Answer:
a) response variable
Step-by-step explanation:
The response variable is the variable that depends on other variables such as the independent or explanatory variable, it is the variable that is being tested. The response variable is also called the dependent variable.
In linear regression, the y variable is referred to as the response variable while the x variable is referred to as the explanatory or independent variable.
In this case the y variable is "the number of times they cough in a day" and this variation depends on the x variable "number of cigarettes a person smokes in a day".
The correct answer is 9/14
Answer:
The total amount without tax is $141.57
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the coupon is 10% off, they would only have to pay 90% of what they would before (this is before tax). To find out the total after the coupon you would find 90% of 157.30. (This is the longer but better explainable/showable way)
157.30 / 100 = 1.573 (this is 1%)
1.573 * 90 = 141.57
Therefore the answer is $141.57
Answer:
the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Write these two points as (0, 1) and (-2, 0).
Now, as we go from (-2, 0) to (0, 1), x increases by 2 and y increases by 1. Thus, the slope, m, of the desired line is m = rise / run = 1 / 2.
Then the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1 (since b is already given as (0, 1) )
Answer:
Value of x is 88
Step-by-step explanation:
We have,
Percentage of lentils in the soup = 36% = 0.36
Fraction of the lentils which are green = 
Thus, the amount of green beans in the soup are =
=
= 0.36 × 33.3 = 11.99 ≅ 12.
So, the percentage of the green beans = 12%
The percentage of the original beans in the soup = (100-12)% = 88%
Hence, the value of x is 88.
