LAVC Linear Equation Math Problems

Question Description

I’m working on a algebra writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

1) A Linear Equation is a rule that assigns to each number x on the x-axis exactly one number y on the y – axis so that the ordered pairs (x,y) form a line. We call y the Dependent Variable and we call x the Independent Variable because the value assigned to y by the linear equation will depend on the value selected for x.

Now consider this scenario: we can burn 4 calories by walking 100 steps. The linear equation modeling this scenario is C=0.04*S where C is the dependent variable and S is the independent variable. Here, C represents calories burned for some number of steps S walked.

You will create a new linear model that shows the amount of calories burned in a given day during some activity you choose, compensating for food intake. Produce a model with a reasonable rate of calorie burn for walking, running, or some other activity, and account for a daily calorie intake between 1200 and 3000 calories. Be sure to describe the detailed scenario for which your equation models. Conclude your post by rewording the following questions to fit your scenario:

1) How many calories have been burned after 1 typical session of activity?

2) How much activity does it take to burn all the calories eaten in one day?

2)x3 times x2 is not equal to x6. Why not? What is it? Please write a new exponent rule problem for others to solve – try to make a problem that requires different exponent rules to solve.

You can type exponential expressions and fractions using Equation tool under Insert in the menu bar.

3) In the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz, upon being presented with a Th.D. (Doctor of Thinkology), the Scarecrow proudly exclaims, “The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side.” Analyze the statement made by the Scarecrow. Present your analysis and give a complete description of the triangles that satisfy the statement.

Find another example of math being used in:
Movies, television, popular culture, art, music and harmonics, scientific research papers, newspapers or magazine articles, nature and natural phenomena, voting, national security, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, healthcare, business, economics, or some noteworthy or pivotal historical moment.

Research and explain whether or not the math was used correctly.

For initial post, please respond to this week’s discussion prompt. You must

  1. analyze the statement made by the Scarecrow and
  2. find another example of math being used in movies, art, etc.

Here is my example of math being used in a movie.

In the 2001 movie A Beautiful Mind, John Nash Jr, a mathematical genius uses a Game Theory concept to analyze a certain situation happening at the bar and introduces Nash equilibrium concept. The situation at the bar was well analyzed as a congestion game

4) The solutions of the quadratic equation Ax2+Bx+C=0 are called roots and are given by a famous equation called the Quadratic Formula. In the quadratic formula, the terms B2 – 4AC underneath the radical have a special name: the Discriminant.

Discuss the relationship between the discriminant of a quadratic polynomial and the quantity of real roots it possesses. Explain the positioning of the roots of the polynomial on its graph with respect to the discriminant and the sign of the discriminant.

UTD Statistics Partisan Conflict Index in The US Federal Goverment Discussion

Description

In Chapter 1, you learned that data are observations that you or someone else (or something else) records.You also learned that data are more than just numbers or lists of characteristics. David Moore, a well-known statistician, defined data as “numbers in context.” By this he meant that data consist not only of numbers we record, but also of the story behnid the numbers. For example, 70. 75, 70, 70, 65 are just numbers. But in fact these numbers represent the maximum allowable speed limit for cars on a rural interstate in mph. Now these numbers have a context and have been elevated to data. So data has context and can be much more interesting than numbers right?

Data plays a pivotal role in or economy, culture, and everyday lives. A lot of the data in this textook is concerned with data collected for what we might call “professional” purposes such as answering scientific questions or making business decisions. But in fact, data is everywhere. Google, for example, saves every search you make and combines this with data on which links you click in order to improve the way it presents information (and, of course, to determine which advertisements will appear on your search results).

Data tells a story. Understanding the context of the data helps to determine the story that the data is trying to tell. In Chapter 2, you learned how to graphically display qualitative and quantitative data. Recall the statistical process revolves around a research topic. This topic will usually include a narrative to get the context of the data you will need to collect.

Discussion Board Resource: How to Tell a Story With Data

Initial Post – Read the article How to Tell a Story With Data to help you to write a narrative that could possible describe the data collected and used to construct the time-series graph shown in the time-series plot below. Your narrative should include at least 5 sentences.

The time-series graph displays the partisan conflict index in the United States Government. United States Gove
You might also consider the following questions to help you to get a better idea of the context of the data and write your narrative.

  • What are the objects of interest?
  • What variables were measured?
  • How were they measured?
  • What are the units of measurement?
  • Who collected the data?
  • How did they collect the data?
  • Where were the data collected?
  • Why were the data collected?

Oil Company Tree Problem Worksheet

Description

A hugeinternational oil company is considering its strategy in the Arctic Sea. The UK government has announced that a new drilling site in the Arctic Sea will be offered for sale on a competitive tender basis, the site going to the company making the highest bid. Temporary exploration of the site indicates that, over its life, it can be expected to generate revenue of around £1500 million if the oil reserves turn out to be high, but only £500 million if they turn out to be low. Seismic tests have indicated that the probability of high reserves is 0.60.

If the company is successful in its bid, it will also have to decide whether to construct a new oil rig for the site or to move an existing oil rig which is currently operating at an uneconomic site. The costs of the new rig are around £250 million and for moving the existing rig around £100 million. A new rig would be able to boost production by £150 million if reserve levels turned out to be high. The company has decided that if it is to bid for the site, the maximum bid it can afford at present, because of its cash flow situation, is £750 million. In the past, 70 per cent of the company’s bids for such sites have been successful.

However, the company is also under pressure to refurbish some of its existing rigs for both efficiency and safety reasons. The £750 million could be used for this purpose instead. If the money is used for refurbishment, there is a 50 per cent chance of increasing efficiency to generate a return on the £750 million of 5 per cent, and a 50 per cent chance of generating a return of 10 per cent. If the decision to refurbish takes place after the bid has been made and failed, only £500 million will be available.

Question Description

I’m working on a statistics exercise and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

1.Whileattempting to measure its risk exposure for the upcoming year, aninsurance company notices a trend between the age of a customer and thenumber of claims per year. It appears that the number of claims keepgoing up as customers age. After performing a regression, they find thatthe relationship is (number of claims per year) = 2.046*(age) + 4.976.Interpret the slope.

1)

When number of claims per year increases by 1 claim, age increases by 4.976 years.

2)

When number of claims per year increases by 1 claim, age increases by 2.046 years.

3)

When age increases by 1 year, number of claims per year increases by 2.046 claims per year.

4)

When age increases by 1 year, number of claims per year increases by 4.976 claims per year.

5)

We are not given the dataset, so we cannot make an interpretation.

2.Supposethat in a certain city, the rent of an apartment is proportional to thesize of the apartment in square feet. You use regression to try toquantify this relationship and the regression output from a sample of 10apartments is shown below. What can we conclude about the slope ofsize?

1)

Since we are not given the dataset, we do not have enough information to determine if the slope differs from 0.

2)

Not enough evidence was found to conclude the slope differs significantly from 0.

3)

The slope is 0.248 and therefore differs from 0.

4)

The slope is equal to 0.

5)

The slope significantly differs from 0.

3.Suppose that a researcher wants to predict the weight of female collegeathletes based on their height, percent body fat, and age. A sample istaken and the following regression table is produced. Based on theF-test alone, what is the correct conclusion about the regressionslopes?

1)

We do not have the dataset, therefore, we are unable to make a conclusion about the slopes.

2)

All the regression slopes do not equal zero.

3)

All the regression slopes are equal to zero.

4)

At least one of the regression slopes does not equal zero.

5)

We did not find significant evidence to conclude that at least one slop
