Answer:

B. The correlation is due to a third variable: weather

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a positive correlation between the percent of people who swim outdoors and number of barbeque grills sold. This means that that the number of grills sold increases when more people swim outdoors and vice versa. These two things are not directly connected as you don't need to have a barbeque when you swim and you don't need to swim when you have a barbeque. However, both of these things are done more frequently when the weather is warm. Therefore, the correlation is due to a third variable, the weather.

babymother [125]

Answer:

2.9 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The time difference t between 12.30pm and 3.30pm is 3h.

Let the distance to Marat's house be s.

The equation to calculate velocity v is given by:

v = distance / time.

Now you can write an equation for the time difference t and use the two velocities and the 90 min(= 1.5h) she stays:

3 = s/12 + 1.5 + s/2.3

Solve this equation for s:

(1/12 + 10/23)* s = 1.5

s = 2.9

Which equation is parallel to the graph of y = 2x-5 and goes through the point (3,9)?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is 2 so the line parallel will have a slope of 2

y-9 = 2(x-3)

y-9= 2x - 6

Which statement does NOT correctly compare silicon with another element? A) Silicon is a better conductor of electricity than su
Vesna [10]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Silicon is a member of Group 14 (IVA) in the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to one another. Silicon is also part of the the carbon family. Other carbon family elements include carbon, germanium, tin, and lead. Silicon is a metalloid, one of only a very few elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.

Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust, exceeded only by oxygen. Many rocks and minerals contain silicon. Examples include sand, quartz, clays, flint, amethyst, opal, mica, feldspar, garnet, tourmaline, asbestos, talc, zircon, emerald, and aquamarine. Silicon never occurs as a free element. It is always combined with one or more other elements as a compound.By the early 1800s, silicon was recognized as an element. But chemists had serious problems preparing pure silicon because it bonds (attaches) tightly to oxygen. It took chemists many years to find out how to separate silicon from oxygen. That task was finally accomplished in 1823 by Swedish chemist Jons Jakob Berzelius (1779-1848).

Silicon's most important application is in electronic equipment. Silicon is one of the best materials from which to make transistors and computer chips. The total weight of silicon used for this purpose is relatively small. Much larger amounts are used, for example, to make metal alloys. An alloy is made by melting and mixing two or more metals. The mixture has properties different from those of the individual metals.
