Answer:

C.

f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{l}\dfrac{1}{2}x-3,\ \ x

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the piecewise function consists of two linear functions which graphs meets at point with x-coordinate x = 2.

1. The left linear function is determined for all x < 2 and is passing through the points (0,-3) and (-2,-4). So, its slope is

\dfrac{-4-(-3)}{-2-0}=\dfrac{-1}{-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}

and its equation is

y-(-3)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-0)\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{2}x-3

2. The right linear function is determined for all x ≥ 2 and is passing through the points (2,-2) and (3,1). So, its slope is

\dfrac{1-(-2)}{3-2}=\dfrac{3}{1}=3

and its equation is

y-1=3(x-3)\\ \\y=3x-8

3. Hence, the expression for the piece-wise function is

f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{l}\dfrac{1}{2}x-3,\ \ x

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 ans passes through the point (-3, -1)
kupik [55]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = - \frac{2}{3}, hence

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 2 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 2 = - 3

y = - \frac{2}{3} x - 3 ← is the equation of the line

A correlation coefficient (r) is an appropriate measure of the strength of relationship between two numerical variables even whe
masya89 [10]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation

  • Correlation is a technique that help us to find or define a relationship between two variables.
  • It is a measure of linear relationship between two quantities.

Thus, we can say that the given statement is false.

Correlation coefficient does not measure non linear relationship between two variables.
