We are given a line with the following data:
r-value = 0.657 (r)
standard deviation of x-coordinates = 2.445 (Sx)
standard deviation of y-coordinates = 9.902 (Sy)
We are asked to find the slope of the line up to 3 decimal places.
To find the slope of the line, based on the data that we have, we can use this formula:
slope, b = r * (Sy / Sx)
substitute the values to the formula:
b = 0.657 * ( 9.902 / 2.445 )
Solve for the b.
Therefore, the slope of the line is
b = 2.66078, round off to three decimal places:
b = 2.661 is the slope of the line.
Answers:
x = -8/5 or x = 8/5
Sum of the first ten terms where all terms are positive = 4092
========================================================
Explanation:
r = common ratio
- first term = 4
- second term = (first term)*(common ratio) = 4r
- third term = (second term)*(common ratio) = (4r)*r = 4r^2
The first three terms are: 4, 4r, 4r^2
We're given that the sequence is: 4, 5x, 16
Therefore, we have these two equations
Solve the second equation for r and you should find that r = -2 or r = 2 are the only possible solutions. If r = -2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = -8/5. If r = 2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = 8/5.
-----------------
To find the sum of the first n terms, we use this geometric series formula
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
We have
- a = 4 = first term
- r = 2, since we want all the terms to be positive
- n = 10 = number of terms to sum up
So,
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
S10 = 4*(1 - 2^10)/(1 - 2)
S10 = 4*(1 - 1024)/(-1)
S10 = 4*(-1023)/(-1)
S10 = 4092

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the exponential growth function for the U. S. population from 1970 through 2003:
A = 205.1e^0.011t
with the U.S. population being 205.1 million in 1970, when would the U. S. population reach 350 million?
A.
2028
B.
2048
C.
2018
D.
2038
We have the expression
A = 205.1e^0.011t
We are asked to find when would the U. S. population reach 350 million
A = 350
350 = 205.1e^0.011t
We divide both sides by 205.1
Divide both sides by 205.1
350/205.1 = 205.1e^0.011t/205.1
1.7064846416 = e^0.011t
We take the log of both sides
log 1.7064846416 = log e^0.011t
log 1.7064846416 = t log 0.011
t = log 1.7064846416/ log 0.011
t = 0.1185057826
