We expect that students who do well on the midterm exam in a course will usually also do well on the final exam. Gary Smith of P

omona College looked at the exam scores of all 346 students who took his statistics class over a 10-year period. The least-squares line for predicting final-exam score from mid-term exam score was γ=46.6 + 0.41x.
Octavio scores 10 points above the clas mean on the midterm. How many points above the class mean do you predict that he will score on the final. (Hint: what is the predicted final-exam score for the class mean midterm score of x-bar?) This is an example of regression to the mean, the phenomenon that gave "regression" its name: students who do well on the midterm will on average do less well on the final, but still above the class mean.)

Using the model equation, the predicted mean score on the final given a score of <em>10 points above the class mean</em> in the mid term exam is 50.7

<u>The Least - Square Regression equation which models the relationship between midterm and final exam score is</u> :

  • γ=46.6 + 0.41x

x = 10 points ; <u>substitute the value of x = 10 into the regression equation</u> ;

γ=46.6 + 0.41(10)

γ=46.6 + 4.1

γ = 50.7

The <em>number of points above the mean</em> he'll score in the final exam is predicted to be 50.7

Match each trigonometric function with its Unit Circle definition. Note that Angle A is correctly oriented for the Unit Circle d
PtichkaEL [24]
The first diagram below shows a circle with a radius of 1 (unit circle). The circle is drawn on a Cartesian graph with (0,0) as the center of the circle.

From the second diagram, we can determine the value of sin(Θ) = y
and cos(Θ) = x

We can further deduce that
tan(Θ) = \frac{y}{x}
sec(Θ) = \frac{1}{cos(Θ)} = \frac{1}{x}
cosec(Θ) = \frac{1}{sin(Θ)} = \frac{1}{y}
cot(Θ) = \frac{cos(Θ)}{sin(Θ)} = \frac{x}{y}

Choose two positive integers a and b, making sure that a&lt;5 and b&gt;80 . The width of a rectangular computer screen is a inch
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Height = H

Width = H + a

Area = Height x Width

b = H * (H + a)

b = H^{2} + aH

H^{2} + aH > 80

H^{2} + aH - 80 > 0

a<5 means 'a' can be a = 1, 2, 3, 4

Solving for H for each option of 'a' will give values of 'H' using the quadratic formula below

H = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

As 'a' and 'b' must be positive integers, H and W must be positive integers as well,

a = 1, H = 8.46, H = -9.46

a = 2, H = 8, H = -10

a = 3, H = 7.57, H = -10.57

a = 4, H = 7.17, H = -11.17

Based on above possible answers:

a=2, H=8

W = H + a

W = 8 + 2

W = 10

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches
