then what is the interest rate?
Volgvan

Answer:

Interest rate: 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the simple interest formula: A=P(1+rt)

A=Final amount

P=Principal amount

r=rate

t=time (years)

We just need to put in the information we have from the question and solve for r.

7,620=6000(1+r3)

7,620/6000=1+r3

1.27=1+r3

0.27=r3

r=0.09

r=9%

Refer to the image i couldnt copy it so the image is the quesstion<br><br> answer in true or false
Irina18 [472]

The sign of "b" on the numerator should be negative. So we conclude that the correct option is false.

<h3>Is the equation in the image correct or incorrect?</h3>

For a quadratic equation of the form:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

By using the Bhaskara's formula, the solutions of the equation:

0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c

Are given by the formula:

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

Notice that the sign of the first term on the numerator should be negative, while on the image it is positive.

So the equation shown in the image is incorrect.
