Information from research studies is sometimes taken out of context. This may happen because the researcher's interpretation of the data is being altered by their own preconceived notions, ideas, beliefs, even cultural values. To correctly interpret data, the researcher must remain completely objective.

For a biology project, you measure the weight in grams and the tail length in millimeters of a group of mice. The correlation is

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a biology project, you measure the weight in grams and the tail length in millimeters of a group of mice.

The correlation is r = 0.9

If you had measured tail length in centimeters instead of millimeters, what would be the correlation?

For this we must understand the meaning of correlation and formula

Correlation is a measure of linear association between the two variables and always lie between -1 and 1

This is got by dividing covariance of (x,y) by product of std deviation of x and y

So because we changed the units of length correlation coefficient would not change.

It would remain the same as 0.90

A density curve for all the possible weights between 0 pounds and 10 pounds is in the shape of a rectangle. What is the value of

Evgesh-ka [11]

The total area under the curve must equal 1. Let the value of the density curve be x. Then 10x = 1. Therefore x = 1/10 or 0.1.
The correct answer is D. 0.1.

An artist purchased 24 high quality canvases to be used for painting this fall. Each week she will allow herself to use three of

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

canvases over weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

w(h) represents how many hours per week

c(t) approximates how many canvases she paints per hour

In function composition, if we have two function f(x) and g(x) then

(f.g)(x) or f(g(x)) means first apply g(), then apply f() i.e. applying function f to the results of function g.

Now we have c(w(h)), this means first we apply w(h) which will give us hours per week and then we'll apply function 'c' on the results of 'w' (that is number of hours for weeks painted). As result we'll get number of canvas per week!

A man throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 96 ft/s. Use the formula h=−16 t 2 + v 0 t to determine when the height of t

Ann [662]

Answer:

Assuming that v0 represents the initial velocity, then v0 = 96 ft/s. Substitute this value into h(t) and set the equation equal to 48. Then, write this quadratic equation in standard form, which is ax² + bx+ c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants. Either use factoring or the Quadratic Function to solve the equation for t. Remember that t must be positive, because it represents a unit of time.

The ratio of three numbers is 4 : 3 : 1. the sum of the numbers is 64. the greatest of these three numbers is

DanielleElmas [232]

Total value of ratio = 4+3+1 = 8

value of 1 unit = 64/8 = 8

numbers are 4(8), 3(8), 1(8) = 32, 24, 8

so, the greatest number is 32
