Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
A correlation coefficient is a mathematical measure of certain kind of correlation, in sense a statistical relationship amid two variables
Negative correlation is a relationship amid two variables in which one variable rises as the other falls, and vice versa.
Values amid 0.7 and 1.0 (-0.7 and -1.0) implies a strong positive (negative) linear relationship amid the variables.
It is provided that Warren noticed a strong negative linear relationship between the success rate and putt distances.
This implies that as the putt distances are increasing the success rates are decreasing and as the putt distances are decreasing the success rates are increasing.

2005 AMC 8 Problems/Problem 20
Problem
Alice and Bob play a game involving a circle whose circumference is divided by 12 equally-spaced points. The points are numbered clockwise, from 1 to 12. Both start on point 12. Alice moves clockwise and Bob, counterclockwise. In a turn of the game, Alice moves 5 points clockwise and Bob moves 9 points counterclockwise. The game ends when they stop on the same point. How many turns will this take?
$\textbf{(A)}\ 6\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 8\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 12\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 14\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 24$
Solution
Alice moves $5k$ steps and Bob moves $9k$ steps, where $k$ is the turn they are on. Alice and Bob coincide when the number of steps they move collectively, $14k$, is a multiple of $12$. Since this number must be a multiple of $12$, as stated in the previous sentence, $14$ has a factor $2$, $k$ must have a factor of $6$. The smallest number of turns that is a multiple of $6$ is $\boxed{\textbf{(A)}\ 6}$.

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
In the second quadrant, ...
c = 180° -arcsin(24/25) ≈ 106.26°
In the third quadrant, ...
d = 360° -arccos(-3/4) ≈ 221.41°
Then cos(c+d) = cos(327.67°) ≈ 0.84498
This is a positive irrational number, greater than 21/100, so the only reasonable choice is the last one:
_____
Perhaps you want to work this out using the trig identities.
cos(c) = -√(1 -sin(c)²) = -7/25
sin(d) = -√(1 -cos(d)²) = -(√7)/4
Then the desired cosine is ...
cos(c+d) = cos(c)cos(d) -sin(c)sin(d)
cos(c+d) = (-7/25)(-3/4) -(24/25)(-√7/4)
cos(c+d) = (21 +24√7)/100 . . . . matches choice D
