Answer:

Neither are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of legs = the number of ants * 6.

The relationship is L = 6 a   so neither are correct.

Answer: Both equations are incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ants have 6 legs:

The equation of Elena is:

a = 6*L

where a is ants and L is legs.

this equation says that are equal number of ants tan 6 times the number of legs, this is is not the case;

the number of legs is six times the number of ants, because each ant has 6 legs: L =6*a

the Andre equation is:

L = 0.166*a

Which, again, it is incorrect.

in this case the equation should be:

a = 0.166*L

and the ratio of ants to legs is 1:6 wich means that there is one ant for each 6 legs.

Both options are incorrect

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a)Slope: \hat \beta_1 =\frac{7625.9}{1248.9}=6.106

Intercept: \hat \beta_o = 157.955 -6.106 (69.686)=-267.548

b) r=\frac{7625.9}{\sqrt{[1248.9][94228.8]}}=0.657  

And the determination coeffecient is r^2 = 0.657^2 =0.432  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and definitions

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"    

When we conduct a multiple regression we want to know about the relationship between several independent or predictor variables and a dependent or criterion variable.  

n=110, \sum x_i y_i = \sum (X-\bar X)(Y-\bar Y) =7625.9,\sum x^2_i=\sum (x-\bar x)^2 =1248.9 , sum y^2_i=\sum(y-\bar y)^2 =94228.8  

\sum Y_i =17375 , \sum X_i = 7665.5

Part a

The slope is given by this formula:

\hat \beta_1 =\frac{\sum (x-\bar x) (y-\bar y)}{\sum (x-\bar x )^2}

If we replace we got:

\hat \beta_1 =\frac{7625.9}{1248.9}=6.106

We can find the intercept with the following formula

\hat \beta_o = \bar y -\hat \beta_1 \bar x

We can find the average for x and y like this:

\bar X=7665.5/110 =69.686, \bar y= 17375/110=157.955

And replacing we got:

\hat \beta_o = 157.955 -6.106 (69.686)=-267.548

Part b

In order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

r=\frac{\sum (x-\bar x)(y-\bar y) }{\sqrt{[\sum (x-\bar x)^2][\sum(y-\bar y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:  

n=110, \sum x_i y_i = \sum (X-\bar X)(Y-\bar Y) =7625.9,\sum x^2_i=\sum (x-\bar x)^2 =1248.9 , sum y^2_i=\sum(y-\bar y)^2 =94228.8  

So we can find the correlation coefficient replacing like this:

r=\frac{7625.9}{\sqrt{[1248.9][94228.8]}}=0.657  

And the determination coeffecient is r^2 = 0.657^2 =0.432

A professional writer decides to judge the value of her laptop by the number of times she presses
shusha [124]

Answer:

D.)

15040000 <= k <=19840000

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 1200 -0.00002k

Value V after one year falls in the range of $803.20 and $899.20.

Let's substract these values from 1200.

1200-803.20=396.80

1200-899.20=300.80

So it means that

0.00002k= 396.80

And

0.00002k= 300.80

So

0.00002k= 396.80

K= 396.80/0.00002

K= 19840000

And

0.00002k= 300.80

K = 300.80/0.00002

K= 15040000

So range is between

15040000 <= k <=19840000

Your sister helped you get a dream job at a designer clothing store and one of the perks of the job is that you get 15% off all
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$197.30 revenue.

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as we realise that 15% = $237.50 total revenue - 15% of that revenue $40.20 and the other 15% was totaled prior and kept to one side as seen as expenditure.

revenue = r  clothing purchase = p

r = (25 x 10 -12.50) - (p15% of e235)

r = (250 - 12.50) -( e235- p23.5 +11.73)

r = (237.50) - (expenditure 235- p35.73)

r = 237.50 -(expenditure 199.27)

r= 237.50

e = 199.27

p = 35.73

Answer with out including expenditure your sister revenue was $237.50

The 15% deduction cannot be confused with the deduction from clothes.

If we were to calculate 15% of $237.50 this would be 23.7+ 16.85 =$40.2

A different  Salary related 15% contribution payments = $40.20

If these were taken from $237.50

Then $237.50- $40.20 = $197.30 revenue, but we do not have to show expenditure in the total only the workings, which is still owed being $199.27- $40.20 already paid towards.

Extension = This means because $40.20 was deducted then expenditure still to be deducted outside of the question would be   e. $199.27 - $40.20 = 159.07 still owed. Saying that the 15% was to pay your sisters contribution to the clothes and not to the state.
