Answer: y=374.2 -133 x

​Step-by-step explanation: I just did the khan test

Least-squares regression equation

The equation for the least-squares regression line for predicting yyy from xxx is of the form:

\hat{y}=a+bx

y

^

​

=a+bxy, with, hat, on top, equals, a, plus, b, x,

where aaa is the yyy-intercept and bbb is the slope.

Hint #22 / 4

Finding the slope

We can determine the slope as follows:

b=r\left(\dfrac{s_y}{s_x}\right)b=r(

s

x

​

s

y

​

​

)b, equals, r, left parenthesis, start fraction, s, start subscript, y, end subscript, divided by, s, start subscript, x, end subscript, end fraction, right parenthesis

In our case,

b=-0.95\left(\dfrac{42}{0.3}\right)=-133b=−0.95(

0.3

42

​

)=−133b, equals, minus, 0, point, 95, left parenthesis, start fraction, 42, divided by, 0, point, 3, end fraction, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 133

Hint #33 / 4

Finding the yyy-intercept

Because the regression line passes through the point (\bar x, \bar y)(

x

ˉ

,

y

ˉ

​

)left parenthesis, x, with, \bar, on top, comma, y, with, \bar, on top, right parenthesis, we can find the yyy-intercept as follows:

a=\bar y-b\bar xa=

y

−b

ˉ

a, equals, y, with, \bar, on top, minus, b, x, with, \bar, on top

In our case,

a=41.7 +133 (2.5)=374.2a=41.7+133(2.5)=374.2

David swan, biked, and ran in the Camp Race. She biked twice as long as she ran, and swam 15 minutes more than she ran. Her tota
lidiya [134]

Answer:

She biked 40 minutes.She ran 20 minutes.She swam 35 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

since you have 95 minutes for all parts first subtracted 15 from what she swam the you have four equal parts left the time she ram then twice she ran she biked and then the she swam 15 minutes More that she ran so you dived 95-15 which is 80  80/4 is 20 so she ran 20 min so 20 x 2 is 40 for she bike 40 then 20+15 is 35 so 40+20+35=95 an hour an 35 minutes

*WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST*
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$50 and

$30

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1. Principal = $500

Rate = 5%

Time = 2yesrs

Interest = PRT /100

= 500 x 5 x 2 /100

= 5000/100

= $50

Interest = PRT/100

Principal P =$500

Rate = 3%

Time = 2 years

Therefore, interest =

500 x 3 x 2 /100

= 3000/100

= $30

An alloy is composed of nickel, zinc, and copper in a ratio of 7:2:9. How many kilograms of each metal are needed to make 3.6 kg
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Nickel= 1.8 kg

Zinc= 0.4 kg

Copper= 1.8 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

7:2:9

7=nickel

2=zinc

9=copper

7+2+9=18

18×2=36

7×2=14 2×2=4 9×2=18

Divide by 10

14÷10=1.4 4÷10=0.4 18÷10=1.8

1.8+1.4+0.4= 3.6

1.8=nickel

0.4=zinc

1.8=copper
