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

Additionally, the coefficient of determination is $r^2 = 0.657^2 =0.432$

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions and data provided

The correlation coefficient is a measure that quantifies the strength of the relationship between two variable movements, denoted as r and ranging between -1 and 1.

The sum of squares refers to the total of the squared deviations, where deviation is defined as the difference between each value and the grand mean.

When performing multiple regression, the aim is to analyze the relationship between multiple independent variables and one dependent 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 can be calculated using this formula:

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

Following the substitutions, we have:

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

The intercept can be determined with this formula:

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

Average values for x and y can be calculated this way:

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

Replacing yields:

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

Part b

The correlation coefficient can be calculated using the following formula:

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

In our situation:

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

We can compute the correlation coefficient by substituting values:

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

The coefficient of determination is $r^2 = 0.657^2 =0.432$

tester [12383]

Respuesta:

El total de la factura de Isaac es $84.53

Explicación detallada:

$37.00 + $42.00 = $79.00 < b (factura)

b + t (impuesto sobre ventas) = c (costo total)

(7%/100 = 0.07)

(0.07 * 79 = 5.53)

(t = $5.53)

$79.00 + $5.53 = $84.53

¡Buena suerte!

Which statement is true about the discontinuities of the function f(x)? F (x) = StartFraction x minus 5 Over 3 x squared minus 1

AnnZ [12381]

Question:

Which statement is accurate concerning the function’s discontinuities $f(x) = \frac{x-5}{3x^2-17x-28}$

A) There are gaps at x = 7 and.

B) Asymptotes exist at x = 7 and.

C) Asymptotes exist at x = –7 and.

D) Gaps are present at (–7, 0) and.

Answer:

B) Asymptotes exist at x = 7 and $(x = \frac{-4}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$f(x) = \frac{x-5}{3x^2-17x-28}$

Goal:

Identify the correct statement

$f(x) = \frac{x-5}{3x^2-17x-28}$

We need to factor the denominator first.

$f(x) = \frac{x-5}{(3x+4)(x-7)}$

To express x in terms of (3x+4) and (x-7):

3x + 4 =

3x = -4

Divide both sides by 3:

$x = \frac{-4}{3}$

x - 7

x = 7

Next, evaluate the limit when $(x = \frac{-4}{3})$ and at (x = 7)

lim f(x) as $(x = \frac{-4}{3})$ = ±∞

lim f(x) as (x=7) = ±∞

Since both scenarios result in the denominator approaching zero, they represent asymptotes.

Thus, asymptotes are found at $(x = \frac{-4}{3})$ and x=7

Option B is determined to be correct
