Question 3 (Essay Worth 10 points) (05.07 MC) The scatter plot shows the number of strawberries that have been picked on the far

m during the month of February: A scatter plot with points showing an upward trend with points that are moderately spread out from a line of best fit. The y axis is labeled Number of Strawberries and the x axis is labeled Days in February Part A: Using computer software, a correlation coefficient of r = 0.01 was calculated. Based on the scatter plot, is that an accurate value for this data? Why or why not? (5 points) Part B: Instead of comparing the number of strawberries picked and the day in February, write a scenario that would be a causal relationship for strawberries picked on the farm. (5 points)

It's not an accurate value for the data based on the scatter plot, r = 0.01 is not an accurate value for this data, because 0.01 means practically no correlation, while the points on the graph are moderately correlated

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

1. Part A:

Since the points in the scatter plot show a moderated upward trend, you must expect a correlation coefficient close to ± 0.5. A correlation coefficient of 0.01 is too close to 0, which would mean that the points are almost not correlated at all.

The correlation coefficients, r, measure the strength of the correlation of two variables and they can have values from - 1 to  1.

Here, r = - 1 is a perfect negative correlation as the points will adjust perfectly to a line with negative slope.

r =  + 1 is a perfect positive correlation: the points will ajdust perfectly to a line with positive slope.

r = 0 means that the variables are not correlated at all.

Hence, the closer to zero, the worse the correlation is, and that is what r = 0.01 means, but the graph shows other thing.

Therefore, the calculated value of r = 0.01 is not accurate for this scatter plot.

2. Part B.

A causal relationship means that the explanatory variable (the independent variable) is the cause of the dependent variable.

Hence, you must find a reasonable variable that can be the cause of the number of strawberries picked.

Thus, the scenario could be:

Amout of rainfall in mm (x)         Number of strawberries picked (y)

      100                                                     20

        50                                                     40

        25                                                     80

        12.5                                                  160

        6.25                                                 320

The amount of rainfall is the cause of the number of strawberries picked, and you could find a model that relates both variables.

Find the quotient of n(x) = 6x^5y^7 and m(x) = 2x^3y
likoan [24]

Answer:

a.  Yes

b.  Yes

c. Yes

d. Degree 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, n(x) is a polynomial of one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

b. Yes, m(x) is a polynomial of also one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

c. The quotient of n(x) / m(x) can be reduced to a polynomial of one single term as follows:

\frac{n(x)}{m(x)} =\frac{6\,x^5\,y^7}{2\,x^3\,y} =3\,x^2\,y^6

which as can be seen, also contains variables raised to positive integers.

d. The degree of the polynomial resultant is the addition of the powers of all variables present (x and y) which results in: 2 + 6 = 8

Therefore the degree of this polynomial is 8.
