Answer: c) people who wear seat belts sustain less serious injuries in an acciden

Explanation:

The CORRELATION COEFFICIENT is a very useful tool in statistics that checks the relationship between 2 variables.

The COEFFICIENT is a number between -1 and +1. A Coefficient of ZERO means there is no Correlation.

A Coefficient of +1 means that the variables are Perfectly Positively Correlated meaning that when one variable occurs, the other does as well. A Coefficient of -1 is Negatively Perfectly Correlated and is the reverse of the above.

The closer to -1 or +1 the Coefficient is, the STRONGER the correlation be it Negative or Positive.

Professor Rodman got a Correlation of -0.72 meaning that the 2 variables are very Negatively Correlated as the number is close to -1.

This means MORE seatbelts, LESS severity of accidents and vice versa.

Which of the following flow charts accurately illustrates the history of Constitutional amendments in the United States?
PolarNik [594]

The correct answer is Chart B

Explanation:

Amendments are modifications or changes in the constitution of a country. These are necessary to make laws suitable to historical, political, and social circumstances (for example, by eliminating obsolete laws) or to make laws more specific or effective. In the case of the U.S. amendments to the constitution are common but only some of these are approved and ratified to become permanent.

Indeed, it is believed around 10,700 amendments have been proposed since the 18th century. Additionally, from these only thirty-three have been considered and send to ratification, and only twenty-seven amendments have been ratified, which occurs after states vote in favor of the amendment, and this is official. One of the most popular amendments was the 13th amendment that abolished slavery.
