A researcher observes that, on average, the number of divorces in cities with major league baseball teams is larger than in citi

es without major league baseball teams. The most plausible explanation for this observed association is
A. the association is due to the presence of a confounding variable, namely the population of the city. (Major league teams tend to be in large cities with more people, hence a greater number of divorces.)
B. the observed association is purely coincidental. It is implausible to believe the observed association could be anything other than accidental.
C. the presence of a major league baseball team causes the number of divorces to rise (perhaps husbands are spending too much time at the ballpark).
D. the high number of divorces is responsible for the presence of a major league baseball teams (more single men means potentially more fans at the ballpark, making it attractive for an owner to relocate to such cities).
E. None of the above.

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Cities where there are major league baseball teams will have high population density. i.e densely populated

This is because baseball will attract several teams of players, coaches, lines men, instructors, spectators and supporters who would like participate in the game.

A major league attracts both local and international players and spectators thereby causing a mixed concentration of both citizens and non-citizens.

This therefore will accommodate several divorced citizens and non-citizens into the city.

Asphere which has a diameter of 6 inches has a volume of:
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

9.42 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the volume for a sphere, we use the formula V = πr. For the sake of simplicity, we will be using 3.14 for π. Before we plug anything in, let's get our radius. Remember, the radius is half of the diameter.

Equation: d = 2r

Replace: 6 = 2r

Divide: 3 = r

Now that we have our radius, let's plug in what we have and solve.

Equation: V = 3.14r

Replace: V = 3.14(3)

Multiply: V = 9.42

Remember, volume is measured in cubic units, so use cubic inches for the unit here.

Identify the factors of x2-8x-20
sukhopar [10]
Simplifying x2 + -8x = 20 Reorder the terms: -8x + x2 = 20 Solving -8x + x2 = 20 Solving for variable 'x'. Reorder the terms: -20 + -8x + x2 = 20 + -20 Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0 -20 + -8x + x2 = 0 Factor a trinomial. (-2 + -1x)(10 + -1x) = 0 Subproblem 1Set the factor '(-2 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -2 + -1x = 0 Solving -2 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + -1x = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + 2 -1x = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2 -1x = 2 Divide each side by '-1'. x = -2 Simplifying x = -2 Subproblem 2Set the factor '(10 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 10 + -1x = 0 Solving 10 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-10' to each side of the equation. 10 + -10 + -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -10 -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10 -1x = -10 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 10 Simplifying x = 10Solutionx = {-2, 10}

Yuki888 [10]

We need to multiply 4/5 by 4 5/8. We change 4 5/8 into a fraction to do the multiplication.

4/5 * 4 5/8 =

= 4/5 * 37/8

= 148/40

= 37/10

= 3 7/10

Answer: Sara's sister is 3 7/10 ft tall.
