Bighorn sheep are beautiful wild animals found throughout the western United States. Data for this problem are based on information taken from The Desert Bighorn, edited by Monson and Sumner 9University of Arizona Press). Let x be the age of a bighorn sheep (in years), and let y be the mortality rate (percent that die) for this age group. For example, x = 1, y = 14 means that 14% of the bighorn sheep between 1 and 2 years old died. A random sample of Arizona bighorn sheep gave the following information:
x 1 2 3 4 5
y 14 18.9 14.4 19.6 20.0
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
(a) Draw a scatter diagram.
(b) Find the equation of the least-squares line, and plot the line on the scatter diagram of part (a).
(c) Find the correlation coefficient r. Find the coefficient of determination . What percentage of variation in y is explained by the variation in x and the least squares model?
Answers
Answer:
The answer and explanation are below
Step-by-step explanation:
i followed the data that was given in the question.
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
a.) please refer to the attachment for the scatter diagram. Y was plotted against X.
b. The equation is given as:
Y = b₁ + b₀X
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
b₁ = n∑xy - (∑x)(∑y)/n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
b₁ = 5 x 275 - 15 x 87.3/5 x 55 - (15²)
= 1375-1309.5/275-225
= 65.5/50
= 1.31
b₀ = 87.3/5 - 1.31(15/5)
= 87.3/5 - 1.31x3
= 13.53
the regression line is
Y = 13.53 + 1.31X
please refer to the attachment for the diagram for the regression line.
c. we are required to find r.
r = n∑XY - (∑X)(∑Y)/√n∑X²-(∑X)² × √n∑y²-(∑y)²
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
inserting these values:
r = 5 x 275-(15)(87.3)/√275-225 x √7848.85 - 7621.29
= 65.5/106.69
= 0.6139
Coefficient of determination = r²
r = 0.6139
r² = 0.3769 = 37.69%
Therefore 37.69% variation in y is explained by variation in x and the least square model.

Point A = (4,2)
Origin point = (0,0)
Find:
Slope of the tangent line (m)
Computation:
Slope of the tangent line (m) = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

A caplet contains 325 mg of medication. How many caplets contain 975 mg of medication?
Answers
Answer:
3 capletsStep-by-step explanation:
Given 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication, to calculate the number of caplet 975mg of medication will contain, we will follow the steps below;
Let 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication
x caplet = 975 mg of medication
Cross multiply
325 * x = 1 * 975
325x = 975
Divide both sides by 325
325x/325 = 975/325
x = 3
Hence 3 caplets contains 975 mg of medication.
Find the equation of the line passing through the pair points (-8,6) (-9,-9). The equation of the line in the form is Ax+By=C.
Answers
Answer:
15x - y = - 126
Step-by-step explanation:
will make it simple and short
first we need to find the slope (m) first in order to get the equation
given: (-8,6) (-9,-9)
y2 - y1 -9 - 6
Slope = m = ----------- = ------------------ = 15
-x2 - x1 -9 - (-8)
so the equation of the line using point (-8,6) and slope 15 is y - 6 = 15( x + 8)
y - 6 = 15x + 120
using the form equation Ax + By = C, 15x - y = -120-6
therefore... 15x - y = - 126 is the answer

Answers
Answer:
Approximately 38.56 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
So, from the picture, we want to find x.
To do this, we can use the Law of Cosines. We simply need to find the angle between the two sides and then plug them into the Law of Cosines. First, the Law of Cosines is:
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)\\[/tex]
The c in this equation is our x, and the C is the angle we need to find.
From the picture, you can see that angle C is the sum of the red and blue angles.
From a bearing of 190 degrees, we can determine that the red angle measures 10 degrees. Then by alternate interior angles, the other red angle must also measure 10 degrees.
From a bearing of 318 degrees, the remaining 48 degrees is outside the triangle. However, we have a complementary angle, so we can find the angle inside the triangle by subtracting in into 90. Therefore, the blue angle inside is 90-48=42 degrees.
Therefore, angle C is 42+10 which equals 52 degrees. Now we can plug this into our formula:
[tex]x^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)\\\\x^2=(18.9)^2+(47.2)^2-2(18.9)(47.2)\cos(52)\\x=\sqrt{(18.9)^2+(47.2)^2-2(18.9)(47.2)\cos(52)}\\\text{Use a Calculator}\\x\approx38.5566 \text{ km}[/tex]

Cases Prudence has a special (cubic) die. The values on its face are the integers from 1 to 6, but they are not arranged ae in a normal die. When Prudence first tosses the die, the sum of the values on the four side faces is 15. In her second toss, the sum of these values is 12. Find what value appears in the face opposite 6 on Prudence’s special die. (Hint: what are possible values for the top and bottom face when the sum of the side faces is 12).
Answers
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we know that:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +5 +6 = 21
Now, which two numbers we should take out in order to have 15?
we can remove the 2 and the 4, or the 1 and the 5.
so here we have two possibilities, 2 and 4 are opposite, or 1 and 5 are opposite (they are located in opposite faces of the die)
in the other arrange, we have that removing two numbers we should get 12.
in order to reach 12, we should remove two numbers that add 9 together.
those can be 4 and 5, or 6 and 3.
Now, notice that in the first restriction we have that:
Or 2 and 4 are opposite,
or 1 and 5 are opposite.
So 4 and 5 can never be opposite, so we should have that 6 and 3 are opposite.
Then we can affirm that the value that appears in the face opposite to the 6, is the 3.

the box plots shows the price for two different brands of shoes
Answers
Answer:
A. The interquartile range (IQR) for brand A, $10, is less than the IQR for brand B, $25.
Step-by-step explanation:
The most appropriate measure that can be used to compare the SPREAD of the data of the 2 brands plotted on a box plot, is the Interquartile range (IQR).
Interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1.
Q3 is the value which lies at the end of the rectangular box, while the Q1 lies at the beginning of the box.
From the box plot given,
IQR for brand A = 80 - 70 = $10
IQR for brand B = 50 - 25 = $25
Therefore, the correct option is "A. The interquartile range (IQR) for brand A, $10, is less than the IQR for brand B, $25."

Given:
Two lines:
[tex]3x - 4y + 5 = 0 \\2x + 3y -1 = 0[/tex]
To find:
Angle between the two lines = ?
Solution:
Acute Angle between two lines can be found by using the below formula:
[tex]tan \theta = |\dfrac{(m_1 - m_2)}{ (1 + m_1m_2)}|[/tex]
Where [tex]\theta[/tex] is the acute angle between two lines.
[tex]m_1, m_2[/tex] are the slopes of two lines.
Slope of a line represented by [tex]ax+by+c=0[/tex] is given as:
[tex]m = -\dfrac{a}{b }[/tex]
So,
[tex]m_1 = -\dfrac{3}{- 4} = \dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]m_2 = -\dfrac{2}{ 3}[/tex]
Putting the values in the formula:
[tex]tan \theta = |\dfrac{(\dfrac{3}{4}- (-\dfrac{2}{3}))}{ (1 + \dfrac{3}{4}\times (-\dfrac{2}{3 }))}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = |\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{3}}{ (1 -\dfrac{1}{2})}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = |\dfrac{\dfrac{17}{12}}{ \dfrac{1}{2}}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = \dfrac{17}{6}\\\Rightarrow \theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{17}{6})\\\Rightarrow \theta = \bold{70.69^\circ}[/tex]

Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal to each other.
AB = CD = Length
Let the length be [tex]l[/tex] m.
BC = DA = Width = 4 m
Perimeter of a closed image is equal to the sum of all the sides of the image.
So, perimeter of ABCD:

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the Mean Value Theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x2 − 3x + 2, [0, 2]
Answers
Answer:
Yes , it satisfies the hypothesis and we can conclude that c = 1 is an element of [0,2]
c = 1 ∈ [0,2]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2 -3x + 2, [0, 2][/tex]
which is read as the function of x = 4x² - 3x + 2 along the interval [0,2]
Differentiating the function with respect to x is;
f(x) = 8x - 3
Using the Mean value theorem to see if the function satisfies it, we have:
[tex]f'c = \dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{f(2)-f(0)}{2-0}[/tex]
since the polynomial function is differentiated in [0,2]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(4(2)^2-3(2)+2)-(4(0)^2-3(0)+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(4(4)-3(2)+2)-(4(0)-3(0)+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(16-6+2)-(0-0+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(12)-(2)}{2}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{10}{2}[/tex]
8c -3 = 5
8c = 5+3
8c = 8
c = 8/8
c = 1
Therefore, we can conclude that c = 1 is an element of [0,2]
c = 1 ∈ [0,2]
