Answer:

The answer to your question is 30 u²

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices

R(-4, 2)

S (1, 2)

T (-5, -4)

Find the area using matrices X Y

R -4 2

S 1 2

T -5 -4

R -4 2

=| (-4 x 2) + (1 x -4) + (-5 x 2) - [(-4 x -4) + (-5 x 2) + (1 x 2)]|

= |-8 - 4 - 10 - [ 16 - 10 + 2]|

= |-22 - [ 8]|

= |-22 - 8|

= |-30|

Area = 30 u²

Solve the expresssion x − 5 = 17

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

We must isolate the x by itself.

We need to add 5 to both sides of the equation so it cancel out from the side with x.

So x = 22

Find the slope of the line. m =

IRISSAK [1]

Answer: m=4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ . We can use the two points to find the slope. The points on the graph are (-2,1) and (-3,-3).

$m=\frac{-3-1}{-3-(-2)} =\frac{-4}{-1} =4$

Describe the difference between plots that show a strong correlation and plots that show a weak correlation.

GalinKa [24]

The data points are a little closer for a weak correlation, and you can see that there is some sort of relationship between these factors.

Data points for a strong correlation are in close proximity to one another, making it possible to build a line by imitating their pattern.

A statistic called correlation gauges how much two variables change in connection to one another.

Correlation and diversification, the idea that certain types of risk can be reduced by investing in assets that are not connected, are closely related concepts.

Correlation cannot determine whether x causes y or vice versa, or whether a third component is responsible for the association.

A scatter plot may make it easier to spot correlation, particularly when the variables have a non-linear but nevertheless significant association.
