There are two choices for each child: overweight (o) or underweight (u). So if the first child is o the next can be o or u. If the first is u the second can be o or u. This gives four possibilities. Here the first child is the letter noted first and the second is the one listed second:
OO
OU
UO
UU

There are 4 outcomes and if each is equally likely then the probability of each is 1/4. Thus the probability of UU is 1/4

The probability of one underweight and one over weight is 1/2 because in two of the outcomes listed above there is one O and one U (namely OU and UO). Since there are 4 outcomes the probability is 2/4 = 1/2

Which of the following is equal to 393,500? 0.3935 × 10 -6 39.35 × 10 -4 3.935 × 10 -5 3.935 × 10 5
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

No answer is equal to 393,500

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try to solve each question.

0.3935 × 10 -6 = -2.065

39.35 × 10 -4 = 389.5

3.935 × 10 -5 = 34.35

3.935 × 10 +5 = 44.35

None of these equal to 393,500

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

A) Horsepower is the independent variable

D)  The scatter plot shows a negative correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent variable goes on the x-axis, it does not depend on another.

In this case, horsepower is the independent variable.

Negative correlation is a relationship between two variables in which one variable increases as the other decreases.

In this case, the scatter plot shows a negative correlation.
