Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 operations happening on the left side to x.

1. x is being multiplied by -4.

2. 2/5 is being added to -4x.

If you had a number for x, and you wanted to evaluate the left side, first, you would multiply the value of x by -4. Then you would add 2/5.

To solve an equation or an inequality, you do the opposite operation in the opposite order.

Since the second operation was add 2/5, to solve, you start by doing the opposite of the second operation. That means you subtract 2/5 from both sides.

Answer:

The probability of landing on blue on spinner 1 is 3/8 theoretically. The probability of landing green on green on spinner 1 is 5/8 theoretically. The probability of landing on blue on spinner 2 is 2/6, which is 1/3. The probability of landing on either green or purple on spinner 2 is 3/6, or 1/2. The probability of landing on yellow on spinner 2 is 1/6. The probability of not landing on green on spinner 2 is 4/6, or 2/3. The experimental probability, you have to do, since only you can do that. So glad I can help, but can you please give me brainlist?

A college job placement office collected data about students’ GPAs and the salaries they earned in their first jobs after gradua

frez [133]

Answer:

X is the GPA

Y is the Salary

Standard deviation of X is 0.4

Standard deviation of Y is 8500

E(X)=2.9

E(Y)=47200

We are given that The correlation between the two variables was r = 0.72

a) $y = a+bx$

$b = \frac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})(y_i-\bar{y})}{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2} = \frac{r \times \sqrt{var(X) \times Var(Y)}}{Var(X)} = \frac{0.72 \times \sqrt{0.4^2 \times 8500^2}}{0.4^2} = 15300$

$a=y-bx = 47200-(15300 \times 29) = 2830$

So, slope = 15300

Intercept = 2830

So, equation : $y = 2830+15300x$

b) Your brother just graduated from that college with a GPA of 3.30. He tells you that based on this model the residual for his pay is -$1880. What salary is he earning?

$y = 2830+15300 \times 3.3 = 53320$

Observed salary = Residual + predicted = -1860+53320 = 51440

c)) What proportion of the variation in salaries is explained by variation in GPA?

The proportion of the variation in salaries is explained by variation in GPA = $r^2 = (0.72)^2 =0.5184$
