Answer and explanation:

A negative correlation means a relationship between two variables whereby each variable affects the other such that an increase in one variable means a decrease in the other and vice versa. This is the situation with the correlation graph/scatter plot of Dr. Hotchkins: An increase in stress would cause a decrease in emotional well being and vice versa

An Outlier is a data point on the scatter plot that does not fall into the pattern of the correlation graph. From the above, 4 points are outliers: extremely high points on stress and emotional well being. These points would affect (increase or decrease) the correlation coefficient depending on where they fall in the pattern. In this case there are 4 outliers out of 60 data points and we know that the more outliers there are the more effect they have on the correlation coefficient and vice versa(also depending on where the outlier is on the scatter plot)

olga_2 [115]

Answer: Badwater is 282 feet below the sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Death Valley headquarters in California is 190 feet below sea level. Badwater, America's lowest point, is 92 feet lower than Death Valley headquarters.

To find the depth of Badwater we need to add depth of Death Valley headquarters from sea level to the depth of Badwater from Death valley headquarters.

i.e. The Depth of Badwater from sea-level = 190 feet +92 feet

= 282 feet

Hence, Badwater is 282 feet below the sea level.

Kay [80]

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = 7 \\ 2x + 4y = 8 \\ x = 7 - 3y \\ 2(7 - 3y) + 4y = 8 \\ 14 - 6y + 4y = 8 \\ 14 - 2y = 8 \\  - 2y =  - 6 \\ y = 3 \\ x = 7 - 3(3) \\ x = 7 - 9 \\ x =  - 2
