This is the concept of trigonometry, the distance from the foot of the ladder will be given by:
tan theta=[opposite]/[adjacent]
opposite=17 ft
adjacent=x ft
theta=37°
thus
tan 37=17/x
x=17/tan 37
x=22.56 ft
=22.6 ft (to the nearest 10th of a foot)

Explain what each of the following sample correlation coefficients tells you about the relationship between the x and y values i
Alchen [17]

Answer: The description are as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation coefficients is a statistical measure that measures the relationship between the two variables.

(a) r = 1, it means that there is a Perfect positive relationship between the two variables. If there is positive increase in one variable then other variable also increases with a fixed proportion.

(b) r = -1, it means that there is a perfect negative relationship between the two variables. If there is positive increase in one variable then other variable decreases with a fixed proportion.

(c) r = 0, this is a situation which shows that there is no relationship between the two variables.

(d) r = 0.86, this is a situation  which shows that there is a fairly strong positive relationship between the two variables.

(e) r = 0.06, it is nearly zero which represents that either there is a very minor positive relationship between the two variables or there is no relationship between them.

(f) r = -0.89,  this is a situation  which shows that there is a fairly strong negative relationship between the two variables.
