An engineer measures the peak current (in microamps) when a solution containing an amount of nickel (in parts per 106 ) is added

to a buffer. The experiment was repeated for eleven different values of nickel solutions. A scatterplot showing the data is given below: Suppose a regression line was added to the plot above. If an additional measurement had been taken with the nickel of 62 parts per 106 and a peak current of 0.38 microamps, adding this observation would: A. decrease the intercept, decrease the slope. B. decrease the intercept, increase the slope. C. increase the intercept, increase the slope. D. increase the intercept, decrease the slope.

Answer:

B. decrease the intercept, increase the slope

Step-by-step explanation:

A slope indicates the steepness of a line while the intercept points the location where it intercepts its axis. The linear relationship between can be defined using the intercept and the slope. Both concepts are used to estimate the average range of change. Since we are trying to add a peak current value of 0.38 which is lesser than the average, the intercept of the graph would therefore decrease and the slope increase.

The velocity v of blood that flows in a blood vessel with radius r and length ℓ at a distance r from the central axis is v(r) =
pogonyaev
v(r)=4P\eta\ell(R^2-r^2)

(assuming R is the radius of the vessel, and that 0\le r\le R)

The average velocity of the blood is given by

\displaystyle\frac1{R-0}\int_{r=0}^{r=R}v(r)\,\mathrm dr
=\displaystyle\frac{4P\eta\ell}R\int_{r=0}^{r=R}(R^2-r^2)\,\mathrm dr
=\dfrac{4P\eta\ell}R\left(\dfrac23R^3\right)
=\dfrac{8P\eta\ell}3R^2

According to the Rational Root Theorem, what are all the potential rational roots of f(x) = 15x11 – 6x8 + x3 – 4x + 3?
scoundrel [369]

we have

f(x) = 15x^{11} -6x^{8} + x^{3} - 4x + 3

we know that

<u>The Rational Root Theorem</u> states that when a root 'x' is written as a fraction in lowest terms

x=\frac{p}{q}

p is an integer factor of the constant term, and q is an integer factor of the coefficient of the first monomial.

So

in this problem

the constant term is equal to 3

and the first monomial is equal to 15x^{11} -----> coefficient is 15

So

possible values of p are 1, and\ 3

possible values of q are 1, 3, 5, and\ 15

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The all potential rational roots of f(x) are

(+/-)\frac{1}{15},(+/-)\frac{1}{5},(+/-)\frac{1}{3},(+/-)\frac{3}{5},(+/-)1,(+/-)3

The number of bagels sold daily for two bakeries is shown in the table. Bakery A Bakery B 53 34 52 40 50 36 48 38 53 41 47 44 55
IrinaK [193]
You are given the number of bagels sold daily for bakeries A and B and are shown in the table above. Based on the above data, it is better to describe the centers of distribution in terms of the mean than the median. This is because all of the data from bakery A and B have values that are near the average and no data sample have possible outliers. For instance,

bakery A
mean (A) = [<span>53 + 34 + 52 + 40 + 50 + 36 + 48 + 38]/8 = 43.88

Bakery B
mean (B) =  [</span>53 + 41 + 47 + 44 + 55 + 40 + 51 + 39]/8 = 46.25

Even if bakery A and B has the 38 and 39 as the lowest data respectively, they are still near the average data.

Find the local maximum and minimum values and saddle point(s) of the function. If you have three-dimensional graphing software,
grandymaker [24]

Solution:

There is no saddle point (DNE). However, there is local maximum at (1, 1/2) for the given function.

Explanation:

we have function of two variables f(x,y)= 9-2x+4y-x^2-4y^2

we will find the values by partial derivative with respect to x,y,xy

f_{x}= -2 -2x

f_{y}= 4 -8y

to find the saddle point we should first find the critical points so equate

-2 -2x=0 and   4 -8y=0

we get x= 1  and y =1/2 so, critical points are (1,1/2)

to find local maximum or minimum we have to find f_{xx},  f_{yy} and f_{xy}

formula is f_{xx} *f_{yy} - f^{2_{xy} } =0

f_{xx} = -2

f_{yy} = -8

f^{2_{xy} } =0

putting values in formula

(-2)*(-8) -0 =16 > 0, and f_{xx}< 0  and f_{yy}<0

so, here we have local maximum

we have no saddle point for this function by using the same formula we used to find extrema.
