So let's start out by labeling Ethan as X
Since 85 is 1/3 of what Ethan drove, that means Ethan drove 3 times of 85.
85= (3x) -21
85 -21 = 3x
60=3x
20 = x
There is a positive, linear relationship between the correct and guessed calories. The guessed calories for 5 oz. of spaghetti with tomato sauce and the cream-filled snack cake are unusually high and do not appear to fit the overall pattern displayed for the other foods. The correlation is r = 0.825 . This agrees with the positive association observed in the plot; it is not closer to 1 because of the unusual guessed calories for spaghetti and cake. The fact that the guesses are all higher than the true calorie count does not influence the correlation. The correlation r would not change if every guess were 100 calories higher. The correlation r does not change if a constant is added to all values of a variable because the standardized values would be unchanged. The correlation without these two foods is r = 0.984 . The correlation is closer to 1 because the relationship is much stronger without these two foods.
Answer:
(7/8 - 4/5)^2 = 9/
1600
= 0.005625
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract: 7/
8
- 4/
5
= 7 · 5/
8 · 5
- 4 · 8/
5 · 8
= 35/
40
- 32/
40
= 35 - 32/
40
= 3/
40
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(8, 5) = 40. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 8 × 5 = 40. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - seven eighths minus four-fifths = three fortieths.
Exponentiation: the result of step No. 1 ^ 2 = 3/
40
^ 2 = 32/
402
= 9/
1600
In words - three-fortieths squared = nine one-thousand six-hundredths.
