A strong positive correlation means that as one variable increases so does the other and that they do so in a linear relationship. So what this means is that “as the rainfall increases, the number of peaches a tree produces increases.”

It does not mean that the rainfall causes the tree to produce more peaches. The correlation only establishes that the two variables are related in that one increases as the other does. It is NOT the case that this means for sure one causes the other. We cannot assume causality when using a correlation.

It might be that the rain causes more peaches to grown or it might be that some other factor or combination of factors causes the growth. We just do not know.

Is 7/20 less than 0.305
Serggg [28]

Answer:

No, it is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to find out is to make the two figures fraction and make the denominators the same.

7/20 * 50/50 > 305/1000

350/1000 > 305/1000

0.35 > 0.305

Find the values of x and y in the diagram.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

x = 15

y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔTUR is a 60°-60°-60° triangle because all angles are equal and  180/3 is 60

therefore, the angle adjacent to ∡R is 120 because it forms a straight line (which measures 180 degrees)

that means that angles T and S (which are both 3y°) plus angle R equal 180 so you can set up this equation to find y:  120 +6y = 180

                                                                6y = 60

                                                                 y = 10

Because angles T and S are the same we know that TR and TS are also the same, so RT is 15

ΔTUR is equiangular which means it is also equilateral; so if RT is 15 then UT and UR are 15 also

If UT = 15, we can write this equation: x - 5 = 15 and find that x = 20

se quiere pintar una pared en forma de hexágono regular y se sabe que cada lado mide 3m y que su apotema es de 2,8m ¿cual es el
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

16.8 metros cuadrados.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dado que se quiere pintar una pared en forma de hexágono regular y se sabe que cada lado mide 3m y que su apotema es de 2,8m, y que el área de un hexágono es igual al perímetro multiplicado por la apotema, y dicho resultado dividido por 2, para determinar cuál es el área que se va a pintar se debe realizar el siguiente calculo:

((6x3) x 2.8) / 2 = X

(12 x 2.8) / 2 = X

33.6 / 2 = X

16.8 = X

Así, el área que se va a pintar es de 16.8 m2.
