Answer:

B. Undernutrition

Explanation:

The reason why A. malnutrition is not correct is that malnutrition arises from lacking a few or one specific nutrient in your body.

Undernutrition arises because of inadequate intake of dietary energy regardless of specific nutrients.

While we use malnutrition in day to day use as an umbrella term for inadequate diets that is not the real meaning of that word.

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

He walks at 3 km/hour.

If the container ship is 100 m long, and travelling at 12 km/hour.

The distance will be 200 m.

We need to calculate the relative velocity

Using formula of relative velocity

v_{21}=v_{2}-v_{1}

Put the value into the formula

v_{21}=12-3

v_{21}=9\ km/h

The distance is 200 m.

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{200}{9\times\dfrac{5}{18}}

t=80 sec

Hence, The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.

The weight Lucy lost with respect to number of weeks was recorded for six weeks. The correlation coefficient was calculated to b
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: There is a weak, positive correlation between the weight Lucy lost and the number of weeks.

Explanation:

The correlation coefficient is used to measure the relationship between two variables in terms of how they move in relation to one another.

If two variables are said to have a positive correlation, it means that they increase at the same time and decrease at the same time for example, there is a positive correlation between the amount of food a family buys and how much money they have because the more money they have, the more food they buy.

Negative correlations are the reverse for instance Ice cream sales and cold temperatures. The colder it is, the less people buy ice cream.

The Correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to +1 with +1 (-1) meaning that the variables are perfectly positively(negatively) correlated. The closer the value is to 0, the weaker the correlation.

Generally, for a correlation coefficient between the numbers 0 and +0.3, there is a weak positive correlation.

With a correlation coefficient of 0.0502, there is therefore a weak, positive correlation between the weight Lucy lost and the number of weeks.
