A study was done to investigate the relationship between bodybuilders' weights and daily protein intake. The correlating linear
model is shown below, where x represents the bodybuilder's weight [in pounds], and y represents their daily protein intake [in grams]. Interpret the slope. y = 1.5x
It introduces the relationship between two variables and is called correlation. Proportionality or variation is state of relationship or correlation between two variables It has two types: direct variation or proportion which states both variables are positively correlation. It is when both the variables increase or decrease together. On the contrary, indirect variation or proportion indicates negative relationship or correlation. Elaborately, the opposite of what happens to direct variation. One increases with the other variables, you got it, decreases. This correlations are important to consider because you can determine and identify how two variables relates with one another. Notice x = y (direct), y=1/x (indirect)
Based on the calculations that 300 is 40%, 375 is considered 50% or halfway.. in this case, we must multiply 375 by 2 and we will discover how many students were surveyed:
