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.

I need help with this question
MrMuchimi
Part a:
this is really just intuition. you can go either way as long as you back up what you say.
either you think hunter would be faster because he starts out with a lot more money, or you think amado would be faster because he earns a lot more.

part b:
let x be the number of hours hunter works, and y the number that amado works.
they both need to earn 600 dollars.

hunter's money is modelled by 150 + 7.5x
to get 600 dollars
150 + 7.5x = 600
7.5x = 450
x = 60

amado's money is modelled by 12y
to get 600 dollars
12y = 600
y = 50

hunter would need to work 60 hours to make enough money, but amado would only need to work 50, so hunter will take longer.

then say whether this agrees with what you guessed in part a

What is the solution set of {x | x < 2} {x | x ≥ 2}? all numbers less than -5 and greater than 5 the empty set the numbers be
juin [17]

Answer:

The solution set is the empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:

{x | x < 2} is the set of all numbers less than 2. This means x can take values such as 1.99, 0, -2000 and so on. That is, all values less than 2.

{x | x ≥ 2} is the set of all numbers equal to or greater than 2. This means x can take values such as 2, 2.1, 5000, and so on. That is, 2 or any value greater than 2.

Since there is no sign between the two sets, the question is asking for the intersection between these two sets. That is, what elements are common to these two sets? As we can see, the two sets don't have any common element. Hence, their intersection is the empty set.

(Note that the union of these two sets would be the set of all real numbers as that includes all elements from either set).

A 24 inch board is cut into 3 pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first and the third is 3 times as long as
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  first piece = 4 in, second piece = 8 in, third piece = 12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

total length = 24 inches

first piece = x in

second piece = 2x

third piece = 3x

Equation

               x + 2x + 3x = 24

               6x = 24

               x = 24/6

               x = 4               length of the first piece

second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches

third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches
