Researchers measured the percent body fat and the preferred amount of salt (percent weight/volume) for several children. Here ar

e data for seven children:
Preferred amount of salt x 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.7 0.9 1.1
Percent body fat y 20 30 22 30 38 23 30
Use your calculator or software: The correlation between percent body fat and preferred amount of salt is about which of the following?
a) τ = 0.08.
b) τ = 0.3.
c) τ = 0.8.

Answer: b) τ = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Amount of salt (x)____% body fat(y)

0.2 _______________20

0.3 _______________30

0.4 _______________22

0.5 _______________30

0.7 _______________38

0.9 _______________23

1.1 ________________30

The correlation Coefficient as obtained from the online pearson correlation Coefficient calculator is 0.3281 = 0.3 (to one decimal place) which implies that a weak positive correlation or relationship exists between the preferred amount of salt taken to the percentage body weight of an individual. This is because the value is positive and closer to 0 than 1. The closer the weaker the degree of correlation. With positive values implying a positive relationship (that is an increase in variable A leads to a corresponding increase in B and vice-versa).

What is the inverse of y=pi/2+sin x​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x)=\sin ^{-1}(x-\frac{\pi}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=\frac{\pi}{2}+\sin x

To find the inverse of this function, we interchange x and y.

x=\frac{\pi}{2}+\sin y

we now solve for y.

x-\frac{\pi}{2}=\sin y

Take the sine inverse of both sides to obtain;

\sin ^{-1}(x-\frac{\pi}{2})=y

Hence the inverse of the given function is;

f^{-1}(x)=\sin ^{-1}(x-\frac{\pi}{2})

where \frac{\pi}{2}-1\le x\le \frac{\pi}{2}+1

Norma-Jean [14]

Ok so, it all depends if Shane is likely to jump win over all of the other seventh graders then the eighth graders should earn the 50 points...

But if the roles are reversed the the Seventh graders should earn the 50 points.

There is not a full answer to what I am saying but from speculation you should be able to decide..
