Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the correlation r was found to be 0.98 (a value closer to 1).  

Let X =how much red meat people consumed

let Y = how long they lived.

where the x-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates X from Xₙ, their mean value and the y-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates Y from Yₙ, their mean value.

That is, x=(X−Xₙ) and y=(Y−Yₙ).

The results of this determination give values of r lying between +1 and −1, where;

+1 indicates perfect direct  correlation,

−1 indicates perfect inverse correlation and

0 indicates that no correlation exists.

Between these values, the smaller the value of r, the less is the amount of correlation which exists.

Generally, values of r in the ranges 0.7 to 1 and −0.7 to −1 show that a fair amount of correlation exists.

therefore, it can be seen that there is a perfect relationship between the quantity eaten and how long the person live

But, the correlation does not consider those that does not consume meat, and it is very hard to determined the answer to the question.

the answer is false because there are other reasons that determined longevity of life apart from meat consumption.

A wise man once said, “ 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 268.” What is his age?
Alla [95]

Answer:

58 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation would be 500-4x=268 with x being his age.

subtract both sides by 500 to get -4x=-232

then divide both sides by -4 to get x=58

7. The length of a rectangle is 3 centimeters less than twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 48 cm. What are the d
irga5000 [103]
The answer is b

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2(l + w) so in this case, it is 2(15 + 9) and that is equal to 48. But so at c and d. So u need to multiply the width by 2 (9*2=18) and then you’ll see that 18-3=15. And therefore, the length is -5 and the width is 9
