At a local grocery store, apples cost $0.50 each and bananas cost $0.30 each. The expression 0.50x + 0.30y can be used to find t

he cost of buying some apples and bananas. 1. Interpret what the x and y represent in context. 2. What does each term represent? 3. What do each of the coefficients represent?

(1) x represents the number of apples bought, y represents the number of bananas.

(2) each term represents the total costs of a given fruit, so 0.50x is the total cost of apples and 0.30y is total cost of bananas.

(3) The coefficients are unit prices: coefficient 0.50 is the price of 1 apple, 0.30 is the price of 1 banana.

A scientist studying water quality measures the lead level in parts per billion (ppb) at each of 49 randomly chosen locations al
NeX [460]

Complete Question

The complete qustion is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The correct option is B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The sample size  is  n = 49

       The mean is  \mu  =  17ppb

       The standard deviation is \sigma =  14 ppb

Generally the standard error of this measurement is mathematically represented as

       \sigma_z  =  \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }      

substituting values

      \sigma_{\= x}  =  \frac{14}{\sqrt{49} }  

     \sigma_{\= x}  =  2ppb

Now the probability that the mean lead level from the sample of 49 measurements T is less than 15 ppb represented as P(X < 15 )

Next is to find the z value

    z =  \frac{\mu -\sigma }{\sigma_{\= x}}

     z =  \frac{15-17}{2}

      z =  -1

Now checking the z-table for the z-score of  -1 we have  

      P(X

A statistics teacher was interested in the relationship between the number of days students waited to start a project and the sc
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

<em>A: For each increase in the number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The slope of a Regression Line</u>

A straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope describes how fast and in what direction the graph goes when x changes values.

If m is positive, increments in x imply increments in y.

If m is negative, increments in x imply decrements in y.

The regression line is:

ŷ = –3.64x + 96.5

Where:

x = the number of procrastination days

ŷ = the predicted grade

We can say the slope is m=-3.64. This means that:

A: For each increase in the number of procrastination days by 1, the predicted grade decreases by 3.64 points.

Which equation is equivalent to startroot x^2 + 81 EndRoot = x + 10?
Nitella [24]

Answer:given below

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt x^2 +81= x + 10

x^2 + 81 = (x+10)^2

x^2 + 81 = x^2 + 20x + 100

so answer is:  

x^2 + 81 = x^2 +20x + 100

Which equation correctly uses point (–2, –6) to write the equation of this line in point-slope form? Y – 6 = y minus 6 equals St
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Part 1) y+6=\frac{2}{5}(x+2)

Part 2) y+6=\frac{5}{2}(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we're going to analyze two cases

<em>First case</em>

Point\ (-2,-6)

slope\ m=\frac{2}{5}

substitute

y+6=\frac{2}{5}(x+2)

therefore

y plus 6 equals StartFraction 2 Over 5 EndFraction left-parenthesis x plus 2 right parenthesis

<em>Second  case</em>

Point\ (-2,-6)

slope\ m=\frac{5}{2}

substitute

y+6=\frac{5}{2}(x+2)

therefore

y plus 6 equals StartFraction 5 Over 2 EndFraction left-parenthesis x plus 2 right parenthesis
