Which phrase is the best description of the association between variables X and Y?

1 answer:

3 0

The variables have a negative association/correlation, because when one value increases (ex: x) the other decreases (see y)
If you would put a line through the dataset most of the points would be quite a bit off the line so the association is only moderate and not strong

so the answer is it is a "moderate negative association"

For some integer n, the first, the third and the fifth terms of an arithmetic sequence are respectively 3n, 5n – 6, and 11n + 8.

Answer:

a₄=8n+1= -39.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if a₁=3n; a₃=5n-6 and a₅=11n+8, then it is possible to calculate the difference according to 0.5(a₅-a₃)=0.5(a₃-a₁). Then

2) 0.5(11n+8-5n+6)=0.5(5n-6-3n); ⇔ 6n+14=2n-6; ⇔ n= -5.

3) if n=-5, then the 4th term is:

$a_4=\frac{a_5+a_3}{2}; \ = > \ a_4=\frac{11n+8+5n-6}{2}=8n+1;$
