Hi Natalie
We have x/4 = 9
All you have to do is cross multiplication
x = 4*9
x= 36
That's all :)
I hope that's help:)
Now if you wanna check my answer just replace x by 36
36/4 = 9
9= 9
Because when you divide 36 by 4 you will find 9
I hope that's help:)
I think the answer to your question is
3,942,000
Answer:
a)
b) r =-0.932
The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by
and on this case
, so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the following dataset:
Monthly Sales (Y) Interest Rate (X)
22 9.2
20 7.6
10 10.4
45 5.3
Part a
And we want a linear model on this way y=mx+b, where m represent the slope and b the intercept. In order to find the slope we have this formula:
Where:
With these we can find the sums:
And the slope would be:
Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:
And we can find the intercept using this:
So the line would be given by:
Part b
For this case we need to calculate the correlation coefficient given by:
So then the correlation coefficient would be r =-0.932
The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by
and on this case
, so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.
I am unsure about the very last problem but I can help with the first two
1) (y+1)+4
If we combine the numbers 1 and 4, we get +5 and can isolate the numbers from the variable.
This would give us

2) (6*r)*7
remember that we do not have to explicitly state 6*r
Instead, we can write it as 6r
this helps us get rid of the parentheses
now we can write it as

I hope this helps!:)
