The author believes we are “endangering our health by not using the metric system.” Do you agree or disagree and why?

I agree with the author. By using the metric system we know the exact amount of a medicine we took, whether it's in mg or mL. This way every doctor can prescribe the same amount.
If we were using some other units this may not be the case. For example, british and american inch were different until 1950's.

Example: if you go to a surgery and a doctor needs to cut "1 inch from the left part" it may cause a mistake as this unit is different in different countries. But if he needs to cut "2.5 cm from the left part" he knows exactly where to cut.

Another benefit of using metric system is that it is being used in almost every country in the world.

X to the 3rd power= 64/343
leva [86]

Answer:

x = 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 = 64/ 343 // - 64/ 343

x^3 - ( 64/ 343 ) = 0

x^3 - 64 / 343 = 0

1*x^3 = 64/ 343 // : 1

x^3 = 64/ 343

x^3 = 64/ 343 // ^ 1/3

x = 4/ 7

Which is the best estimate of the correlation coefficient for the variables in the scatter plot?
V125BC [204]

By using a scatter plot we can get the relationship of two variables or correlation.

There will be two types of correlation.

If the data of the plot show a positive slope of the estimated line then it will be a positive correlation.

Now a correlation value lie between 0 to 1 if it is very close to 0 like 0.1 , 0.2 then we can say the correlation is weak psitively correlated. and if it will be close to 1 like 0.8 or 0.9 then the correlation will be strong.

Similarly if slope of the estimated line will be negative then it will be a negative correlation.

From the above scatter plot notice that it has a negative slope and we can draw a fair estimate line on this scatter plot. So, there is strong negative correlation.

Hence the correct choice is -0.8.
