Since we are asked to find the rate of change from Monday to Wednesday, we are dividing by 2, since Monday is day 1 and Wednesday is day 3. 3 - 1 = 2.
1800 + 500 = 2300 calories consumed Tuesday.
2300 - 100 = 2200 calories Wednesday.
(2200 - 1800)/2 = 400/2 = 200 calories
Are you sure this question is right? there are no negatives? i’m pretty sure the answer is 72 but if i’m wrong, i’m sorry.
Answer: partial correlation.
Explanation:
partial correlation measures the degree of association between two random variables, with the effect of a set of controlling random variables removed. If we are interested in finding to what extent there is a numerical relationship between two variables of interest, using their correlation coefficient will give misleading results if there is another, confounding, variable that is numerically related to both variables of interest. This misleading information can be avoided by controlling for the confounding variable, which is done by computing the partial correlation coefficient.
