Answer:

Average waste per day per person =1.51 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2010 do United States has a population of 309 million people. Also in the year 2010, do United States recycled 170,000 million pounds of waste.

We have to find the the average waste per person per day.

In a year there are 365 days.

In a day, the average amount of waste produced =\frac{total waste}{365}

                                                             = \frac{170,000}{365}

                                                             = 465.75 million pounds of waste

To find the average amount of waste produced per person per day, divide the average amount of waste produced per day by the total number of people in the country.

Average waste per day per person = \frac{465.75}{309}

                                                            = 1.51 pounds

Suppose the correlation between height and weight for adults is +0.40. What proportion (or percent) of the variability in weight
Schach [20]

Answer:

We are given the correlation between height and weight for adults is 0.40.

We need to find the proportion of the variability in weight that can be explained by the relationship with height.

We know that coefficient of determination or R-square measures the proportion or percent of variability in dependent variable that can be explained by the relationship with independent  variable. There the coefficient of determination is given below:

R^{2}=r^{2}=0.40^{2}=0.16

Therefore, the 0.16 or 16% of the variability in weight can be explained by the relationship with height
