If SSR is 2592 and SSE is 608, then A. the standard error would be large. B. the coefficient of determination is .23. C. the slope is likely to be insignificant. D. the coefficient of determination is .81.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. the coefficient of determination is .81.

Step-by-step explanation:

SST = SSE + SSR

where

SST is the summation of square total

SSE is the summation of squared error estimate = 608

SSR is the summation of square of residual = 2593

with these in mind we put the values into the formula

= 2592 + 608

=3200

Coefficient of determination = SSR/SST

= 2592/3200

= 0.81

Therefore option D is the correct answer to the question.

Answer:

Find a common denominator on the right side of the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation before the problem is

X² + b/a(x) + (b/2a)²= -c/a + b²/4a²

The next step in solving the above equation is to fibd tge common denominator on the right side of the equation.

X² + b/a(x) + (b/2a)²= -c/a + b²/4a²

X² + b/a(x) + (b/2a)²= -4ac/4a² + b²/4a²

X² + b/a(x) + (b/2a)²=( b²-4ac)/4a²

The right side of the equation now has a common denominator

The next step is to factorize the left side of the equation.

(X+b/2a)²= ( b²-4ac)/4a²

Squaring both sides

X+b/2a= √(b²-4ac)/√4a²

Final equation

X=( -b+√(b²-4ac))/2a

Or

X=( -b-√(b²-4ac))/2a

2000 people attended a baseball game. 1300 of the people attending supported the home team, while 700 supported the visiting team. What percentage of people attending supported the home team?

Answers

Answer:

Percentage of home team supporters =65%

Percentage of visiting team supporters =35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total attendees=2,000 people

Home team supporters=1,300

Visiting team supporters=700

What percentage of people attending supported the home team?

Percentage of people attending who supported the home team = home team supporters / total attendees × 100

=1,300/2,000 × 100

=0.65 × 100

=65%

Visiting team supporters = visiting team supporters / total attendees

× 100

=700/2000 × 100

=0.35 × 100

=35%

Alternatively,

Visiting team supporters = percentage of total attendees - percentage of home team supporters

=100% - 65%

=35%

While walking from the car into your dormitory you dropped your engagement ring somewhere in the snow. The path is 30 feet long. You are distraught because the density of its location seems to be constant along this 30-foot route. a) What is the probability that the ring is within 12 feet of your car

Answers

Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

we are required to find the probability that the ring is within 12 meters from nthe car.

we start by defining a random variable x to be the distance from the car. the car is the starting point.

x follows a normal distribution (0,30)

[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{30}[/tex]

[tex]0<x<30[/tex]

probabilty of x ≤ 12

= [tex]\int\limits^a_ b{\frac{1}{30} } \, dx[/tex]

a = 12

b = 0

[tex]\frac{1}{30} *(12-0)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{30} = 0.4[/tex]

therefore 0.4 is the probability that the ring is within 12 feet of your car.

A box contain 12 balls in which 4 are white 3 are blue and 5 are red.3 balls are drawn at random from the box.find the chance that all three are selected​

Answers

Answer:

3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we have the following information

Total number of balls = 12

White balls = 4

Blue balls = 3

Red balls = 5

We are to find the chance of probability that if we select 3 balls, all the three are selected.

Hence,

Probability ( all the three balls are selected) = P(White ball) × P(Blue ball) × P( Red ball)

Probability ( all the three balls are selected) = 4/12 × 3/11 × 5/10

= 60/1320

= 1/22

The number of ways by which we can selected all the three balls is a total of 6 ways:

WBR = White, Blue, Red

WRB = White, Red, Blue

RBW = Red, Blue, White

RWB = Red, White, Blue

BRW = Blue, Red, White

BWR = Blue, White, Red

Therefore, the chance that all three are selected :

1/22 × 6 ways = 6/22 = 3/11

Question Help M Message instructor

Answers

Answer:

a)2/7

b)1/2

c)9/14

d)6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The jar contains 4 red marbles, numbered 1 to 4 which means

Red marbles = (R1) , (R2) , (R3) , (R4)

It also contains 10 blue marbles numbered 1 to 10 which means

Blue marbles = (B1) , (B2) , (B3) , (B4) , (B5) , (B6) , (B7) , (B8) , (B9) , (B10) .

We can calculate total marbles = 4red +10 blues

=14marbled

Therefore, total marbles= 14

The marbles that has even number = (R2) , (R4) ,(B2) , (B4) , (B6) , (B8) , (B10) =7

Total number of Blue marbles = 10

Blue and even marbles = 5

(a) The marble is red

P(The marble is red)=total number of red marbles/Total number of marbles

=4/14

=2/7

(b) The marble is odd-numbered

Blue marbles with odd number= (B1) , (B3) , (B5) , (B7) , (B9) ,

Red marbles with odd number = (R1) , (R3)

Number of odd numbered =(5+2)=7

P(marble is odd-numbered )= Number of odd numbered/ Total number of marbles

P(marble is odd-numbered )=7/14

=1/2

(C) The marble is red or odd-numbered?

Total number of red marbles = 14

Number of red and odd marbles = 2

The marbles that has odd number = (R1) , (R3) ,(B1) , (B3) , (B5) , (B7) , (B9) =7

n(red or even )= n(red) + n(odd)- n(red and odd)

=4+7-2

=9

P(red or odd numbered)= (number of red or odd)/(total number of the marble)

= 9/14

(d) The marble is blue or even-numbered?

Number of Blue and even marbles = 5

Total number of Blue marbles = 10

Number of blue that are even= 5

The marbles that has even number = (R2) , (R4) ,(B2) , (B4) , (B6) , (B8) , (B10)

=7

n(Blue or even )= n(Blue) + n(even)- n(Blue and even)

= 10+7-5 =12

Now , the probability the marble is blue or even numbered can be calculated as

P(blue or even numbered)= (number of Blue or even)/(total number of the marble)

= 12/14

= 6/7

What is the area of a triangle?

The entire space filled by a triangle's three sides in a two-dimensional plane is defined as its area.

The fundamental formula for calculating the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 b h.

The area of the shaded part = area of the rectangle -  area of the triangle

The area of the shaded part = 14 × 10 - (1/2) × 8 × 10

The area of the shaded part = 140 - 80/2

The area of the shaded part = 140 - 40

Apply the subtraction operation, and we get

The area of the shaded part = 100 meters²

Thus, the area of the given shaded part of the rectangle is 100 square meters.

The expression = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

Value of the expression = 4 (when y is 20)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient simply means the result you get when you divide two numbers. Thus, dividend (the numerator) ÷ divisor (the denominator) = quotient.

From the information given to us here,

the dividend = 40

the divisor = y - 16

The quotient = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

There, the expression would be [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

Find the value of the expression when y = 20.

Plug in 20 for y in the expression and evaluate.

[tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{40}{20 - 16} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{40}{4} = 10 [/tex]

The value of the expression, when y is 20, is 4.

b. What is the probability that the sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is greater than 0.025?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = 0.00354[/tex]  

b

  [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population proportion is  [tex]p = 0.10[/tex]

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 100[/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

       [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{ p (1 - p )}{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{ 0.10 (1 - 0.10 )}{100} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]SE =0.03[/tex]

The sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is between 0.172 and 0.178

   [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (\frac{ 0.172 - 0.10}{0.03} < \frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} < \frac{ 0.178 - 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

  Generally  [tex]\frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of X )[/tex]

    [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (\frac{ 0.172 - 0.10}{0.03} <Z < \frac{ 0.178 - 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

    [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (2.4 <Z < 2.6 )[/tex]

   [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P(Z < 2.6 ) - P (Z < 2.4 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

      [tex]P(Z < 2.6 ) = 0.99534[/tex]

     [tex]P(Z < 2.4 ) = 0.9918[/tex]

[tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) =0.99534 - 0.9918[/tex]  

 [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = 0.00354[/tex]  

the probability that the sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is greater than 0.025 is mathematically evaluated as

        [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (\frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} > \frac{ 0.0025- 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

        [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (Z > -2.5 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

        [tex]P (Z > -2.5 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

Thus

      [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (Z > -2.5 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

surface of the water. Cam is 4.2 meters above Ben. What is Cam's
position relative to the surface of the water?

Answers

Answer: Cam is 11.6 meters below the surface of the water

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

Explanation:

Check out the diagram below.

Draw a vertical number line with 0 at the center. The positive values are above it, while the negative values are below it.

Between -15 and -16, closer to -16, plot the value -15.8 to indicate Ben's position. I have done so as the point B.

We move 4.2 units up to arrive at Cam's position

-15.8 + 4.2 = -11.6

So Cam is 11.6 meters below the surface of the water.

There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is not equal to 88.9.

Answers

Answer:

There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is not equal to 88.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following hypothesis below;

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 88.9      {means that the population mean is equal to 88.9}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 88.9     {means that the population mean is different from 88.9}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;

                             T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~  [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = 81.3

             s = sample standard deviation = 13.4

            n = sample size = 7

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{81.3-88.9}{\frac{13.4}{\sqrt{7} } }[/tex]   ~ [tex]t_6[/tex]

                                     =  -1.501

The value of t-test statistics is -1.501.

Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

                    P-value = P([tex]t_6[/tex] < -1.501) = 0.094

Since the P-value of our test statistics is more than the level of significance as 0.094 > 0.01, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will not fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the population mean is equal to 88.9.

x-values: 2, 3/y-values: 10, 15---[tex]\frac{15-10}{3-2}[/tex]=5/1=5

x-values: 3, 4/y-vaues: 15, 20---[tex]\frac{20-15}{4-3}[/tex]=5/1=5

x-values: 4, 5/y-values: 20, 25---[tex]\frac{25-20}{5-4}[/tex]=5/1=5

The slope for each change in points is 5, which means that this table represents a linear function.

The only table that represents a linear function is; Table 1

Linear function

A linear function is one that has the same slope for every coordinate point.

Looking at the tables, the one with same slope for all points is table 1 and we will prove that as follows;

At x = 1, y = 5 and;

Slope = 5/1 = 5

At x = 2; y = 10 and;

Slope = 10/2 = 5

At x = 3, y = 15 and;

Slope = 15/3 = 5

At x = 4, y = 20 and;

Slope = 20/4 = 5

At x = 5, y = 25 and;

slope = 25/5 = 5

In conclusion, only table 1 represents a linear function.

Find the union and interesection of each of the following A={3,6,9,12}, B ={6,8,9}

Answers

Answer:

Hello,

The answer would be,

A union B = {3,6,9,12}

and A intersection B= {6,9}

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{ A\ union \ B = \{3,6,8,9,12\}}[/tex]

[tex]\huge\boxed{A\ intersection \ B = \{6,9\}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {3,6,9,12}

B = {6,8,9}

A∪B = {3,6,9,12} ∪ { 6,8,9}   [Union means all of the elements should be included in the set of A∪B]

=> A∪B = {3,6,8,9,12}

Now,

A∩B = {3,6,9,12} ∩ {6,8,9}  [Intersection means common elements of the set]

=> A∩B = {6,9}

Reducing scrap of 4-foot planks of hardwood is an important factor in reducing cost at a wood-floor manufacturing company. Accordingly, engineers at Lumberworks are investigating a potential new cutting method involving lateral sawing that may reduce the scrap rate. To examine its viability, two independent, random, representative samples of planks were examined. One sample contained 200 planks which were sawed using the old method. The other sample contained 400 planks which were sawed using the new method. Sixty-two of the 200 planks were scrapped under the old method of sawing, whereas 36 of the 400 planks were scrapped under the new method.

Required:
a. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the difference between the population scrap rates between the old and new methods, respectively.
b. Write the null and alternative hypotheses to test for differences in the population scrap rates between the old and new cutting methods, respectively.
c. Using the part a results, can we conclude at the 10% significance level that the scrap rate of the new method is different than the old method?

Answers

Answer:

The critical value for two tailed test at alpha=0.1 is ± 1.645

The calculated  z= 9.406

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulate the hypotheses as

H0: p1= p2 there is no difference between the population scrap rates between the old and new cutting methods

Ha : p1≠ p2

Choose the significance level ∝= 0.1

The critical value for two tailed test at alpha=0.1 is ± 1.645

The test statistic is

Z = [tex]\frac{p_1- p_2}\sqrt pq(\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2})[/tex]

p1= scrap rate of old method = 62/200=0.31

p2= scrap rate of new method = 36/400= 0.09

p = an estimate of the common scrap rate on the assumption that the two rates are same.

p = n1p1+ n2p2/ n1 + n2

p =200 (0.31) + 400 (0.09) / 600

p= 62+ 36/600= 98/600 =0.1633

now q = 1-p= 1- 0.1633= 0.8367

Thus

z= 0.31- 0.09/ √0.1633*0.8367( 1/200 + 1/400)

z= 0.301/√ 0.13663( 3/400)

z= 0.301/0.0320

z= 9.406

The calculated value of z falls in the critical region therefore we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the 10% significance level that the scrap rate of the new method is different from the old method.
