-2
We know that a positive and a negative will end in a negative result. (+) (-) = (-)
Yes, lettuce can be measured in many ways and grams is one of them.
<u>Answer-</u>
<em>A. strong negative correlation.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
<u>Direction of a relationship</u>
- Positive- If one variable increases, the other tends to also increase. If one decreases, the other tends to also. It is represented by positive numbers(i.e 0 to 1).
-
Negative- If one variable increases, the other tends to decrease, and vice-versa. It is represented by negative numbers(i.e 0 to -1)
<u>Strength of a relationship</u>
- Perfect Relationship- When two variables are linearly related, the correlation coefficient is either 1 or -1. They are said to be perfectly linearly related, either positively or negatively.
- No relationship- When two variables have no relationship at all, their correlation is 0.
As in this case, correlation coefficient was found to be -0.91, which is negative and close to -1, so it is a strong negative correlation.
Step-by-step explanation:
if there is nothing missing, we have
x + 25/-8 = -6
in order to compare or add or subtract fractions, we need to bring them all to the same denominator (bottom part).
remember, integer numbers are fractions too. like here
-6 = -6/1
25/-8 = -25/8
so, how can we bring -6/1 to .../8 ?
by multiplying 1 by 8.
but we cannot multiply only the denominator by 8. otherwise we would suddenly have
-6/8
and is -6/8 = -6/1 ? no, certainly not.
to keep the original value of the fraction we have to do the same multiplication also with the numerator (top part).
so, we actually do
-6/1 × 8/8 = -48/8
with this little trick we have now .../8 to operate with, and our transformed fraction has still the same value
-6/1 = -48/8 indeed.
so, we have
x + -25/8 = -48/8
x - 25/8 = -48/8
x = -48/8 + 25/8 = -23/8
Instead of adding 6 three times, you can multiply 6 by 3 and get 18, the same answer.
Similarly,
6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 6 × 7 = 42
