You find your dependent variable has a high degree of kurtosis. What is the first way to try to fix it?

The first way to try to fix this is to apply logarithm to the observations on the dependent variable. This is going to make the dependent variable with high degree of kurtosis normal.

Note that sometimes, the resulting values of the variable will be negative. Do not worry about this, as it is not a problem. It does not affect the regression coefficients, it only affects the regression intercept, which after transformation, will be of no interest.

4x2 + 9y2 = 72<br> 2x - y = 4<br><br> Which of the following is a solution to the system shown?
Ede4ka [16]
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:

4x^2 + 9y^2 = 72
2x - y = 4 ... 2x - 4 = y
_________
<span>4x^2 + 9y^2 = 72
</span><span>4x^2 + 9 * (2x - 4)^2 = 72
</span>4x^2 + 9 * (4x^2 - 16x + 16) = 72
4x^2 + 36x^2 - 144x + 144 = 72
40x^2 - 144x + 144 - 72 = 0
40x^2 - 144x + 72 = 0
10x^2 - 36x + 18 = 0
5x^2 - 18x + 9 = 0
(5x - 3) * (x - 3) = 0
1. 5x - 3 = 0 ... 5x = 3 ... x = 3/5
2. x = 3

<span>1. y = 2x - 4 = 2 * 3/5 - 4 = 6/5 - 20/5 = -14/5
2. y = 2x - 4 = 2 * 3 - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2

1. (x, y) = (3/5, -14/5)
2. (x, y) = (3, 2)

The correct result would be </span>(3/5, -14/5) and <span>(3, 2).</span>

An elevator descends into mine shaft at the rate of 6m/min. If the descend starts from 10m above the ground level , how long wil
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: Hi!

So first, I'm going to convert "350 below ground level" to -350, as this is what "below ground level" represents.

Now, we should find the total distance traveled. Take the absolute value of -350 (350) and add it to 10, the metres above ground level. This is 360.

We already know the rate of travel; 6m/min. All we have to do now is divide the total distance (360) by the rate of travel (6)!

360 ÷ 6 = 60

So, it took 60 minutes, or one hour, for the elevator to travel down the shaft!

Hope this helps!

Help me plz I can’t figure it out
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

m = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The context is very important, the 'm' represents the minutes late the parents are and from this we can eliminate some options :

- The last one because then a parent would drop their child off earlier

- The first one and the third one because it is too long
