3/8 of a foot = 3/8 x 12/1  or 4  1/2 inches

So our 1/2 inch grows by a factor of 9  because 4 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 9  Think how many 1/2 dollars are in 4  1/2 dollars.  (Answer is 9)

So our 8 4/9 in the catalog has to grow the same

8  4/9   x 9  = 8  4/9  x 9/1 = 76/9 x 9/1  or 76 inches which is 6 ft 4 inches.
(76 ÷12 = 6 r4)

What is most likely the correlation coefficient for the set of data shown shown
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

C) 0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

A correlation coefficient is a measure of how well the line of best fit fits the data.  The higher the correlation coefficient, up to 1.0 or -1.0, the better the fit. A positive correlation coefficient means an increasing data set, while a negative correlation coefficient means a decreasing data set.

We can see that this line of best fit is increasing, so our correlation coefficient will be positive.

However we can also see that the points are fairly scattered; this means this is not a very good fit.  This means that 0.19 is the better fit.

X/6 + 4 = 15 what does x equal? What is x?
Umnica [9.8K]
Hello there! x = 66.

x/6 + 4 = 15

This means that since 15 - 4 = 11, x/6 = 11.

Given the two numbers and a variable, we can multiply:

6 x 11 = 66

66/6 = 11

Therefore, x = 66

Hope this helps!
