Anyone who has been outdoors on a summer evening has probably heard crickets. Did you know that it is possible to use the cricket as a thermometer? Crickets tend to chirp more frequently as temperatures increase. This phenomenon was studied in detail by George W. Pierce, a physics professor at Harvard. In the following data, x is a random variable representing chirps per second and y is a random variable representing temperature (°F). These data are also available for download at the online study center.
X 20.0 16.0 19.8 18.4 17.1 15.5 14.7 17.1
Y 88.6 71.6 93.3 84.3 80.6 75.2 69.7 82.0
X 15.4 16.2 15.0 17.2 16.0 17.0 14.4
Y 69.4 83.3 79.6 82.6 80.6 83.5 76.3
Required:
a. Draw a scatter diagram displaying the data.
b. Find X- bar, Y- bar, a and b. Then find the equation of the least squares line y=a+bx.
c. Graph the least squares line on your scatter diagram. Be sure to use the point ( X-bar, Y- bar) as one of the points on the line.

Answer:
a) attached below
b) X - bar = 16.65
Y - bar = 80.04
y = 25.26 + 3.29 ( X )
c) attached in diagram below
Step-by-step explanation:
n = 15
∑ x = 20.0 + 16.0 + 19.8 + 18.4 + 17.1 + 15.5 + 14.7 + 17.1 + 15.4 + 16.2 + 15.0 + 17.2 + 16.0 + 17.0 + 14.4 = 249.8
∑ y = 88.6 + 71.6 + 93.3 + 84.3 + 80.6 + 75.2 + 69.7 + 82.0 + 69.4 + 83.3 + 79.6 + 82.6 + 80.6 + 83.5 + 76.3 = 1200.6
∑ xy = ( 20 * 88.6 ) + ( 16 *71.6 ) + ( 19.8 * 93.3 ) + ( 18.4 * 84.3 ) + ( 17.1 * 80.6 ) + (15.5 * 75.2 ) + ( 14.7 * 69.7 ) + ( 17.1 * 82.0 ) + ( 15.4 * 69.4 ) + ( 16.2 * 83.3 ) + ( 15 *79.6 ) + ( 17.2 * 82.6 ) + ( 16 * 80.6 ) + ( 17 * 83.5 ) + ( 14.4 * 76.3 )
= 20127.47
∑x^2 = 20.0^2 + 16^2 + 19.8^2 + 18.4^2 + 17.1^2 + 15.5^2 + 14.7^2 + 17.1^2 + 15.4^2 + 16.2^2 + 15.0^2 + 17.2^2 + 16.0^2 + 17.0^2 + 14.4^2
= 4200.56
∑ y^2 = 88.6^2 + 71.6^2 + 93.3^2 + 84.3^2 + 80.6^2 + 75.2^2 + 69.7^2 + 82.0 ^2 + 69.4^2 + 83.3^2 + 79.6^2 + 82.6^2 + 80.6^2 + 83.5^2 + 76.3^2
= 96725.86
a) Scatter diagram showing given data
Attached below
B)
X - bar = ∑x / n = 249.8 / 15 = 16.65
Y - bar = ∑y / n = 1200.6 / 15 = 80.04
where: Y = Temperature and X = Chirps per seconds
b = [ n ∑ xy - ( ∑x ∑y ) ] / [ n∑x^2 - ( ∑x )^2 ]
= [ 15 * 20127.47 - ( 249.8 * 1200.6 )] / [15* 4200.56 - ( 249.8 )^2 ]
= 2002.17 / 608.36 = 3.29
a = Y-bar - b( X-bar )
= 80.04 - 3.29( 16.65) = 25.26
equation for least squares line
y = 25.26 + 3.29 ( X )
C) Graph the least squares line on scattered diagram

Answers
Answer:
m<B = 107°
Step-by-step explanation:
∆ADC is congruent to ∆ABC by the SSS Congruence Theorem.
<D corresponds to <B, therefore,
m<D = m<B
m<D = 180° - (41° + 32°)
m<D = 180° - 73°
m<D = 107°
m<D = m<B = 107°
m<B = 107°
If a snowball melts so that its surface area decreases at a rate of 9 cm2/min, find the rate (in cm/min) at which the diameter decreases when the diameter is 10 cm. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Answers
Answer:
The diameter decreases at a rate of 0.143cm/min when it is of 10 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of an snowball:
An snowball has spherical format. The surface area of an sphere is given by:
[tex]S = d^2\pi[/tex]
In which d is the diameter of the sphere.
In this question:
We need to differentiate S implicitly in function of time. So
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt} = 2d\pi\frac{dd}{dt}[/tex]
Surface area decreases at a rate of 9 cm2/min
This means that [tex]\frac{dS}{dt} = -9[/tex]
At which the diameter decreases when the diameter is 10 cm?
This is [tex]\frac{dd}{dt}[/tex] when [tex]d = 10[/tex]. So
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt} = 2d\pi\frac{dd}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]-9 = 2(10)\pi\frac{dd}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dd}{dt} = -\frac{9}{20\pi}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dd}{dt} = -0.143[/tex]
Area in cm², so diameter in cm.
The diameter decreases at a rate of 0.143cm/min when it is of 10 cm.
450 high school freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among survey participants, the mean grade-point average (GPA) was 2.96, and the standard deviation was 0.21. What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth
Answers
Answer:
The margin of error is of 0.01.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.7}{2} = 0.15[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.15 = 0.85[/tex], so Z = 1.037.
The margin of error is of:
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
Standard deviation was 0.21.
This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.21[/tex]
Sample of 450:
This means that [tex]n = 450[/tex]
What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth?
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]M = 1.037\frac{0.21}{\sqrt{450}}[/tex]
[tex]M = 0.01[/tex]

According to the Centers for Disease control and prevention, 20.8 of high school students currently use electronic cigarettes. A high school counselor is concerned that the use of e-cigs at her school is higher.
(a) Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
(b) If the sample data indicate that the null hypothesis should not be rejected, state the conclusion of the school counselor.
(c) Suppose, in fact, that the proportion of students at the counselor's high school who use electronic cigarettes is 0.034. Was a Type I or Type II error committed?
Answers
Answer:
H0 : p = 0.028
H1: p > 0.028
We conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the school counselor's claim they the use of electronic cigarettes in high school is higher Than 2.8%
Type 11 error
Step-by-step explanation:
H0 : p = 0.028
H1: p > 0.028
If null should not be rejected then;
We conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the school counselor's claim they the use of electronic cigarettes in high school is higher Than 2.8%
3.)
If the actual proportion is 0.034, which means 3.4%, this means it is actually higher. For failing to reject a false Null, then a type 11 error has been committed
