Answer:

r=0.933

Step-by-step explanation:

X = the water content of snow on April 1

Y = the yield from April to July (in inches) on the Snake River watershed in Wyoming for 1919 to 1935.

x: 23.1 32.8 31.8 32.0 30.4 24.0 39.5 24.2 52.5 37.9 30.5 25.1 12.4 35.1 31.5 21.1 27.6

y: 10.5 16.7 18.2 17.0 16.3 10.5 23.1 12.4 24.9 22.8 14.1 12.9 8.8 17.4 14.9 10.5 16.1

We can construct the following table

n  \sum x     \sum y     \sum x^2       \sum y^2        \sum xy

______________________________________________

1    23.1    10.5   533.61     110.25     242.55

2   32.8   16.7    1075.84   278.89   547.76

3   31.8    18.2    1011.24     331.24    578.76

4   32.0   17.0    1024         289        544

5   30.4   16.3    924.16      265.69   495.52

6   24.0   10.5    600.25     110.25     252

7   39.5    23.1    1560.25    533.61    912.45

8   24.2    12.4    585.64      153.76    300.48

9   52.5    24.9   2756.25    620.01   1307.25

10  37.9    22.8   1436.41      519.84    864.12

11   30.5    14.1     930.25      198.81     430.05

12   25.1    12.9    630.01       166.41     323.79

13   12.4     8.8     153.76       77.44      109.12

14   35.1     17.4    1232.01      302.76   610.74

15   31.5     14.9    992.25      222.01    469.35

16   21.1      10.5    445.21       110.25     221.55

17    27.6    16.1     761.76       259.21    444.36

____________________________________________

On this case n=17, \sum x = 511.5   \sum y=267.1   \sum x^2 =16628.65  \sum y^2 =4549.43   \sum xy =8653.45

And we can use the following formula to calculate the correlation coefficient:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2-(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2-(\sum y)^2]}}

And replacing we have:

r=\frac{17(8653.45)-(511.5)(267.1)}{\sqrt{[17(16628.65)-(511.5)^2][17(4549.43)-(267.1)^2]}}=0.933

evablogger [386]

Answer:

V2 = 8571.43L

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the V2, We can use V2 = P1V1 / P2

= 1.0 atm × 12,000 L / 1.4 atm    

 = 12,000 L / 1.4 atm

= 8571.43 L
