60% of 20 is (0.6 x 20) = 12 passes
There are a further 30 quizzes remaining (50 total during the year minus 20 already written)
80% of 30 is (0.8 x 30) = 24 passes
The student has passed (12 + 24) = 36 quizzes out of 50 total, giving an overall pass percentage of ((36 / 50) x 100)) = 72%.
Answer:
- strong negative linear correlation
- -0.986
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to notice that when altitude goes up, temperature goes down. That means the correlation is negative.
The table shows the temperature decrease to be monotonic (nowhere does it go up when altitude increases), so the correlation is strong.
The strong negative correlation number available to you is -0.986.
___
If you want confirmation, you can put the numbers into your favorite graphing calculator and tell it to compute the correlation for you.
