Answer:

x=16.1

Step-by-step explanation:

open the brackets

-4.5= -0.5x-3.55

Take 3.55 to the other side.

-4.5-3.55 = -8.05

5/10x= -805/100

0.5x= - 8.05 = 16.1

When a dummy variable is included in a multiple regression model, the interpretation of the estimated slope coefficient does not make any sense anymore.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: b. False

Step-by-step explanation:

A dummy variable is a numerical variable used in regression analysis to represent values for categorical data by using value 0 (shows absence of particular category) or 1  (shows presence of particular category) .We cannot use categorical data to evaluate the slope coefficient (numerical value) until we convert them into dummies.

Hence, the given statement is absolutely false.

17) Suppose you will perform a test to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a
claim of a linear correlation between two variables. Find the critical value(s) of r given that
n = 10 and a = 0.05.
A) r= 10.666
B) r= +0.765
C) r= +0.632
D) r= 0.632​

Answers

Answer: C.  ±0.632.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Sample size : n= 10

Significance level : [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]

Test to check determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a

claim of a linear correlation between two variables is a two tailed test.

Degree of freedom(df) = n- 2=8

Now , by the correlation coefficient(r) table ,

The critical r value corresponding to df = 8 and Significance level = 0.025  (0.05/2) is ±0.632.

Hence, the correct option is C.  ±0.632.

Alex wants to sew a pillow in the shape below. How many square yards of fabric are needed to sew the pillow? Fabric is only sold in increments of ¼ yard.

Answers

The shape is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, the diameter of the inner semi - circle is 0.5 yards while the length of each side of the pillow is 0.2 yards.

Thus, for us to find the length of the seam which is along the edges of the pillow, we will calculate the perimeter of the outer semicircle, then add the perimeter of the inner semicircle and also add the sides too.

Now, due to the fact that the length of the sides of the pillow are 0.2 yards each, the diameter of the outer circle would be;

0.5 + 0.2 + 0.2 = 0.9 yards. So, the perimeter of the outer semicircle is,

P0 = πd/2 = π × 0.9/2 =0.45π yds

The perimeter of the inner semicircle would be given as;

PI = πd/2 = π × 0.5/2 =0.25π yds.

Thus, we can calculate the total perimeter of the pillow as;

PT = P0 + PI + 0.2 + 0.2

PT = 0.45π + 0.25π + 0.2 + 0.2

PT ≈ 2.6 yards

Alex will need 2.6 yds

A pharmacy has purchased 550 products over a period of 3 months. If their average inventory was 235 products in a 3 month period what was their inventory turnover rate for this period

Answers

Answer:

2.34

Step-by-step explanation:

A pharmacy purchased 550 products over a period of 3 months

The average inventory was 235 products during the period of 3 months

Therefore, the inventory turnover rate for this period can be calculated as follows

= 550/235

= 2.34

Hence the inventory turnover rate for this period is 2.34

Jayden, who burns 345 calories in 45 min
while hiking is preparing for a 6 hour hike.
He uses a special supplement beverage
pack that provides water, needed
electrolytes, and 310 calories. The goal is to
replace roughly 1/3 of the calories burned
while carrying as light a load as possible.
How many packs should he take?

Answers

I think that she should bring three packs. 6 hours=360 minutes. 360/45=8. 345x8=2760. 2760/3=920 and 310x3=930. :)

This question is solved using proportions.

First, we find how many calories he will burn in the hike.Then, we find how many calories he will need to replace, and the number of packs needed.

Doing this, we get that he should take 3 packs.

How many calories he burns in the hike?

In 45 minutes, he burns 345 calories. How many calories in 6*60 = 360 minutes?

45 minutes - 345 calories

360 minutes - x calories

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]45x = 345*360[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{345*360}{45}[/tex]

[tex]x = 2760[/tex]

He burns 2760 calories in the hike.

How many calories he wants to replace?

Roughly 1/3, so he have to find one third of 2760, that is:

[tex]\frac{2760}{3} = 920[/tex]

How many packs?

One pack recovers 310 calories, how many packs for 920 calories?

1 pack - 310 calories

x packs - 920 calories

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]310x = 920[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{920}{310}[/tex]

[tex]x = 2.97[/tex]

Rounding up, he should take 3 packs.

If the function Q(t)=4e-0.00938t models the quantity (in kg) of an element in a storage unit after t years, how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg? Round to the nearest year.

Answers

Answer:

105 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

Q(t) = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Q = Quantity in kilogram of an element in a storage unit after t years

how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg

Inputting Q = 1.5kg into the equation:

1.5 = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Divide both sides by 4

(1.5 / 4) = (4e^(-0.00938t) / 4)

0.375 = e^(-0.00938t)

Take the ln of both sides

In(0.375) = In(e^(-0.00938t))

−0.980829 = -0.00938t

Divide both sides by 0.00938

0.00938t / 0.00938 = 0.980829 /0.00938

t = 104.56599

When t = 104.56599 years , the quantity in kilogram of the element in storage will be exactly 1.5kg

Therefore, when t = 105 years, the quantity of element in storage will be less than 1.5kg

5 = Brian

→ Divide the total tip by the total sum of the ratio's

£78.40 ÷ ( 2 + 1 + 5 ) ⇔ £78.40 ÷ 8 = £9.80

→ Now we know one part is equal to £9.80 we multiply this number by each of the associated ratio's

Paul = £9.80 × 2 ⇔ £19.60

Colin = £9.80 × 1 ⇔ £9.80

Brian = £9.80 × 5 ⇔ £49

£49 - £9.80 = £39.20

If 6x +3= 2x+ 19, then x =

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3 = 2x + 19  ------ subtract 3 both sides

6x + 3 - 3 = 2x + 19 - 3   simplify

6x = 2x + 16         ------ subtract 2x both sides

6x - 2x = 2x + 16 - 2x      simplify

4x = 16

x = 16 / 4

x = 4

Answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation: If the variable appears on both sides of the equation, we put the variables together on one side of the equation and the numbers together on the other side of the equation.

So let's put our variables on the left side by first subtracting

2x from both sides of the equation to get 4x + 3 = 19.

Next, we subtract 3 from both sides to get 4x = 16.

Finally, we divide both sides by 4 to get x = 4.

B. ∠A, ∠B, ∠C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw a model with AB as the shortest line and BC as the longest line.

∠A connects the two shortest lines, making it the largest angle.

∠B connects the shortest and the longest lines, making it the second largest angle.

∠C connects the two longest lines, making it the smallest angle.

Answer:

A > B > C

Step-by-step explanation:

Ypu probably wouldn't think about it unless someone pointed it out, but if you look at a triangle of any type you can see that the sizes of the sides are directly related to the sizes of the angles opposed to them.

By this I mean, the largest side will have the largest angle across from it and the smallest side will have the smallest angle.

Based off of my drawing, it looks like the order is angle A, then B, then, and then C.

Let one of those even numbers be x, Then other even number would be x + 2.

According to question,

⇛ Their reciprocal add upto 3/4

So, we can write it as,

⇛ 1/x + 1/x + 2 = 3/4

⇛ x + 2 + x / x(x + 2) = 3/4

⇛ 2x + 2 / x² + 2x = 3/4

Cross multiplying,

⇛ 3(x² + 2x) = 4(2x + 2)

⇛ 3x² + 6x = 8x + 8

⇛ 3x² - 2x - 8 = 0

⇛ 3x² - 6x + 4x - 8 = 0

⇛ 3x(x - 2) + 4(x - 2) = 0

⇛ (3x + 4)(x - 2) = 0

Then, x = -4/3 or 2

☃️ It can't be -4/3 because it is fraction and negative number. So, x = 2

Then, x + 2 = 4

✤ So, The even numbers are 2 and 4.

This year Alex’s age is 1/6 of his dads. Four years later, Alex’s age is 1/4 of his dads. How old is Alex and his dad this year?

Answers

Answer:

This year:

Alex: 6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

a = d/6

a+4 = (d+4)/4

a = Alex´s actual age  

d = actual age of the dad

d/6 + 4 = (d+4)/4

4{(d/6) + 4} = d+4

4*d/6 + 4*4 = d+4

4d/6 + 16 = d + 4

4d/6 = d + 4 - 16

4d = (d-12)*6

4d  = 6*d +6*-12

4d = 6d - 72

4d - 6d = -72

-2d = -72

d = -72/-2

d = 36

a = d/6

a = 36/6

a = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth function is given by :-

As per given ,

A= 242

To find : t when y= 300.

Put all the values in (i)

[tex]300=242(1+0.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{300}{242}=(1.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.23967=(1.12)^x[/tex]
