The original area is <span>48 square feet.

The area after the decrease in the dimensions is </span><span>24 square feet​ .

Which relationship would most likely have a positive correlation?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only thing to do here is just check all of the answers.

A makes no sense, as the number of keys on a keyboard doesn't affect the amount of memory in a computer at all (no correlation).

B makes a bit more sense, but it's still wrong. If a train travels faster, it gets places quicker, or the time goes down. If (If one goes up, the other goes down) is true, then you have negative correlation.

C makes the most sense, as if there's more people at a game, then those more people will probably buy more hot dogs. If (If one goes up, so does the other) is true, then you have positive correlation, which is what we want.

Solve the equation: 5 + 2(3 + 2x) = x + 3(x + 1)
Ann [662]

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you would be solving for x.

Solve:

5 + 2(3 + 2x) = x + 3(x + 1)

Use the distributive property.

5 + 6 + 4x = x + 3x + 3

Combine like terms.

11 + 4x = 4x + 3

Subtract 4x from both sides.

11 = 3

Since we don't have an "x value", there are no solutions.

"No solutions" would be your answer.
