Answer:

Options a, b, c are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's see the equation that governs the statement, which is the following:

r = \frac{cov (x, y)}{\sqrt{var(x) var (y)} }

Therefore, reading options a, b, c are correct.

Since from the formula we have the correlation coefficient of two variables x and y and here it shows us the correlation between x, y and y, x is the same.

 This means that the 0.4 correlation implies a moderate but positive relationship between the two variables.

 that is, the highest or lowest value of one variable implies a highest or lowest value of the other variable, respectively.

A convertible is traveling at 45 miles per hour, and its wheels have a diameter of 48 inches. How many complete revolutions do t
neonofarm [45]
To answer this question you will need to know how many inches the car travels Per minute.

1. To find this out you will first divide 45 miles by 60 to get the number of miles per minute.

The convertible travels 0.75 mi./min.

2. Next you will convert this number of miles to inches.

There are 63,360 inches per mile.

0.75 x 63360 = 47520 inches per minute.

3. You then need to find the distance the wheel travels in one rotation. You will need to find the circumference of the wheel.

C = pi x d
3.14 x 48
C = 150.72 inches
Each rotation is about 150.72 inches.

4. Finally, divide the total distance traveled in a minute by the circumference(distance of one rotation) to get the total number of rotations in a minute.

47520/150.72 is about 315.3 rotations per minute.
