Marty's grandmother cans spaghetti sauce. Last year she canned some specifically for Marty. She ended up with 25 quarts full. Marty noticed, however, that a quart of sauce is too much for her meals (she only cooks for herself). If she wants her grandmother to can the sauce in pints this year, how many pint jars should she buy to put it in?

The most common scenario would be in cooking like this:

In a recipe you need a pint of fluid (i.e. milk, water) but you don´t have some recipient to measure this exact amount, so how do you measure this?

Well after doing some research turns out 1 pint is exactly 2 cups, a cup is one of the most common objects to have at home and luckily you have 1 . So you measure 2 cups and you have your pint for your recipe!

A diver descends to a location of -50 1 over 4 meters relative to the surface of the water. He then descends another 10 1 over 2

Yanka [14]

Answer:

$-60\frac{3}{4}$ meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find diver's final location relative to the surface of water we will subtract $10\frac{1}{2}$ from $-50\frac{1}{4}$ because diver dives away another $10\frac{1}{2}$ from his previous location of $-50\frac{1}{4}$ .

$-50\frac{1}{4} -10\frac{1}{2}$

Now we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction and then we will find a common denominator.

$\frac{-201}{4} -\frac{21}{2} =\frac{-201-42}{4}$

$=\frac{-243}{4}$

Now let us convert our answer in mixed fraction.

$=\frac{-243}{4}=[tex]-60\frac{3}{4}$ [/tex]

Therefore, diver's final location relative to the surface of the water is $-60\frac{3}{4}$ meters.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Correlation does not imply causation

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation is a statistical technique which shows how strongly a pair of variables are linearly related and change together.

Causation says that the change in one value will cause the other to change, making one variable dependent on the other.

Examples of correlation with causation are:

a) ice cream sales and summer temperatures

b) forest fires and summer temperatures

An example of correlation without causation is ice cream sales and forest fires. While they both increase as temperatures increase, ice cream sales are not CAUSING the forest fires.

From the information available it can be suggested that there is a correlation between sexual intercourse within a month prior to delivery as there is a higher number of fetus deaths to mothers who had sexual intercourse within a month prior to delivery. However, there is no information which shows the sexual intercourse caused the deaths. Additionally, 89% of the mothers of fetuses who died DID NOT have sexual intercourse within a month prior to delivery, thus even the correlation is weak in this case.

PZZZ help!!!!!<br><br>25 points!

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Y=1.25x+3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is linear so it uses y=ax+b form. In this we can set the left group as x and the right group as y. Then use

(y2-y1) / (x2-x1) to find the slope. once the slope is found (1.25) we can find the y intercept by using one of our coordinates with our equation y-ax=b

12.25-1.25*7=b

b=3.5

now we put them all together to make

Y=1.25x+3.50
