A study was conducted to investigate the relationship between soda consumptions (servings per day) and weight gain (kgs) over a 2 year period and yielded the following linear regression results: weight gain over a 2 year period (kgs) = 4.5 + 0.25(servings of soda per day) what is the predicted weight gain over a 2 year period for someone that drinks 4 servings of soda per day?

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

5.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a study conducted to investigate the relationship between soda consumptions (servings per day) and weight gain (kgs) over a 2 year period and yielded the following linear regression results:

Let y = weight gains over a two year period (kg) and

x = servings of soda per day

Then the regression equation estimated is

4.5+0.25x =y

Using this we can find unknown y for a given x.

When x =4 we get y by substituting x =4 in the equation

y (4) = 1+4.5 = 5.5

Weight gain = 5.5 kg.

Does anyone know the answer

Answers

Answer:

G

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to understand what this equation is saying and what plugging in different values would represent.

At x=0, b(0)=850; which means the initial balance is $850. So H is incorrect.

At x=1, b(1)=871.25; which means that after 1 year, the initial balance will have increase to $871.25. So J is incorrect.

Since the initial vacation of 850 is being multiplied by a factor which is greater than one, the balance will be increased each year. So F is incorrect.

Finally, if we look at the factor by which we are multiplying, do a simple Algebraic step, and convert it into percentages we get:

1.025 = (1 + 0.025) = 100% + 2.5%

Essentially this is showing us that the balance will increase by 2.5% on however much is in the account each year.

So G is your answer.

Round off 1563385 to the nearest million?

Answers

1,563,385

Look at the millions place. 1 is in the millions place. 
Now look at the number to the right of 1.
Since it is 5 or greater, round 1 up to 2.
Change all the numbers after 1 to 0.

1,563,385 rounded to the nearest million is 2,000,000.

Answer:

  (d)  A = 18 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Line CE can be considered to be the base of two triangles. It is 6 units long. The upper triangle is 4 units high, and the lower triangle is 2 units high. The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh

Then the sum of the areas of the two triangles is ...

  A = 1/2(6)(4) +1/2(6)(2) = 12 +6 = 18

The area of the polygon is 18 square units.

Answer: A=18units2

Step-by-step explanation:

I said 17 before and got it wrong lol.

Next time I said 18 cuz it seemed like the closest when I estimated what it looked like the units it covered, so it's right:)

hope it helps!
