Here is a correlation, does it also represent causation? Explain you answer.

1 answer:

4 0

Yes, there is causation between the two given variables, as the weight is related at some point with the amount of calories consumed.

<h3>What does correlation and causation mean?</h3>

For two variables x and y, we say that there is causation when, if we modify one of the variables, the other changes in response.

Correlation just means that the variables are related in some way (maybe both have a causation relationship with the same other variable)

So causation implies correlation.

Correlation does not imply causation.

In this case, we have the example:

x = The number of additional calories consumed

y = amount of weight gained.

Clearly, we have causation between x and y as larger is the value of x, larger will be the value of x.-

jamerra received a $3,00 car loan. she plans on paying off the loan in 2 years. at the end of 2 years, jamerra will have paid $4

leonid [27]

The rate of interest is 75 % per year

Solution:

Given that, Jamerra received a $3,00 car loan

she plans on paying off the loan in 2 years

Jamerra will have paid $450 in interest

Therefore, we get

Principal = $ 300

Number of years = 2

Simple Interest = $ 450

Rate of interest = ?

The simple interest is given by formula:

$simple\ Interest = \frac{p \times n \times r}{100}$

Where,

"p" is the principal and "n" is the number of years and "r" is the rate of Interest

Substituting the given values we get,

$450 = \frac{300 \times 2 \times r}{100}\\\\450 = 3 \times 2 \times r\\\\6r = 450\\\\r = \frac{450}{6}\\\\r = 75$

Thus rate of interest is 75 % per year

A positive integer is twice another.the sum of the reciprocal of the two positive integer is 3/14. Find the integers

icang [17]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{14\ \text{and}\ 7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$n,\ m-\text{positive integer}\\\\n=2m-\text{a positive integer is twice another}\\\\\dfrac{1}{n}+\dfrac{1}{m}=\dfrac{3}{14}-\text{the sum of the reciprocal of the two positive integer is }\ \dfrac{3}{14}\\\\\text{We have the system of equations:}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}n=2m&(1)\\\dfrac{1}{n}+\dfrac{1}{m}=\dfrac{3}{14}&(2)\end{array}\right$

$\text{Substitute (1) to (2):}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2m}+\dfrac{1}{m}=\dfrac{3}{14}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2m}+\dfrac{1\cdot2}{m\cdot2}=\dfrac{3}{14}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2m}+\dfrac{2}{2m}=\dfrac{3}{14}\\\\\dfrac{1+2}{2m}=\dfrac{3}{14}\\\\\dfrac{3}{2m}=\dfrac{3}{14}\Rightarrow2m=14\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2m}{2}=\dfrac{14}{2}\\\\\boxed{m=7}$

$\text{Substitute it to (1):}\\\\n=2\cdot7\\\\\boxed{n=14}$
