Answer:

0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is used to measure the relationship between how two variables change. In this question, the two variables are cars speed and gas mileage. Since the speedometers were wrong as they were 5 mph too high in a constant manner, then the correlation between how changes in speed affect gas mileage will not be changed.

For example, if we are measuring how an increase of 15 mph decreased gas mileage, we are looking at the change in speed and it is the same if we start with 75 mph and then increase speed to 90 mph, or if we start with 45 mph and then increase to 60 mph. The change in speed for both cases will remain unchanged at 10 mph.

Now, since we have seen that the change in speed remains unchanged and since correlation coefficient is a measure of the relationship between how two variables change, then the new value of the correlation coefficient will remain the same as 0.45.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a) Just add 1 square on the right and 1 square on top for figure 4. Add 1 more in each place for figure 5.

b) Each stage adds a square above and a square to the right. The pattern never decreases. This trend is shown by figures 1, 2, and 3.

c) Figure 0 would be a single square. Simply follow the pattern in reverse. As the figure number decreases, squares are removed from the right and the top rather than added.

Consider a parallelogram with vertices at (0, 3), (2, 0), (4, 2), and (2, 5).
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

So a reflection over the x is a change in the y value.

Only point (2,0) is on the x-axis, so it will not move.

The area of a rectangle is 25/42 and its width is 5/6. What is the length? ASAP
Serhud [2]

Answer:

<h2>length =  \frac{25}{28}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be l

Area of a rectangle = length × width

From the question

Area = 25/42

width = 5/6

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the length

That's

<h3>length =  \frac{area}{width}</h3>

So we have

<h3>length =  \frac{25}{42}  \div  \frac{4}{6}  \\  =  \frac{25}{42}  \times  \frac{6}{4}  \\  =  \frac{25}{7}  \times  \frac{1}{4}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>\frac{25}{28}</h3>

Hope this helps you

Rewrite the equation 8x + 6x^2 -7=x^2 in standard form and identify a, b, and c.
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

5x^2+8x-7=0\\a=5\\b=8\\c=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic is ax^2+bx+c=0. You need to subtract the x^2 from the right to set the quadratic equal to 0. Then a,b, and c are equal to the values of the coefficients in front of the terms.

If this helped, a brainliest would be greatly appreciated!
