Corey used the regression equation y = 1.505x − 88.21, where x is the temperature and y is the number of swimmers, to determine

a possible outside temperature when 80 swimmers are at City Pool.
1. y = 1.505(80) − 88.21

2. y = 120.4 − 88.21

3. y = 32.19

4. If there are 80 swimmers at the pool, the temperature is likely to be 32.2°F.

Analyze Corey’s work to find his error. What is Corey’s mistake?

The selling price of a chair is N14 000. The trader gives a 25% discount for cash. What is the cash price?
True [87]

Answer:N10500

Step-by-step explanation:

10%of 14000=1400

20%=1400x2=2800

5%=1400 divided by 2=700

25%=2800+700=3500

14000-3500=10500

According to a 2014 research study of national student engagement in the U.S., the average college student spends 17 hours per w
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 17

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ < 17

This is a left tailed test.

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 80,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 80 - 1 = 79

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 15.6

µ = population mean = 17

s = samples standard deviation = 4.5

t = (15.6 - 17)/(4.5/√80) = - 2.78

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.0034

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.0043, then we would reject the null hypothesis.

The data supports the professor’s claim. The average number of hours per week spent studying for students at her college is less than 17 hours per week.

Using the quadratic formula to solve 11x2 – 4x = 1, what are the values of x? StartFraction 2 Over 11 EndFraction plus-or-minus
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

11x^{2} -4x=1  

equate to zero

11x^{2} -4x-1=0  

so

a=11\\b=-4\\c=-1

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{-4^{2}-4(11)(-1)}} {2(11)}

x=\frac{4\pm\sqrt{60}} {22}

x=\frac{4\pm2\sqrt{15}} {22}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{15}} {11}

x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}

therefore

StartFraction 2 Over 11 EndFraction plus-or-minus StartFraction StartRoot 15 EndRoot Over 11 EndFraction
