The best fit line is given by the equation y = 0.404x - 5.18, where y represents the height of the plant above ground level, and

x represents the number of days since it was planted.
What is the slope of the best fit line? What does the slope of the line mean in this situation? Is it reasonable?

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The line of best fit given:</u>

  • y = 0.404x - 5.18

<u>It is given in the slope-intercept form:</u>

  • y = mx + b, where m- slope, b - y-intercept

The slope is this situation is m = 0.404 cm and it represents the average growth rate of the plant in one day.

It seems reasonable but without means of control it is difficult to trace the growth while still under the ground, during the first 13-14 days.

Assuming that the ratios stay the same, the answer is going to be 6 because the total number of nuts drawn originally was 48, and 9 were cashews. To maintain this ratio when 32 nuts were drawn, the number of cashews will be 6.

Joan pays 456.25 monthly on her mortgage. If her annual insurance premium is 1,560 and her annual real estate tax is 1,890, what
defon
The combined payment is 743.75.

The annual amount of insurance is 1560.  Dividing this by 12 gives us the monthly amount paid:
1560/12 = 130.

The annual real estate taxes are 1890.  Dividing this by 12 gives us the monthly amount paid:
1890/12 = 157.50

We add these to the monthly mortgage payment to find the total amount:
456.25+130+157.50 = 743.75

The number of minutes that Samantha waits to catch the bus is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes. What is the probab
Drupady [299]

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.3 = 30% probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus.

<h3>What is the uniform probability distribution?</h3>

It is a distribution with two bounds, a and b, in which each outcome is equally as likely.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}

In this problem, the time is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes, hence the bounds are a = 0 and b = 15.

The probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus is given by:

P(X < 4.5) = \frac{4.5 - 0}{15 - 0} = 0.3
