If they have the same charge
x+x+x+x+x+x+x=-42
7x=-42
x=-6
so to check our answer
-6-6-6-6-6-6-6=-42
-12-12-12-6=-42
-24-18=-42
-42=-42
Answer:
provides information about the strength of a relationship
Step-by-step explanation:
A numerical measure of strength in the linear relationship between any two variables is called the Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient.
The co efficient of correlation is a pure number denoted by r , independent of the units in which the variables are measured that can range from+1 to -1 .
The sign of r indicates the direction of the cor relation.
When r= 0 it does not mean that there is no relationship . For example if the observed values lie exactly on a circle , there is a relationship between variables but r = 0 as r only measure linear cor relation.
The 2nd statement given is the correct answer.
It is not related to ordinal or nominal properties and it does show direction.
