Theoretically 10 because the 50/50 chance realistically though you'll get more or less

The probability of heads on any toss is just as likely as the probability of tails because each coin toss is an independent event. In other words two events related in such a way that knowing about the occurrence of one event has no effect on the probability of the other event, in others words independent.

It does not matter if you have flipped a coin 5 times and it was heads, it is not "due" to come up tails. This is an incorrect assumption just like it is incorrect to believe you are "on a roll" because 5 times it was heads.

A local running group collected data on the number of miles its group members run each week, x, and their average mile time, y.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The correlation coefficient of the data is -0.13, which means as the weekly mileage increases, it has no effect on the average mile time.Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient of a data set describes how closely related two variables are. Correlation coefficients close to positive 1 show a strong positive correlation, while correlation coefficients close to negative 1 show a strong negative correlation. When a correlation coefficient is close to 0, it shows no correlation between the data.

For the given data set, calculate the correlation coefficient using technology.

This r-value is closer to 0 then it is to -1. Thus, the correlation coefficient of the data is -0.13, which means as the weekly mileage increases, it has no effect on the average mile time.
