Ummm if its multiply then its 1 and 6. is its addition then its 1 and 5 or 6 and 0. if its divide it would be 6 and 1. is its subtraction then it would be 7 and 1 or 6 and 0

Answer:

(C) The slope of the regression equation is not significantly different from zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose that we have the following linear model:

$y= \beta_o +\beta_1 X$

Where Y is the dependent variable and X the independent variable. $\beta_0$ represent the intercept and $\beta_1$ the slope.

In order to estimate the coefficients $\beta_0 ,\beta_1$ we can use least squares estimation.

If we are interested in analyze if we have a significant relationship between the dependent and the independent variable we can use the following system of hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis: $\beta_1 = 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\beta_1 \neq 0$

Or in other wouds we want to check is our slope is significant.

In order to conduct this test we are assuming the following conditions:

a) We have linear relationship between Y and X

b) We have the same probability distribution for the variable Y with the same deviation for each value of the independent variable

c) We assume that the Y values are independent and the distribution of Y is normal

The significance level is provided and on this case is $\alpha=0.05$

The standard error for the slope is given by this formula:

$SE_{\beta_1}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{\sum (y_i -\hat y_i)^2}{n-2}}}{\sqrt{\sum (X_i -\bar X)^2}}$

Th degrees of freedom for a linear regression is given by $df=n-2$ since we need to estimate the value for the slope and the intercept.

In order to test the hypothesis the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\hat \beta_1}{SE_{\beta_1}}$

The confidence interval for the slope would be given by this formula:

$\hat \beta_1 + t_{n-2, \alpha/2} \frac{\sqrt{\frac{\sum (y_i -\hat y_i)^2}{n-2}}}{\sqrt{\sum (X_i -\bar X)^2}}$

And using the last formula we got that the confidence interval for the slope coefficient is given by:

$-0.88 < \beta_1$

IF we analyze the confidence interval contains the value 0. So we can conclude that we don't have a significant effect of the slope on this case at 5% of significance. And the best option would be:

(C) The slope of the regression equation is not significantly different from zero

N(17+x)=34x−r<br> I need to solve for x

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The value of x is, $x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

Explanation:

Given: $N(17+x)=34x-r$

Distributive Property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

If $a\cdot(b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c$

Now, using distributive property on left hand side of the given expression as:

$N\cdot 17+N\cdot x = 34x-r$ or $17N+Nx = 34x-r$

Addition Property of equality state that we add the same number from both sides of an equation.

Add r to both sides of an equation:

$17N+Nx+r=34x-r+r$

Simplify:

$17N+Nx+r=34x$

Subtraction Property of equality state that we subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract Nx from both sides of an equation;

$17N+Nx+r-Nx=34x-Nx$

Simplify:

$17N+r=34x-Nx$

or

$17N+r=x(34-N)$

Division Property of equality states that we divide the same number from both sides of an equation.

Divide by (34-N) to both sides of an equation;

$\frac{17N+r}{34-N}= \frac{x(34-N)}{34-N}$

On Simplify:

$x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

A maple syrup company is making a new label for its barrels of syrup. If the barrels are 5 feet tall and have a radius of 2 feet

Elanso [62]

Answer:

(A)62.8 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the barrels = 5 feet

Radius of the barrels= 2 feet

$\pi$ =3.14

The barrel is in the shape of a cylinder and the area of the label the company needs is that of the round sides(curved surface area) of the cylinder.

Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder= $2\pi rh$

=2X3.14X2X5

=62.8 square feet

The company need 62.8 square feet of label.
