If you want just 1430/75 in fraction form then:

after you divide it by 5.
If you want the divided number in fraction form then:

both give the same answer so it doesn't matter.
17.97 + 25.49 + 3x = 50.33
17.97 + 25.49 + 3x - 17.97 - 25.49 = 50.33 - 17.97 - 25.49
3x = 6.87
3x/3 = 6.87/3
x = 2.29 per pair of socks
<u>Answer- </u>D. There is a strong negative association between the variables
<u>Solution-</u>
Properties of Correlation Coefficient
1- Its value ranges between -1 and 1.
2- The greater the absolute value of correlation coefficient, the stronger is the linear relationship.
3- The weakest linear relationship is indicated by a correlation coefficient equal to 0.
4- A positive correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get bigger.
5- A negative correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get smaller.
As the given correlation coefficient is -0.98 (-ve), whose absolute value is 0.98 (closer to 1)
So there is a strong negative association between the variables.
