Determine whether 6 is a solution of the equation 2x - 5 = 1.

Mathematics
1 answer:
kupik [55]2 years ago

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if x = 6 is a solution, substitute x = 6 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is a solution.

2(6) - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7 ≠ 1

Then x = 6 is not a solution of the equation since a false statement results after replacing x with 6 (B)

An automobile dealer wants to see if there is a relationship between monthly sales and the interest rate. A random sample of 4 m
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a) y=-6.254 x +75.064  

b) r =-0.932

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by r^2 and on this case -0.932^2 =0.8687, so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following dataset:

Monthly Sales (Y)     Interest Rate (X)

       22                               9.2

       20                               7.6

       10                                10.4

       45                                5.3

Part a

And we want a linear model on this way y=mx+b, where m represent the slope and b the intercept. In order to find the slope we have this formula:

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}  

Where:  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}  

With these we can find the sums:  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=278.65-\frac{32.5^2}{4}=14.5875  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=696.9-\frac{32.5*97}{4}=-91.225  

And the slope would be:  

m=\frac{-91.225}{14.5875}=-6.254  

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:  

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{32.5}{4}=8.125  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{97}{4}=24.25  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x=24.25-(-6.254*8.125)=75.064  

So the line would be given by:  

y=-6.254 x +75.064  

Part b

For this case we need to calculate the correlation coefficient given by:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

r=\frac{4(696.9)-(32.5)(97)}{\sqrt{[4(278.65) -(32.5)^2][4(3009) -(97)^2]}}=-0.937  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =-0.932

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by r^2 and on this case -0.932^2 =0.8687, so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.

The probability that an egg on a production line is cracked is 0.01. Two eggs are selected at random from the production line. F
musickatia [10]

Answer:

P(X \geq 1)=1-P(X

P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of craked eggs", on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=2, p=0.01)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And we want to find this probability:

P(x \geq 1)=1-P(X

And we can find the probability:

P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199

A circle with radius 4 inches is inscribed in an equilateral triangle. Find the area of the triangle.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The inscribed circle has its center at the point of intersection of the angle bisectors, which also happen to be the medians. Hence the altitude of the triangle is 3 times the radius, or 12 inches.

The side length of this triangle is 2/√3 times the altitude, so the area is

... Area = (1/2)·b·h = (1/2)·(24/√3 in)·(12 in)

... Area = 48√3 in² ≈ 83.1384 in²
