Let x be the number of girls at the beach. The ratio of boys to girls at the beach cleanup was 7 : 8. If there were 42 boys and x girls, you can write a proportion:

\dfrac{42}{x}=\dfrac{7}{8}.

Use the main property of proportion:

42\cdot 8=7\cdot x,\\ \\x=\dfrac{42\cdot 8}{7},\\ \\x=6\cdot 8=48.

Answer: 48 girls

ddd [48]

Answer:

Absenteeism significantly increases cost.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The Sensor Dynamics Corporation did a scientific study on the impact of absenteeism on increased costs.

The correlation between the two was found to be 0.7

Correlation:

  • It is a measure of linear relationship between two quantities.
  • A positive correlation means that an increase in one quantity leads to an increase in another quantity
  • A negative correlation means with increase in one quantity the other quantity decreases.
  • Values between 0 and 0.3 tells about a weak positive linear relationship, values between 0.3 and 0.7 shows a moderate positive correlation and a correlation of 0.7 and 1.0 states a strong positive linear relationship.

Thus, we can say that there is a high positive correlation between absenteeism and cost.

Thus, absenteeism significantly increases cost.
