Answer:

0.872

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is increasing. This means the correlation coefficient will be positive.

This is a fairly good fit; this means we want the larger of the two positive numbers, or 0.872.

That's a really good positive correlation pictured. The line fits the data very well. The slope of the line is positive, meaning as x increases so does y. I'd choose a big positive value.

Answer: 0.872

Which system of equations is inconsistent?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The system of equation is inconsistent is;

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

Explanation:

* A system of equations is called an inconsistent system, if there is no solution because the lines are parallel.

* If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .

*A dependent system of equations is when the same line is written in two different forms so that there are infinite solutions.

(A)

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

This is inconsistent, because as shown below in the graph of figure 1 that the lines do not intersect, so the graphs are parallel and there is no solution.

(B)

5x+4y=-14

3x+6y=6

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 2 and also it is independent.

(C)

x+2y=3

4x+6y=5

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 3.

(D)

3x-2y=2

6x-4y=4

this is a consistent system and has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent because both equations represent the same line. as shown below in the graph of Figure-4.

Therefore, the only Option A system of equation is inconsistent.

Grandpa ernie is shrinking! Over the past 4 years, his hight decressed by a total of 2.4cm. It decresed by the same amount each

dolphi86 [110]

Answer: 0.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Over the past 4 years, Grandpa Ernie's height decreased by a total of 2.4 cm.

If the height is decreased by the same amount each year.

Then, the change in Grandpa Ernie's height each year will be =

Total decrease in height ÷ 4

= 2.4 cm ÷ 4 = 0.6 cm

Hence, the change in Grandpa Ernie's height each year = 0.6 cm

When circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 5%. Let

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

a) P(X ≤ 2) = 0.87

b) P(X ≥ 5) = 0.01

c) P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 0.71

d) P ( X = 0 ) = 0.28

e) σ(X) = 1.09 , E(X) = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Let X = the number of defective boards in a random sample of size n = 25, so X ~ Bin(25, 0.05)

Where, n = 25 and p = 0.05

Find:

(a) Determine P(X ≤ 2).(b) Determine P(X ≥ 5).(c) Determine P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4).(d) What is the probability that none of the 25 boards is defective?(e) Calculate the expected value and standard deviation of X.

Solution:

- The probability mass function for a binomial distribution is given by:

P ( X = x ) = nCr * (p)^r * ( 1 - p )^(n-r)

a) P(X ≤ 2):

P(X ≤ 2) = P ( X = 0 ) + P ( X = 1 ) + P ( X = 2 )

= (0.95)^25 + 25*0.05*0.95^24 + 25C2*0.05^2*0.95^23

= 0.87

b) P(X ≥ 5):

P(X ≥ 5) = 1 - [P ( X = 0 ) + P ( X = 1 ) + P ( X = 2 ) + P ( X = 3 ) + P(X=4)

= 1 - [ 0.87 + 25C3*0.05^3*0.95^22 + 25C4*0.05^4*0.95^21]

= 1 - 0.98994

= 0.01

c) P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4):

P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = P ( X = 1 ) + P ( X = 2 ) + P ( X = 3 ) + P(X=4)

= ( 0.87 - 0.95^25) + 0.11994

= 0.71

d) P( X = 0 )

P ( X = 0 ) = 0.95^25 = 0.28

e) E(X) & σ(X):

E(X) = n*p

E(X) = 25*0.05 = 1.25

σ(X) = sqrt ( Var (X) )

σ(X) = sqrt ( n*p*(1-p) ) = sqrt ( 25*0.05*0.95 )

σ(X) = 1.09

Myra asked Annabelle to buy her some perfume while she was in France. Annabelle paid 200 euros for it. Myra wants to pay Annabel

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

286

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Myra asked Annabelle to buy her some perfume while she was in France. Annabelle paid 200 euros for it. Myra wants to pay Annabelle back in U.S. dollars.

To Find: If the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the euro is 1:0.7, how much should Myra pay Annabelle?

Solution:

Since Annabelle paid 200 euros

And Myra wants to pay Annabelle back in U.S. dollars.

Let Myra paid amount to Annabelle in U.S. dollar be x

We are also given that the U.S. dollar and the euro is 1:0.7

⇒ $\frac{1}{0.7}=\frac{x}{200}$
