3x – 5 =-10
6. To solve the equation in the box for the
value of x, Michele started by adding 5 to both
sides. To get the correct answer, what must
Michele do next?
A divide both sides by 10
B. divide both sides by 3
C. multiply both sides by 10
D. multiply both sides by 3

Answers

Answer 1

After adding 5 to both sides what did Michele get? Let's see

[tex]3x-5 + 5 = -10 + 5\\3x= -5[/tex]

If she wants to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] then she needs to have only the variable [tex]x[/tex] on the left hand side. What she must do so that [tex]3x[/tex] becomes just [tex]x[/tex]?  What do you have to do to the number 3 so it becomes a 1? That's right, she must divide by 3!

So, after dividing both sides by 3:

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-10}{3} \\\\\boxed{x=\frac{-10}{3}}[/tex]

Thus, the correct answer is letter B

A statistics teacher was interested in the relationship between the number of days students waited to start a project and the score that project received (out of 100 points). Information was collected on several students and was used to obtain the regression equation ŷ = –3.64x + 96.5, where x represents the number of procrastination days and ŷ is the predicted grade. Which statement best describes the meaning of the slope of the regression line?

A:For each increase in number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.
B;For each increase in number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 96.5 points.
C;For each increase in grade by 1 point, the predicted number of procrastination days decreases by 96.5 days.
D:For each increase in grade by 1 point, the predicted number of procrastination days decreases by 3.64 days.

Answers

Answer:

A: For each increase in the number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a Regression Line

A straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope describes how fast and in what direction the graph goes when x changes values.

If m is positive, increments in x imply increments in y.

If m is negative, increments in x imply decrements in y.

The regression line is:

ŷ = –3.64x + 96.5

Where:

x = the number of procrastination days

ŷ = the predicted grade

We can say the slope is m=-3.64. This means that:

A: For each increase in the number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.

Pretty sure the guy above me is right, although I have not checked on edge.

(A) For each increase in number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.

Solution:

The given rate amount is the speed. Speed is the distance divided by the time.

It is mathematically expressed as:

What is the slope?
What is the y intercept?
What is the equation of the line written in slope-intercept from?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move along the graph from x = 2 to x = 3 (a change of 1), y decreases from y = 100 to y = 0 (a change of -100).  Thus, the slope of this line is

m = rise / run = -100/1 = -100.

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis, and is (0, 200).

The equation of this line in slope-intercept form is  y = -100x + 200

From the equation, we have the following observations.

Adults in Turkey have mean caloric intake of 3500 calories per day (Wikipedia) with a standard deviation of 500 calories. A sample of 25 Ankara University students has an average intake of 3400 calories per day. Is this enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day? Assume the distribution is normal.
A. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
B. What is the value of the test statistic?
C. Specify the rejection region?
D. State the conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) t = -1

C) the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) Conclusion is that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 3500

Population standard deviation; σ = 500

Sample mean; x¯ = 3400

Sample size; n = 25

We want to find enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Thus, the hypothesis is defined as;

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) sample size is less than 30, thus we will use a t-test.

Formula for the test statistic is;

t = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

t = (3400 - 3500)/(500/√25)

t = -100/(500/5)

t = -1

C) since the sample is small, let's assume a significance level of 0.05.

Thus,the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) from online p-value from t-score calculator attached using;

t = - 1; DF = 25 - 1 = 24; significance level = 0.05 and two tailed hypothesis, we have;

p-value ≈ 0.3273

This is greater than the significance value of 0.05.

Thus, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Percentage of all teachers the works in summer  = 85%

Number of teachers sampled  = 6 teachers

Unknown:

The probability that they all work in summer  = ?

Solution:

Now, to solve this problem, let us find the number of teachers that works in summer from the given size;

    Number of teachers = 85% x 6  = 5.1;

  Since it is not possible to have 5.1 people, the number of teachers will be 5
