If the correlation between height and weight of a large group of people is 0.75​, find the coefficient of determination​ (as a​

percent) and explain what it means. assume that height is the predictor and weight is the​ response, and assume that the association between height and weight is linear.

Independent variable is the predictor variable which is the height and dependent variable is the response variable which is weight in this scenario.

The square of correlation coefficient gives the coefficient of determination. It is denoted by R² (R squared).

We are given:
R = 0.75

So,
R²  = 0.75²

R² = 0.5625

R²  = 56.25 %
The coefficient of determination tells how much of the trend of dependent data can be explained by the independent data using the linear regression model. So in the given case, Height can explain 56.25% of the trend in the weight.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  the correlation between height and weight of a large group of people is 0.75

Coefficient of determination = R^2 =0.75^2 =0.5625=56.25%

Coefficient of determination gives us the strength of association between two variables and how much the variability of the response variable i.e. weight is due to the variability of the predictor variable i.e. height

When there is a linear association correlation coefficient square gives us the reason for the variability and percentage due to the variability in predictor variable

If the distance covered by an object in time t is given by s(t)=t^2+5t , where s(t) is in meters and t is in seconds, what is th
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

E. 44 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that models the distance covered by the object is

s(t)=t^2+5t

where s(t) is in meters and t is in seconds.

The distance covered by the object after 1 second is

s(1)=1^2+5(1)=6m

The distance covered by the object after 1 second is

s(1)=5^2+5(5)=50m

The distance covered between 1 second and 5 seconds is

50-6=44m

Is floor(x) periodic?
diamong [38]

If you look at the graph of y = floor(x), you'll see a stairstep pattern that climbs up as you read from left to right. There are no vertical components to the graph. There are only horizontal components.

The graph is not periodic because the y values do not repeat themselves after a certain x value is passed. For instance, start at x = 0 and go to x = 3. You'll see the y values dont repeat themselves as if a sine function would. If you wanted the function to be periodic, the steps would have to go downhill at some point; however, this does not happen.

Conclusion: The function floor(x) is <u>not</u> periodic.
