It means that the correlation of the variables is increasing.

Scatter plots show how much one variable is affected by another. The relationship between two variables is called their correlation.

Un triángulo rectángulo tiene un área de 84 pies2 y una hipotenusa de 25 pies de largo. ¿Cuáles son las longitudes de sus otros

Answer:

7 feet and 24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle, the hypotenuse is 25 feet long. The area of this triangle is 84 square feet.

Let x feet and y feet be the lengths of triangle's legs.

By the Pythagorean theorem,

$x^2+y^2=25^2\\ \\x^2+y^2=625$

The area of the right triangle is half the product of its legs, thus

$84=\dfrac{1}{2}xy\\ \\xy=168$

Solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^2+y^2=625\\ \\xy=168\end{array}\right.$

From the second equation:

$x=\dfrac{168}{y}$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$\left(\dfrac{168}{y}\right)^2+y^2=625\\ \\168^2+y^4=625y^2\\ \\y^4-625y^2+168^2=0\\ \\D=(-625)^2-4\cdot 168^2=(625-2\cdot 168)(625+2\cdot 168)=289\cdot 961=17^2\cdot 31\\ \\\sqrt{D}=17\cdot 31=527\\ \\y^2_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-625)\pm 527}{2}=49,\ 576\\ \\y_1=7,\ y_2=-7,\ y_3=24,\ y_4=-24$
