(Bowls, Height) (1, 2) (5,5)
Slope is (5-2)/(5-1) = 3/4 inch
y = (3/4)x + b
(2) = (3/4)(1) + b
(2)-(3/4) = b
B=1.25. Y= 0.75*x + 1.25.
Part B
X is the number of bowls in the stack and Y is the corresponding height of the stack.
To measure George's rate of change, we first set out two pairs of independent and dependent data which in this case is the day number and the point
Independent Data: Day 2 Independent Data: Day 4
Dependent Data: 8 points Dependant Data: 12 points
Then we find the difference between the two independent values and the two dependent values
4 - 2 = 2
12 - 8 =4
To find the rate we use the following formula
the difference of dependent value ÷ the difference of independent value =
4 ÷ 2 = 2
Hence the average rate of change is an increase of 2 points a day
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The pediatrician said that the z-score for the boy's height, relative to other 2-year-olds in the country, was 1.59
He explains to the parents of the boy, that the extreme 5% of cases often require special attention.
(A) Does this child fall into that group?
Yes, this child falls into that group. He is among the extreme 5% of cases at the tail of the distribution.
(B) What do you need to assume about the heights of 2-year-olds, in order to find your answer to part (A)?
Assume that the distribution of heights is skewed, the heights are independent of one another, and the number of heights is very large.
Answer:
You don't really need to do it, but it helps you keep things more organized and easier to follow. Imagine if you're doing some multi-variable equation,
2a + 5b + 4d + 3c + b + a + 2d
that looks like a mess, it'll be easier to look at if you put all the similar variables next to each others like this:
a + 2a + b + 5b + 3c + 2d + 4d
(a + 2a) + (b + 5b) + 3c + (2d + 4d)
now you can add them up much easier.
