Arm Span (inches) Height (inches)

Mathematics
1 answer:
gulaghasi [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:The equation of best  fitted line is given as follows

The y  intercept 3.787 represents the  height of that is independent of Arm span.

The height of the person whose arm span is 66 inches is 66.817 inch.

The arm span of a person whose height is 74 inches is 73.52 inch

According to the given data the arm span  and heights are given in inches

Using Microsoft excel we can draw the scatter plot of both the variables such that arm span is on X axis and Height is on Y axis

The  image for the excel work done showing calculations and scatter plot  is attached.

Now we can fit the linear tread line and  to find out the equation of fitted line just tick on the " show equation" line option of trend line fitting

The equation of best  fitted line is given as follows

Slope of line of best fit = 0.955

So we can conclude that height (Y) is related to Arm span according to equation (1)

Equation (1) shows the equation of line of best fit for the given data

The y  intercept 3.787 represents the  height of that is independent of Arm span.

So the height of the person whose arm span is 66 inches is given following

Similarly the arm span of a person whose height is 74 inches

Determine the slope of each line, if any. Identify which of the lines is vertical or horizontal.
lys-0071 [83]

Answers:

  1. slope = 2
  2. slope = -3
  3. slope = 1
  4. slope = 1/4
  5. slope = 1/4

None of the five lines are horizontal or vertical

===============================================

Explanation:

Something like f(x) = 2x-5 is the same as y = 2x-5. This is because y = f(x).

Compare y = 2x-5 with y = mx+b. We see that m = 2 is the slope in this case.

The other four questions are handled the same way.

A horizontal line occurs when the slope is 0. Since none of the slopes are zero, none of the lines are horizontal.

A vertical line equation is of the form x = k, where k is any real number. The y variable is not involved. It is not possible to write a vertical line equation in the form y = mx+b because the slope m is undefined. So none of the given five equations are vertical lines.

Side note: something like y = x+6 is the same as y = 1x+6

In the diagram below AB is parallel to CD what is the value of X?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Answer=72°

In this case, since AB and CD are parallel lines, the angle with 72° and angle x are congruent. Therefore angle x is 72°

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x 2y = 12 and passes through the point (−2, 4)? y = – five-halves
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The answer is

y =  -  \frac{5}{2} x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If two equations are parallel it means that both their gradients are equal. We were given the equation:

5x +  2y = 12

in order to find the gradient of this equation that we are given we have to ensure that it is in its simplest form:

5x + 2y = 12 \\ 2y = 12 - 5x \\  \frac{2y}{2}  =  \frac{12}{2}  -  \frac{5}{2} x \\ y = 6  -  \frac{5}{2} x \: \\ or \: \\ y =   - \frac{5}{2} x + 6

Therefore the gradient of the parallel line with points (-2, 4) is also -5/2

y = mx + c \\ 4 =  - \frac{ 5}{2} ( - 2) + c \\ 4 =  \frac{10}{2}   + c \\ 4 = 5 + c \\ 4 - 5 = c \\

c =  - 1 \\ hence \: the \: equation \: for \: the \: \\  parallel \: line \: is \\  \: y =  -  \frac{5}{2} x  - 1

Jerry has taken a random sample of students and determined the number of electives that each student in his sample took last yea
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<span>The sample proportion of the the students that took fewer than the mean number of electives is given by the number of people who took less that the mean number of electives (i.e. 7.63) divided by the total number of students in the sample (i.e. 19). The total number of people who took less than 7.63 electives is 10. Therefore, the required sample proportion is 10 / 19. </span>
