<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

Explanation:

As the person spends more time raking, the number of leaves will go down. Therefore, we have a negative correlation. Such correlations occur when one variable goes up while the other goes down (and vice versa).

The reason why it's considered negative correlation is because the regression line has a negative slope.

This is why choice C is the answer. This assumes that no extra leaves fall on the ground, and we assume that we don't have nearby leaves blow into the yard.

In contrast, something like choice A has both variables go up together. As the temperature rises, so does the ice cream sales. The same goes for choice B. We consider these cases to have positive correlation. Choice D doesn't appear to have any correlation at all. The person's height doesn't have any connection to the number of pets they may have.

Non linear:

y = 6 -x^2

y = 2x^2 + 2

y = x^3

Rate of change is also the slope

= (72 - 69) / (51 - 48)

= 3/3

= 1

Rate of change = 1

First you need to find slope

(3,0) and (5,2)

Slope = (2 - 0)/(5-3) =2/2 = 1

Equation

y - 0 = 1(x - 3)

y = x - 3

Answer:

Tyler's function is correct as y = x - 3, it matched the above.

What is the value of x in the equation ?2.5(6x-4)=10 4(1.5 0.5x)

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

2.5(6x−4)=(10)(4)(1.5)(0.5)x

(2.5)(6x)+(2.5)(−4)=(10)(4)(1.5)(0.5)x(Distribute)15x+−10=30x
15x−10=30x

15x−10−30x=30x−30x−15x−10=0

−15x−10+10=0+10−15x=10
−15x−15=10−15x=−23
Answer:x=−23

1. Dorothy bought a teddy bear and sold it at a 20% profit to Kim. Kim bought a suit costing $100 and dressed the teddy bear up

makkiz [27]

1. Dorothy paid $200 for the teddy bear

2. y is more than x by $33\frac{1}{3}$ %

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The given is:

Dorothy bought a teddy bear and sold it at a 20% profit to Kim
Kim bought a suit costing $100 and dressed the teddy bear up in the suit
Kim then sold the teddy bear in the suit to Karen for $442
Kim made a profit of 30%

We need to find how much Dorothy paid for the teddy bear

Assume that Dorothy bought a teddy bear for $x

∵ Dorothy bought a teddy bear for $x

∵ She sold it at a profit 20% to Kim

By using the ratio method

→ Buying price : Profit : Selling price

→ 100% : 20% : 120% ⇒ (100% + 20%)

→ x : : ?

By using cross multiplication

∴ 100% × Selling price = x × 120%

- Divide both sides by 100%

∴ Selling price = 1.2x

∴ Dorothy sold the teddy bear for $1.2x to Kim

∵ Kim bought a suit costing $100 and dressed the teddy bear

up in the suit

∴ The cost of the teddy bear = 1.2x + 100

∵ Kim sold the teddy bear in the suit to Karen for $442

∵ Kim made a profit of 30%

By using the ratio method

→ Cost price : Profit : Selling price

→ 100% : 30% : 130% ⇒ (100% + 30%)

→ 1.2x + 100 : : 442

By using cross multiplication

∴ (1.2x + 100) × 130% = 100% × 422

- Divide both sides by 130%

∴ 1.2x + 100 = 340

- Subtract 100 from both sides

∴ 1.2x = 240

- Divide both sides by 1.2

∴ x = 200

∴ Dorothy bought the teddy bear for $200

Dorothy paid $200 for the teddy bear

2. The given is:

x is less than y by 25%
Then y is more than x by how many percent

Assume that y is 100%

∵ y = 100%

∵ x is less than y by 25%

∴ x = 100% - 25%

∴ x = 75%

- The percentage of increasing of y = $\frac{y-x}{x}$ × 100%

∵ The percentage of increasing of y = $\frac{100-75}{75}$ × 100%

∴ The percentage of increasing of y = $\frac{25}{75}$ × 100%

∴ The percentage of increasing of y = $\frac{1}{3}$ × 100%

∴ The percentage of increasing of y = $33\frac{1}{3}$ %

y is more than x by $33\frac{1}{3}$ %
