Answer:

C. Must be 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient of an equation represents the relation between the  two variable ( dependent and independent )

It lies between -1 to 1,

If an equation has strongly positive correlation then the value of correlation coefficient is 1,

If there is no relation then the value of correlation is 0,

If there is strongly negative relation then the value of correlation coefficient is -1,

Here, the equation is,

y = 2 + 3x

Since, the value of y is increasing with increasing the value of x,

We can say that there is strong positive relation between the variables x and y,

Hence, by the above statements,

The correlation coefficient between y and x in this data set must be 1.

Option 'C' is correct.

2x+y=-10
Multiply both side by 3
2x*3+y*3=-10*3
6x+3y=-30

3x-y=0
Multiply both side by 2
3x*2-y*2=0*2
6x-2y=0
Next, use substitute property
6x+3y=-30
    -
6x-2y=0
    =
y=-30
3x-y=0
Substitute y with -30
3x-30=0
Add 30 to each side
3x-30+30=0+30
3x=30
Divided both side by 3
3x/3=30/3
x=10, so the solution pair is (10,-30). In this case, there is the first way to solve these two equation.
Then, I would use equation 3x+1.5y=-15 in this question by multiply 2x+y=-10 by multiplying both side by 3/2 to eliminate x and to solve variables for y. Hope it help!

For questions 1 and 2, use factoring to find the x-intercepts of these quadratic equations.
Marysya12 [62]
1.x^2 +6x - 4 = 6x
X^2 + 6x -4 - 6x = 0
X^2 - 4 = 0
By difference of two squares :
X^2 - 4 = 0 can be written as (x-2) (x+2) = 0
(X-2)=0 therefore x= 2

(X+2)=0 therefore x= -2

2. X^2 - 8x = -6x
X^2 -8x + 6x = 0
X^2 - 2x = 0
X(X-2) = 0
X= 0, X= 2

How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle measures 30 degree
Nataly [62]
As the exterior angles always add up to 360, you can find the number of sides by dividing 360 by the measure of your exterior angle, 30. This gives you 360/30=12, meaning your polygon has 12 sides.
