The profit earned by a hot dog stand is a linear function of the number of hot dogs sold. It costs the owner $48 dollars

Answer:

y = 2x - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two equations aren't true because in the problem, it says that each hot dog costs $2.

Also it says x represents the amount of hot dogs sold. So 2 would be multiplied by x not 48.

The last equation isn't correct because, in the beginning of the problem it says the owner has to pay $48 each morning for supplies. So the owner loses $48 dollars, he does earn $48 like it shows in the last equation.

The only equation that makes sense and is correct, would be the third equation, which is y = 2x - 48

Answer:

Its the third one because, he gets $2 for each hot dog but we dont know ow many hot dogs are sold everyday. We also know that at the end of the day $48 is taken out for supplies to make the hot dogs.

Hope this helped! :3

Find the correlation coefficient of the line of best fit for the points (-3,-40), (1,12), (5,72), (7,137). Explain how you guy y
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

r = 0.9825; good correlation.

Step-by-step explanation:

One formula for the correlation coefficient is  

r = \dfrac{n\sum{xy} - \sum{x} \sum{y}}{\sqrt{n\left [\sum{x}^{2}-\left (\sum{x}\right )^{2}\right]\left [\sum{y}^{2}-\left (\sum{y}\right )^{2}\right]}}

The calculation is not difficult, but it is tedious.

1. Calculate the intermediate numbers

We can display them in a table.

      <u> </u><u>x</u>    <u>  y </u>   <u>  xy </u>  <u> x² </u>    <u>   y²   </u>

      -3   -40    120     9     1600

       1      12      12      1        144

       5    72   360   25      5184

     <u>  7</u>   <u>137</u>  <u> 959</u>   <u>49</u>    <u>18769 </u>

Σ = 10   181  1451   84   25697

2. Calculate the correlation coefficient

r = \dfrac{n\sum{xy} - \sum{x} \sum{y}}{\sqrt{\left [n\sum{x}^{2}-\left (\sum{x}\right )^{2}\right]\left [n\sum{y}^{2}-\left (\sum{y}\right )^{2}\right]}}\\\\= \dfrac{4\times 1451 - 10\times 181}{\sqrt{[4\times 84 - 10^{2}][4\times25697 - 181^{2}]}}\\\\= \dfrac{5804 - 1810}{\sqrt{[336 - 100][102788 - 32761]}}\\\\= \dfrac{3994}{\sqrt{236\times70027}}\\\\= \dfrac{3994}{\sqrt{16526372}}\\\\= \dfrac{3994}{4065}\\\\= \mathbf{0.9825}

The closer the value of r is to +1 or -1, the better the correlation is. The values of x and y are highly correlated.

cluponka [151]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>volume of the cylinder = 2πx^{3}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base.

Let the height of the cylinder = 2x

Let the radius of the cylinder = x

By formula, volume of the cylinder = πr^{2} h

here r = x, h = 2x

substituting the values in the equation, we get

volume of the cylinder = πr^{2} h =  π x^{2} (2x)

volume of the cylinder = 2πx^{3}
