A national consumer magazine reported the following correlations.

Mathematics
1 answer:
OverLord2011 [107]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Correct option: (b).

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is a statistical degree that computes the strength of the linear relationship between the relative movements of the two variables (i.e. dependent and independent). It ranges from -1 to +1.

Negative correlation is a relationship amid two variables in which one variable rises as the other falls, and vice versa. A positive correlation occurs when one variable declines as the other variable declines, or one variable escalates while the other escalates.

In statistics, a perfect positive correlation is represented by +1 and -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation.

The closer the correlation value is to 1 the stronger the relationship between the two variables.

Let,

<em>X</em> = car weight

<em>Y</em> = car reliability

<em>Z</em> = annual maintenance cost

It is provided that:

Corr. (X, Y) = -0.30

Corr. (X, Z) = 0.20

The correlation coefficient of car weight and car reliability is negative. This implies that there is a negative relation between the two variables, i.e. as the weight of the car increases the reliability decreases and vice-versa.

And the correlation coefficient of car weight and annual maintenance cost is positive. That is, the two variables move in the same direction, i.e. as the weight of the car increases the annual maintenance cost also increases.

The correlation coefficient value of (X, Y) is closer to 1 than that of (X, Z).

This implies that the relationship between car weight and car reliability is much more stronger that the relationship between car weight and annual maintenance cost.

Thus, all the provided statement are correct.

Hence, the correct option is (b).

Gus and Ike carried a total of 84 books to the library. If Gus carried 5 as many books as Ike, how many books did they each carr
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

They each carried 25 books each.

Step-by-step explanation:

You get this by doing

84/5=16.8

then you do

84/2/5= 8.4

8.4+16.8=25.2

but round to whatever 5 or higher bump up below 5 keep the same

so your answer results in 25.

Michelle kicks a soccer ball up into the air from the ground. The graph represents the height of the ball, in feet, as a functio
marusya05 [52]

Answer: domain: 0 ≤ x ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is an independent variable with a minimum and a maximum value. Or the starting point (value) to the end point (value)

The time taken by the ball is from 0 to 8 seconds

The domain of the function represented by the graph will be from the starting time of the ball to the end time. Therefore, In this case, domain will be

0 ≤ x ≤ 8

How do you describe the principal square root of the 34? *
malfutka [58]

Answer:

B. The square root of 34 is an irrational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 34 is a rational number if 34 is a perfect square.

Since 34 is not a perfect square, it is an irrational number.

Consider the line -6x-2y=-4.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Parallel Slope: -3 Perpendicular Slope: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for y to get the simplified equation for the line.

Once you solve, the equation should be y=-3x+2

Seeing this, we know that the slope of this line is -3. A line parallel will have the same slope as the original equation, and a line perpendicular will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal.

Hope that helps!
