Answer:

The quantity of lobster which are sold live each year in the United States and  Canada are 46 million pounds (approximately).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Each year, 183 million pounds of lobster are caught in  the United States and Canada. Twenty-five percent of this amount is  sold live.

Now, to find how  many pounds of lobster are sold live each year in the United States and  Canada.

According to question:

25% of 183 million pounds.

[tex]\frac{25}{100}\times 183[/tex]

[tex]=0.25\times 183[/tex]

[tex]=45.75[/tex]

Each year 45.75 million pounds of lobster are sold live in the United States and Canada.

Therefore, the quantity of lobster which are sold live each year in the United States and  Canada are 46 million pounds (approximately).

Answer: 2.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem is all about conversions

220 ft per minute

first get it to hours, since there is 60 minute in an hour multiply by a factor of 60

220 ft per minute becomes 13200 ft per hour

then you need to covert from ft to mi, there are 5280 ft in 1 mi so divide by 5280

13200 ft per hour becomes 2.5 miles per hour

Answer:

A. positive slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the least square linear regression of Y on X, the straight line of best fit is given by,

[tex]Y_{s} = \mu_{Y} + \rho \times \frac {\sigma_{Y}}{\sigma_{X}} \times (X - \mu_{X})[/tex] ------------------(1)

[where [tex]Y_{s}[/tex] is the estimated value of Y]

Clearly,  here,

Slope pf the line = [tex]\rho \times \frac {\sigma_{Y}}{\sigma_{X}}[/tex]---------------------------------(2)

Y- intercept = [tex]\mu_{Y} - \rho \times \mu_{X} \times \frac {\sigma_{Y}}{\sigma_{X}}[/tex]-----------------(3)

and,

X - intercept = [tex]\mu_{X} - \mu_{Y} \times \frac {\sigma_{X}}{\rho \times \sigma_{Y}}[/tex]----------------(4) [putting [tex]Y_{s} = 0[/tex] in (1) and taking the value of X]

So,

since [tex]\sigma_{Y}, \sigma_{X} > 0[/tex]

[since [tex]\sigma_{Y} = 0[/tex] or [tex]\sigma_{X} = 0[/tex] will result in a degenerate distribution, hence these cases are discarded]

so, correlation coefficient = [tex]\rho[/tex] > 0 implies

A. positive slope. [as evident from (1)]

clearly from (3) and (4) all the other options are false.

Final answer:

A least squares line of best fit with a positive correlation coefficient always has a positive slope, reflecting the positive relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The y-intercept can be positive or negative and is not determined by the correlation.

Explanation:

The question is asking about the characteristics of a least squares line of best fit when there is a positive correlation coefficient. A positive correlation coefficient means that as the value of the independent variable (x) increases, the value of the dependent variable (y) also increases. From this, it follows that the slope of the line ( he m term in the equation) is positive - reflecting the concept that the slope represents the relationship between two variables, with a positive slope indicating a positive relationship.

The y-intercept (the b term in the equation) could be positive or negative, as it represents where the line crosses the y-axis when x is 0, and this point doesn't affect the direction of the relationship between the variables, just the starting level of the dependent variable. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is simply A. positive slope, as this is the only feature guaranteed by a positive correlation coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Graph A is the correct answer.

explanation of the answer:

the line starts between 10 and 15 and continues to increase to the top of the graph.

The equation y = 12 + 2x represents the cost of a pizza given the number of additional toppings. The corresponding graph would be a straight line which starts at $12 on the y-axis (no toppings) and goes up by $2 on the y-axis for each increment of 1 on the x-axis (each additional topping).

The equation given in the problem, y = 12 + 2x, is a linear equation that represents the cost of a pizza with an increasing number of toppings.

In this equation, 'x' represents the number of additional toppings and 'y' represents the total cost of the pizza. The graph representing this equation would be a straight line that starts at $12 on the y-axis (representing the cost of a medium
pizza without any additional toppings).

Then, for each increment of 1 on the x-axis (representing adding one topping), the line goes up by $2 on the y-axis (representing the additional cost).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we need to find the scale factor. First, divide the given numbers (measurements). So 36/24. This gives us 1.5, our scale factor. Now, to find the correct measurements of the real building, divide the values. So for example, BUILDING C = 288 feet by 432 feet. Divide the two values. You get 432/288= 1.5 Therefore, this building matches our scale factor.

the solution for ( x ) in the equation [tex]\( x^{12} = 17 \)[/tex] is approximately [tex]\( x \approx 1.170092 \).[/tex]

y intercept : 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2a−b/6 = b/3, then ratio a:b = 3 : 2

Given that 2a−b/6 = b/3

We have to find the ratio of a:b

In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another

A ratio between two or more quantities is a way of measuring their sizes compared to each other

let us first solve the given expression

[tex]\frac{2a -b}{6} = \frac{b}{3}[/tex]

On cross multiplication we get,

6a - 3b = 6b

6a = 6b + 3b

6a = 9b

[tex]a = \frac{9b}{6}\\\\\frac{a}{b} = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

To convert a fraction to a ratio, first write down the numerator, or top number. Second, write a colon. Thirdly, write down the denominator, or bottom number

Therefore ratio a:b = 3 : 2

Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:you multiply m=5 to n=3 so what is 5 times 3? so 5 times 3 = 15

Final answer:

When m=5 and n=3, the value of mn is found by multiplying the two numbers, resulting in mn=15.

Explanation:

To find the value of mn when m=5 and n=3, you simply need to multiply the two numbers together:

1. multiply m and n-

mn = m × n

2. m= 5 and n= 3, so the expression will be as follows-

mn = 5 × 3

3. Multiplying 5 and 3, the following is obtained-

mn = 15

Therefore, the value of mn is 15.

Answer:

The number of shirts to be purchased for price to be same is 6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price for cool shirt = $ 8

The shipping charge for cool shirt = $ 13

The price for Tees = $ 7.50

The shipping charge for Tees = $ 16

Now, Let The number of shirts = S

So , According to question

∵ price to be same for both companies

∴ $ 8 × S + $ 13 = $ 7.50 × S + $ 16

Or, $ 8 × S - $ 7.50 × S = $ 16 - $ 13

Or, 0.5 S = 3

∴ S = [tex]\frac{3}{0.5}[/tex]

I.e  S = 6

Hence The number of shirts to be purchased for price to be same is 6 . Answer

[tex]\frac{1+\tan x}{\sin x+\cos x}=\sec x[/tex] is proved

Given that,

[tex]\frac{1+\tan x}{\sin x+\cos x}=\sec x[/tex]  ------- (1)

First we will simplify the LHS and then compare it with RHS

[tex]\text { L. H.S }=\frac{1+\tan x}{\sin x+\cos x}[/tex]  ------ (2)

[tex]\text {We know that } \tan x=\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}[/tex]

Substitute this in eqn (2)

[tex]=\frac{1+\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}}{\sin x+\cos x}[/tex]

On simplification we get,

[tex]=\frac{\frac{\sin x+\cos x}{\cos x}}{\sin x+\cos x}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{\sin x+\cos x}{\cos x} \times \frac{1}{\sin x+\cos x}[/tex]

Cancelling the common terms (sinx + cosx)

[tex]=\frac{1}{c o s x}[/tex]

We know secant is inverse of cosine

[tex]=\sec x=R . H . S[/tex]

Thus L.H.S = R.H.S

[tex]\frac{1+\tan x}{\sin x+\cos x}=\sec x[/tex]

Hence proved

Answer:

Answer (d):  (5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the substitution method.  Eliminate "x" in the second equation.  Solving the first equation for x, we get  x = -3y - 1.  Subbing this for x in the second equation, we get:

2(-3y - 1) + 2y = 6, or, after multiplying as indicated,

-6y - 2 + 2y = 6.

Combining like terms,

-4y = 8, so that y = -2.  If y = -2, then x is found from x = -3y - 1 (see above):

x = -3(-2) -1 = 5

Then the solution is (5, -2)  (Answer d)

Answer:

the three consecutive odd integers are 9, 11, and 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the first odd integer is x. The second consecutive odd integer would have to be x+2. (It would not be x+1  because that would result in an even integer. The sum of any two odd numbers is even.) The third consecutive odd integer would be (x+2) +2 or x+4.

The sum of the first, twice the second, and three times the third can be written as:

x+2(x+2)+3(x+4)

This equals 70. We can now distribute and solve for x:

x+2(x+2)+3(x+4)=70

x+2x+4+3x+12=70(distribute)

6x+16=70(combine like terms)

6x=54(subtract 16 from both sides)

x=9(divide by 9)

Thus, the three consecutive odd integers are 9, 11, and 13

Answer:

Because Alternate Interior angles are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP - I:

[tex]$ m \angle {5} = 3 . m \angle {\{3}\} $[/tex]

Reason:

This is the given data.

STEP - II:

It has multiplied and the reason is mentioned as well.

STEP - III:

[tex]$ m \angle{3} + m \angle{5} $[/tex] = 45° + 135° = 180°

Reason:

It has substituted the value of [tex]$ m\angle{5} $[/tex] from the previous step. The sum of [tex]$ m\angle{3} $[/tex] and [tex]$ m \angle{5} $[/tex] is 180°.

STEP - IV:

[tex]$ a \parallel b $[/tex]

Reason:

We calculated [tex]$ m\angle{5}[/tex] to be 135°.

Note that [tex]$ \angle {5} $[/tex] and [tex]$ \angle{6} $[/tex] are on the same line. That means their sum should be 180°.

i.e., [tex]$ m\angle{5} + m\angle{6} $[/tex] = 180°.

[tex]$ \implies $[/tex] 135° + [tex]$ m\angle{6} $[/tex] = 180°.

[tex]$ \implies m\angle{6} = $[/tex] 45°.

One of the ways to prove [tex]$ a \parallel b $[/tex] is to check if alternate interior angles are equal.

Here, [tex]$ m\angle{3} $[/tex] and [tex]$ m \angle {6} $[/tex] are alternate interior angles and they are equal.

[tex]$ \implies a \parallel b $[/tex].
