Parker offers to pay for 5 of his friends to play laser tag, but 3 of them don’t want to play. Parker offers to pay for 5 of his

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find how many friends are playing. This can be found in the equation 5-3. Now you multiply by six to find the cost. If you chose C, that would be incorrect, because the () you would mltilply first (30) and then subtract 3 (27). You can also think of it as finding the cost of how much all of them want to play by using the distributive property, leaving you with 30 - 18, and subtract from there to get 12.

what was the original principal for an 8% simple interest bank account that holds $4340 after 3 years?

strojnjashka [21]

The principal amount is $\$3500$

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given that, simple interest $8\%$ ; $\$4340$ after 3 years

We have to find the principal.

Now, let the principal amount be p.

Then, $\text { Simple Interest }=\frac{p \times 8 \times 3}{100}=\frac{p \times 24}{100}$

Now, we know that, Balance = Principal amount + Simple Interest

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow \$ 4340=p+\frac{24 p}{100}} \\\\ {\rightarrow 4340=p\left(1+\frac{24}{100}\right)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 4340=p \times \frac{100+124}{100}} \\\\ {\rightarrow p=4340 \times \frac{100}{124}} \\\\ {\rightarrow p=35 \times 100} \\\\ {\rightarrow p=3500}\end{array}$

At a recent county fair, you observed that at one stand people's weight was forecasted, and were surprised by the accuracy (with

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a)Slope: $\hat \beta_1 =\frac{7625.9}{1248.9}=6.106$

Intercept: $\hat \beta_o = 157.955 -6.106 (69.686)=-267.548$

b) $r=\frac{7625.9}{\sqrt{[1248.9][94228.8]}}=0.657$

And the determination coeffecient is $r^2 = 0.657^2 =0.432$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and definitions

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"

When we conduct a multiple regression we want to know about the relationship between several independent or predictor variables and a dependent or criterion variable.

n=110, $\sum x_i y_i = \sum (X-\bar X)(Y-\bar Y) =7625.9,\sum x^2_i=\sum (x-\bar x)^2 =1248.9 , sum y^2_i=\sum(y-\bar y)^2 =94228.8$
