The correlation coefficient for poor hearing and loud music in a group of people is 0.67. Analyze the following statement: Poor

hearing is caused by listening to loud music. Is this a reasonable conclusion?

Answer:

Correlation does not mean <em>causation</em> even after having a relatively high correlation coefficient as a result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation and causation are not the same. Correlation does not mean that variations in one variable <em>cause</em> variations in the second variable. Instead, correlation considers that variations in one variable <em>corresponds</em> with variations of the second variable. No more.

Correlation is an important first step to establish that one variable possibly can cause some effect on the other, but it is not a definitive answer to this question. It is crucial to find other possible factors that can explain what causes some effect.

As a conclusion, a positive and relative high correlation coefficient does not necessarily mean causation. It simply tells us that some study found that people that listen to loud music are also people with poor hearing problems, and possibly a cause to the latter variable is to listen loud music repeatedly, but it is a must to find other possible factors before definitely concluding that.

We grapht hem

we see that the base is from (-2,2) and (6,2), 8 units long
the height will be from y=2 to y=8 or 6 units
so then, the area=1/2 times base times height=1/2 times 8 times 6=24 square units

Whats the difference between a subset and a proper subset? {5,8} {2,5,8} Is {5,8} a subset of {2,5,8}.
valina [46]

Answer:

\{5,8\} is a subset of \{2,5,8\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Difference between subset and proper subset

To answer this question, I will use the following illustration.

A = \{1,2,3\}

B = \{2,3\}

C = \{1,2,3\}

In the above sets, set B is a proper subset of set A because all elements of B can be found in A, but not element of A can be found in B.

Set C is a subset of A because A = C

Using the above illustration, we have:

\{5,8\} and \{2,5,8\}

\{5,8\} is a subset of \{2,5,8\}, because 5 and 8 are in \{2,5,8\} but 2 which ca be found in \{2,5,8\} is not in \{5,8\}

A man on a 135-ft vertical cliff looks down at an angle of 16°13' and sees his friend.
iren2701 [21]
A) Use the trigonometric function and ratio cos(x) = A/H. (Adjacent/Hypotenuse)
1. cos(x) = 135/H
2. H*cos(16°) = 135
3. H = 135/cos(16°)
***Make sure calculator is in degree mode***
4. H = 140.44 ft (rounded to two decimal places)
________

b) Use the function and ratio tan(x) = O/A (Opposite/Adjacent)
1. tan(x) = O/A
2. tan(16°) = O/135
3. 135*tan(16°) = O
4. O = 38.71 ft (two decimal places)

Good luck!
