Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have is a general equation that says this in words:
Laura's hours + Doug's hours = 250 total hours
Since we don't know either person's number of hours, AND since we can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, we need to write Laura's hours in terms of Doug's, or Doug's hours in terms of Laura's. We are told that Doug spent Laura's hours plus another 40 in the lab, so let's call Laura's hours "x". That makes Doug's hours "x + 40". Now we can write our general equation in terms of x:
x + x + 40 = 250 and
2x = 210 so
x = 105
Since Laura is x, she worked 105 hours in the lab and Doug worked 40 hours beyond what Laura worked. Doug worked 145. As long as those 2 numbers add up to 250, we did the job correctly. 105 + 145 = 250? I believe it does!!

Answer:
Im in 7th grade and I need some help on a math problem. can I post it?
The correlation coefficient is a number that indicates the direction
and closeness of points of a line of best of fit.
So it tells us two things.
It tells us the direction of the line of best fit
and it tells us the closeness of the points.
Usually, anything between -0.9 and -0.6 has a moderate negative correlation. If you look at this on a graph, you will notice that the points definitely resemble a line so we say it's moderate.
It will be a negative correlation because the slope is negative.
