Answer:

From the given, we establish this relationship:

RS + ST = RT

RS = ST since S is the midpoint of RT

Thus, let's use RS = ST to find x,

By substituting the given expressions:

RS = ST

8x + 11 = 14x - 1

12 = 6x

x = 12/6

thus,

x = 2

Find the coefficient of correlation between and X and Y if covariance between X and Y is 15 and the variance of X and Y are resp

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

$Correlation \ coefficient \ (r) = \dfrac{covaraince \ between \ X \ and \ Y }{SD_X \times SD_Y }$

$Correlation \ coefficient \ (r) = \dfrac{15 }{10^{1/2} \times 25^{1/2} }$

$Correlation \ coefficient \ (r) = \dfrac{15 }{3.162 \times 5 }$

$Correlation \ coefficient \ (r) = \dfrac{15 }{15.81 }$

$Correlation \ coefficient \ (r) \simeq 0.95$

Ramkin is going to flip a fair coin 100 times.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

50 times

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to flip a coin 100 times. There are 2 sides. So, what you would do is divide 100 by two because there are two sides. There is a 50% chance that the coin will land on heads, and a 50% chance it will land on tails.

Please let me know if you have any more questions. Hope this helps!

Anettt [7]

Take 1/2 of -6 and square it
-6/2=-3
(-3)^2=9
9 should be added
x^2-6+9=5+9
(x-3)^2=14

9 should be added
