Answer: The true statements are:-

There are about the same number of points above the x-axis as below it.

The points are randomly scattered with no clear pattern.

The number of points is equal to those in the scatter plot.

Explanation:

A residual plot is a graph which shows that the residuals on the vertical axis and the independent variable on the horizontal axis.

Thus, the number of points is equal to those in the scatter plot and ame number of points above the x-axis as below it.

We know the points are randomly scattered across the plot, so that there is no relationship. Thus the points are randomly scattered with no clear pattern.

Answer:

The statements that best describes a residual plot for a line of best fit that is a good model for a scatter plot is:

There are about the same number of points above the x-axis as below it.

The points are randomly scattered with no clear pattern.

The number of points is equal to those in the scatter plot.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a line of best fit is a line that best represents the set of data.

In this the point may or may not lie on the line but the number of points that lie above or below the line are equal ; otherwise the line will not be a line of best fit.

Also the points may be distorted in any manner not necessarily in a straight line.

Which fraction is equivalent to StartFraction 2 Over 6 EndFraction? StartFraction 3 Over 7 EndFraction, because StartFraction 2

irinina [24]

Question:

Which fraction is equivalent to $\frac{2}{6}$ ?

- $\frac{3}{7}$ because $\frac{2}{6}= \frac{2 + 1}{6 + 1}$

- $\frac{3}{9}$ because $\frac{2}{6}= \frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{9}$

- $\frac{3}{12}$ because $\frac{2}{6}= \frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{9}$

- $\frac{3}{8}$ because $\frac{2}{6}= \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2+1}{6+2} = \frac{3}{8}$

Answer:

- $\frac{3}{9}$ because $\frac{2}{6}= \frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two fractions are said to be equal if and only if they give the same value when simplified.

The equivalent of $\frac{2}{6}$ is as explained in the selected option;

First, divide numerator and denominator by 2

$\frac{2/2}{6/2}$

Then simplify

2/2 = 1 and 6/2 = 3; So;

$\frac{2/2}{6/2} = \frac{1}{3}$

Multiply numerator and denominator by 3

$\frac{1*3}{3*3} = \frac{3}{9}$

Hence, $\frac{2}{6}$ is equivalent to $\frac{3}{9}$

In a science experiment, Shelly has to weigh a compound in grams. The balance in her school measures in milligrams (mg). Shelly

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

We know, 1 g = 1000 mg
so, 1 mg = 1/1000 g
then, 8,450 mg = 1/1000 * 8,450 = 8.450 g

In short, Your Answer would be: 8.450 Grams

Hope this helps!

Emi computes the mean and variance for the population data set 87, 46, 90, 78, and 89. She finds the mean is 78. Her steps for f

Nata [24]

Mean = Sum of all the observations/ Number of observations = (87+46+90+78+89)/5 = 78

Variance = SD^2 ------ SD = Standard deviation

It means that with Variance, square root is never taken.

Therefore,
Variance = Summation of square of differences between observation and the mean divided by the number of observations.

That is,
Variance = {(87-78)^2 + (46-78)^2 + (90-78)^2 + (78-78)^2 + (89-78)^2}/5 = 274

Art [367]

Answer:

(D)Jaleel's method is correct because 2(x-2)=2x-4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jaleel and Lisa are simplifying the expression 2(x-2)+2 as shown.

$J$aleel's Method: \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2 (x -2) + 2 \\= 2 x - 4 + 2 \\= 2 x - 2\end{array}\right$
