Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 133 to 193 cm and

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation representing the relationship between height and weight of a person is:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

Here

y = weight of a person

x = height of a person

The information provided is:

$\bar x=167.90\ cm\\\bar y=81.47\ kg\\r (X, Y) = 0.228\\p-value=0.023\\\alpha =0.05$

The hypothesis to test the significance of the correlation between height and weight is:

H₀: There is no relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ = 0.

Hₐ: There is a relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ ≠ 0.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level, then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

According to information provided:

p-value = 0.023 < α = 0.05

The null hypothesis was rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that there is a relationship between the height and weight.

Compute the weight of an adult male with height, x = 172 cm as follows:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

$=-105+(1.13\times 172)\\=-105+194.36\\=89.36$

Thus, the weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Marcus and Tony work for Lombardo's Pipe and Concrete. Mr. Lombardo is preparing an estimate for a customer. He knows that Marc

vampirchik [111]

Remark
The equation is job1/ time + job2/time = job3/time

Discussion
job one is the time it takes one of the workers to complete the job.
job two is the time it takes the other workers to complete the job
job three is the time it takes to do the job together.

Givens.
Let Marcus's time = m
Let Tony's time be =t
Let their together time = t1

Equation Substitution and solution.
1/m + 1/t = 1/t1
1/6 + 1/4 = 1/t1 The common denominator on the left is 12.
2/12 + 3/12 = 1 / t1
5/12 = 1/t1 Cross multiply.
5*t1 = 12 Divide by 5
t1 = 12/5
t1 = 2 2/5
t1 = 2.4 hours

Cost
1 hour = 43 dollars for labor.
2.4 hours = x dollars for labor.

1*x = 43 * 2.4
x = 103.2 dollars. <<<<< Answer

For which values of p and q, will the following pair of linear equations have infinitely many

Tema [17]

In order to have infinitely many solutions with linear equations/functions, the two equations have to be the same;
In accordance, we can say:
(2p + 7q)x = 4x [1]
(p + 8q)y = 5y [2]
2q - p + 1 = 2 [3]
All we have to do is choose two equations and solve them simultaneously (The simplest ones for what I'm doing and hence the ones I'm going to use are [3] and [2]):
Rearrange in terms of p:
p + 8q = 5 [2]
p = 5 - 8q [2]
p + 2 = 2q + 1 [3]
p = 2q - 1 [3]
Now equate rearranged [2] and [3] and solve for q:
5 - 8q = 2q - 1
10q = 6
q = 6/10 = 3/5 = 0.6

Now, substitute q-value into rearranges equations [2] or [3] to get p:
p = 2(3/5) - 1
p = 6/5 - 1
p = 1/5 = 0.2

U

elena55 [62]

Answer:

option 3, 45

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 9° + 30° + 24° = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle)

3x - 9° + 54° = 180°

3x + 45° = 180°

3x = 180° - 45°

3x = 135°

x = 135/3

x = 45°

therefore, option 3 is the correct option
