Let the youngest sister be n years
Lana will be 2n years, as her youngest sister is half her age
The age of the twins separately will be 2n-2 as they are 2 years younger than Lana
So, the equation looks like this:
n + 2n + 2(2n-2) = 45
Now solve for n:
3n + 4n - 4 = 45
7n - 4 = 45
7n = 49
n = 7
So the youngest sister is 7, Lana is 14 and the twins are 12. 14 + 12 + 12 + 7 =45

The following correlations were computed as part of a multiple regression analysis that used education, job, and age to predict
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Job has the weakest association with the dependent variable income.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is used to determine the the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables.

It is denoted by <em>r</em> and the value of <em>r</em> ranges from -1.00 to 1.00.

The correlation data provided is as follows:

                    Income    Education    Job     Age

Income         1.000      

Education     0.677        1.000

Job                0.173         -0.181        1.000

Age               0.369        0.073        0.689   1.000

The dependent variable is the income.

And the variables Education, Job and Age are independent variables.

The correlation between Income and Job is 0.173.

This is the lowest correlation coefficient between the dependent and independent variable.

Thus, Job has the weakest association with the dependent variable income.

Find x<br> A. 22√2<br> B. 22<br> C. 11√3/3<br> D. 11√3
mel-nik [20]

Answer

22\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First we gave a name to the side that is common for both triangles, can be Y for example.

Using trigonometric functions we can make a relationship between the two angles that we have and the magnitud of the side.

sin(45)=\frac{11}{Y}  \\ , Because sin(x)= op/hip

cos(60)=\frac{Y}{x} , Because con(x)=ad/hip

Having this equations, we can solve the system and find x

Y=\frac{11}{sin(45)} \\Y=cos(60)*x

we equal Y and solve

\frac{11}{sin(45)}=cos(60)*x\\ x=\frac{11}{sin(45)*cos(60)} \\x=\frac{11}{\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} *\frac{1}{2} } \\x=\frac{11}{\frac{\sqrt{2} }{4} } \\x=\frac{44}{\sqrt{2} }\\

Then we rationalize

x=22\sqrt{2}

Hope you like it!
