Answer:

The distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars is 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have drawn the diagram four reference.

Given:

the slide is 12 feet due west of the tire swing

So according the diagram;

TS = 12 feet

Also Given:

slide is 16 feet due south of the monkey bars.

So according the diagram;

MS = 16 feet

We need to find the distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars.

according to diagram we need to find the MT.

Solution:

assuming it to be right angle triangle with right angle at S.

we have;

In Δ MTS;

\angle S = 90\°

TS = 12 feet

MS = 16 feet

Now applying Pythagoras theorem which states that;

"Sum of the square of the two side of the triangle is equal to square of the hypotenuse."

framing in equation form we get;

MT^2=TS^2+MS^2

Substituting the values we get;

MT^2= 12^2+16^2= 144+256 =400

Taking square root on both side we get;

\sqrt{MT^2}=\sqrt{400} \\ \\MT =20\ ft

Hence the distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars is 20 feet.

In one study, it was found that the correlation coefficient between two variables is -0.98. Which statement is true?
Vadim26 [7]

<u>Answer- </u>D. There is a strong negative association between the variables

<u>Solution-</u>

Properties of Correlation Coefficient

1-  Its value ranges between -1 and 1.

2- The greater the absolute value of correlation coefficient, the stronger is the linear relationship.

3- The weakest linear relationship is indicated by a correlation coefficient equal to 0.

4- A positive correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get bigger.

5- A negative correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get smaller.

As the given correlation coefficient is -0.98 (-ve), whose absolute value is 0.98 (closer to 1)

So there is a strong negative association between the variables.
