Two students conduct a study to investigate the relationship between forearm length and height. Maria measures the subjects in c

entimeters. In a scatterplot of the data she sees a linear relationship between the variables, so she calculates the correlation coefficient. She determines that r = 0.86. John measures the same subjects in inches. He also calculates the correlation coefficient. What do you expect the correlation will be for John’s measurements?

Answer:

r = 0.86

Explanation:

Correlation coefficients are the strength of the relationship between two variables.

Correlations can indicate anywhere between

  • 1 - for a strong positive relationship.
  • -1 - for a strong negative relationship.
  • 0 - for no relationship at all.

Looking at sample correlation coefficient formula which says

r_{xy} = S_{xy} ÷ (S_{x} × S_{y})

where S_{x} and S_{y} are the sample deviations and S_{xy} is the sample covariance, all of which will remain the same for Maria and John.

Hence, John's correlation will be approximately 0.86 since he would have approximately the same measurement as Maria's measurement when Maria's measurement is converted from centimeters to inches.

A toaster uses 6700 joules of energy in 45 seconds to toast to a piece of bread what is power of the oven
just olya [345]
P= w/t and W= Work 
In this case, W= 6,700j, and T= 45 seconds
Power is the ratio of work  per unit time. When you perform a work in a given span of time, the ratio of work performed with respect to time is Called Power. 
si unit for Power is Watt (W) 
so, P= 6,700/45
P= 148 
Final answer is P=148
