Assuming a linear relationship between x and y, if the coefficient of correlation (r) equals -0.75, this means that:

Since we are given that the relationship between x and y is linear. Therefore this means that the given equation takes the form of:

y = m x + b

where,

b is the y intercept of the equation

m is the slope of the equation

 

However we should take note that the slope m is directly proportional to the coefficient of correlation. Since our coefficient of correlation is negative, this only means that the value of y is decreasing with increasing x, hence plot of y and x is descending with increasing x. Furthermore, this also tells that for every 1 unit increase of x, there is a 0.75 units decrease of y.

Tyler made 9 1/2 cups of lemonade. He offers 3/4-cup servings of lemonade to some relatives at a family pinic. What is the GREAT
Savatey [412]
Divide the total portion (9 1/2 cups) by the portion size (3/4 cup).

=9 1/2 ÷ 3/4
convert 9 1/2 to improper fraction

=19/2 ÷ 3/4
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 3/4

=19/2 * 4/3
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

=(19*4)/(2*3)

=76/6

=12.666666


ANSWER: The greatest number he can offer servings to is C) 12

Hope this helps! :)
