Answer: -3/12

Step-by-step explanation:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ m represents the slope

(-9,-6) -9= x1 -6=y1 (3,-9) 3=x2 -9=y2

plug them in

$m=\frac{-9--6}{3--9}$

two negatives make a positive

$m=\frac{-9+6}{3+9}$

simplify

$m=\frac{-3}{12}$

this is your slope: -3/12

I hope this is correct and helped you! :)

Ellen saved $2000 and she spent 10% of it to buy a bike. Kim saved 8% more than that of Ellen's left savings. If Lisa saved 60%

enyata [817]

Answer: Lis saved $1166.4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , Ellen saved $2000 and she spent 10% of it to buy a bike.

Then, Ellen's left saving = saved amount - 10% of (saved amount)

= $2000 - 0.10 x $2000 [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

= $2000 - $200

= $1800

So, Ellen's left saving= $1800

Also, Kim saved 8% more than that of Ellen's left savings.

Kim's Saving = Ellen's left saving + 8% of (Ellen's left saving)

= $1800 + (0.08) x ($1800) [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

= $1800 + $144

i.e. Kim's Saving= $1944

If Lisa saved 60% as much as Kim, then Lisa's saving = 60% of (Kim's Saving)

= (0.60) x ($1944) [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

i.e. Lisa's saving = $1166.4

Answer:

C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.

Explanation:

The following multiple choice responses are provided to complete the question:

A) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because it shows a stronger correlation with a smaller p-value (more significant).

B) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because the two variables are normally distributed.

C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.

D) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because the p-value is closer to 0.0556.

Further Explanation:

A count variable is discrete because it consists of non-negative integers. The number of polyps variable is therefore a count variable and will most likely not be normally distributed. Normality of variables is one of the assumptions required to use Pearson correlation, however, Spearman's correlation does not rest upon an assumption of normality. Therefore, the Spearman correlation would be more appropriate to report because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
