In a residual plot against x that does not suggest we should challenge the assumptions of our regression model, we would expect to see a

a. widening band of points around the x-axis.
b. band of points having a slope consistent with that of the regression equation
c. parabolic band of points centered at the origin.
d. horizontal band of points centered near zero.

Asequence has its first term equal to 4, and each term of the sequence is obtained by adding 2 to the previous term. if f(n) represents the nth term of the sequence, which of the following recursive functions best defines this sequence? (1 point) f(1) = 2 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4; n > 1 f(1) = 4 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 2n; n > 1 f(1) = 2 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4n; n > 1 f(1) = 4 and f(n) = f(n − 1) + 2; n > 1 i will award !

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), a subject is told that cards only the experimenter can see contain either a star, a circle, a wave, or a square. as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. a subject who is just guessing has probability 0.25 of guessing correctly on each card. a. the count of correct guesses in 20 cards has a binomial distribution. what are n and p? b. what is the mean number of correct guesses in 20 cards for subjects who are just guessing? c. what is the probability of exactly 5 correct guesses in 20 cards if a subject is just guessing?

Set up and solve a proportion for the following application problem. if 55 pounds of grass seed cover 404 square feet, how many pounds are needed for 7272 square feet?
