Suppose in this semester, our Exam 1 average was about 86 with an SD of about 10. Suppose the correlation between our Exam 1 and

Exam 2 scores will be similar to what it has been in the past, about 0.6, and finally, suppose our Exam 2 scores will be similar to previous semesters' Exam 2 scores with an average of 76 and a SD of 8.2. Use this information to answer the following questions:
1. What is the slope of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 scores? Round to 3 decimal places.
2. What is the y-intercept of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 scores? Round to 3 decimal places.

Answer:

the slope of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 scores is 0.492

And the y-intercept of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 is 33.688

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;  

mean X" = 86

SD σx = 10

Y" = 76

SD σy = 8.2

r = 0.6

Here, Exam 2 is dependent and Exam 1 is independent.

The Regression equation is

y - Y" = r × σy/σx  ( x - x" )

we substitute

y - 76 = 0.6 × 8.2/10  ( x - 86 )

y  - 76 = 0.492( x - 86 )

y  - 76 = 0.492x - 42.312

y = 0.492x - 42.312 + 76

y = 0.492x + 33.688

Hence, the slope of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 scores is 0.492

And the y-intercept of the regression equation for predicting our Exam 2 scores from Exam 1 is 33.688

Write in point-slope form an equation of the line that passes through the
QveST [7]

Answer:

y+6 = - 5(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

With the given information, use the point-slope formula y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the m, x_1, and y_1 to find the answer.

m represents the slope, so substitute -5 in its place. The x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute 4 for x_1 and -6 for y_1. This gives the following equation:

y+6 = - 5(x-4)

Jorge is mixing a special shade of orange paint. He mixed 1 gallon of red paint with 3 gallons of yellow paint. Based on this ra
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

a. b. c. and d.  are true; e. is false

Step-by-step explanation:

1 gallon of red paint : 3 gallons of yellow paint

                                  &

1 gallon of red paint + 3 gallons of yellow paint = 4 gallons of orange paint

<em>a. 3/4 of a 4-gallon mix would be yellow paint.</em>

<em>True. 3 out of 4 gallon mix is yellow and 1 out 4 is red</em>

<em />

<em>b. Every 1 gallon of yellow paint requires 1/3 gallon of red paint.</em>

1 gallon of red paint : 3 gallons of yellow paint

divide by 3 in both sides of :

1/3 gallon of red paint : 3/3 gallons of yellow paint

<em>1/3 gallon of red paint: 1 gallon of yellow paint. True</em>

<em />

<em>c. Every 1 gallon of red paint requires 3 gallons of yellow paint.</em>

<em>True. </em>1 gallon of red paint : 3 gallons of yellow paint

<em />

<em>d. There is 1 gallon of red paint in a 4-gallon mix of orange paint.</em>

<em>True. 1 out of 4 is red and 3 out of 4 is yellow.</em>

<em />

<em>e. There are 2 gallons of yellow paint in an 8-gallon mix of orange paint.</em>

<em />

1 gallon of red paint + 3 gallons of yellow paint = 4 gallons of orange paint

Multiply by 2 each side of the equation

2(1 of red paint + 3 of yellow paint) = 2(4 of orange paint)

apply to each member of the parenthesis ()

2 of red paint + 6 of yellow paint = 8 of orange paint

Actually there are 6 gallons of yellow paint in a 8 gallon mix. So e. is false.
