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.

Use the drop-down menus to complete the proof. Given that w ∥ x and y is a transversal, we know that ∠1 ≅∠5 by the . Therefore,
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

From the graph attached, we know that \angle 1 \cong \angle 5 by the corresponding angle theorem, this theorem is about all angles that derive form the intersection of one transversal line with a pair of parallels. Specifically, corresponding angles are those which are placed at the same side of the transversal, one interior to parallels, one exterior to parallels, like \angle 1 and \angle 5.

We also know that, by definition of linear pair postulate, \angle 3 and \angle 1 are linear pair. Linear pair postulate is a math concept that defines two angles that are adjacent and for a straight angle, which is equal to 180°.

They are supplementary by the definition of supplementary angles. This definition states that angles which sum 180° are supplementary, and we found that \angle 3 and \angle 1 together are 180°, because they are on a straight angle. That is, m \angle 3 + m \angle 1 = 180\°

If we substitute \angle 5 for \angle 1, we have m \angle 3 + m \angle 5 = 180\°, which means that \angle 3 and \angle 5 are also supplementary by definition.

Haleigh split 4/9 of a gallon of juice into 8 cups. How much juice was in each cup?
Brut [27]

━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━

▹ Answer

<em>1/18 of a gallon of juice in each cup.</em>

▹ Step-by-Step Explanation

Since we have 4/9 of a gallon of juice for 8 cups, we will divide to find the amount of juice in each cup.

\frac{4}{9} / 8

Since this operation is division, we have to change 8 to it's reciprocal which is 1/8:

\frac{4}{9}/ \frac{1}{8} = \frac{4}{72} = \frac{1}{18}

Our final answer will be 1/18 of a gallon of juice in each cup.

Hope this helps!

Convert the angle 61 38’ 45” to decimal degrees, and round to the nearest hundredth of a degree
slega [8]
A suitable calculator* can do this easily.

61°38'45" = (61 +(38 +45/60)/60)° ≈ 61.65°

_____
I like the RealCalc app for Android, but many graphing calculators also will do this conversion. Of course, you can simply evaluate the expression as above.
