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)

David brought a variety pack of delicious donuts for his daughters Amy & Anna. Amy ate 2/3 of the pack and Anna devoured 1/4
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of donuts in the pack be x.

Amy = 2/3x

Anna = 1/4x

David = 1

x - 2/3x - 1/4x = 1

Find common denominators for 2/3 and 1/4

The common denominator is 12

2/3 * 4/4 = 8/12

1/4 * 3/3 = 3/12

x - 8/12x - 3/12x = 1

x - 11/12x = 1

1/12x = 1

x = 12

You can always check

Amy = 8

Anna = 3

So David must equal to 1

Hope this helps :)

Have an awesome day!
