Answer: $QM=20$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, the midpoint is the point of a segment where it is divided into two equal segments.

2. Keeping the definition above on mind, if $QM=16+x$ and $MR=2(2x+2)$ , you can calculate the lenght of $QM$ as following:

- Equal both equations:

$16+x=2(2x+2)$

- Solve for $x$ :

$16+x=2(2x+2)\\16+x=4x+4\\16-4=4x-x\\12=3x\\x=4$

- Substitute the value of $x$ into $QM=16+x$ :

$QM=16+4=20$

A statistics practitioner in a large university is investigating the factors that affect salary of professors. He wondered if ev

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Given the linear regression of Y: "Annual salary" as a function of X: "Mean score on teaching evaluation" of a population of university professors. It is desired to study whether student evaluations are related to salaries.

The population equation line is

E(Y)= β₀ + β₁X

Using the information of a n= 100 sample, the following data was calculated:

R²= 0.23

Coefficient Standard Error

Intercept 25675.5 11393

x 5321 2119

The estimated equation is

^Y= 25675.5 + 5321X

Now if the interest is to test if the teaching evaluation affects the proffesor's annual salary, the hypotheses are:

H₀: β = 0

H₁: β ≠ 0

There are two statistic you can use to make this test, a Student's t or an ANOVA F.

Since you have information about the estimation of β you can calculate the two tailed t test using the formula:

$t= \frac{b - \beta }{\frac{Sb}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_{n-2}$

$t= \frac{ 5321 - 0 }{\frac{2119}{\sqrt{100} } }$ = 25.1109

The p-value is two-tailed, and is the probability of getting a value as extreme as the calculated $t_{H_0}$ under the distribution $t_{98}$

p-value < 0.00001

I hope it helps!

Let d(t) be the total number of miles Joanna has cycled, and let t represent the number of hours after stopping for a break duri

Naddik [55]

Answer:

d(4)=?

where

d= distance

t= hours

In this Linear function given by the law d(t) = 12t +20 and the graph below. To find the d(4), means to find out how many miles she cycled in the instant 4 hours.

By this function, after a break , the instant t=0, she had already cycled 20 miles.

Let's calculate

d(4) = 12(4) +20

d(4) =48+20

d(4)= 68 miles

5. Whitney deposits $9,000 for 2 years. She compares two different banks. State

Volgvan

Answer:

a. $ 381.969,

b. $ 369.171,

c. Kings Savings

d. Reliability.

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Amount formula in compound interest,

$A=P(1+r)^t$

And, amount formula in continuously,

$A=Pe^{rt}$ ,

Where,

P = principal amount,

r = rate per periods,

t = number of periods,

a. In State bank,

P = $ 9000, r = 2.1% = 0.021, t = 2 years,

Also, interest earned compound annually,

Thus, amount,

$A=9000(1+0.021)^2 = 9000(1.021)^2 = \$ 9381.969$

So, interest earned = A - P = 9381.969 - 9000 = $ 381.969,

b. In Kings Savings,

P = $ 9000, r = 2.01% = 0.0201, t = 2 years,

Also, interest earned compound continuously,

Thus, amount,

$A=9000e^{0.0201\times 2} = \$ 9369.171$

So, interest earned = A - P = 9369.171 - 9000 = $ 369.171,

c. ∵ 369.171 > 381.969

Thus, King saving pays higher interest.

d. Since, the other factors might affect Whitney's choice besides interest would be reliability.
