Answer:

As a fraction, the answer is exactly 86/969

In decimal form, the answer is approximately 0.08875

=====================================================

Work Shown:

The assumption is that no replacements are made for each selection.

5 red, 6 blue, 8 green

5+6+8 = 19 total

A = P(3 red) = (5/19)*(4/18)*(3/17) = 10/969

B = P(3 blue) = (6/19)*(5/18)*(4/17) = 20/969

C = P(3 green) = (8/19)*(7/18)*(6/17) = 56/969

D = P(3 all same color)

D = A+B+C

D = 10/969 + 20/969 + 56/969

D = (10+20+56)/969

D = 86/969

D = 0.08875

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation is a term which simply measures the strength of the linear relationship that exist between two variables that are quantitative.

In the scenario in the question, since the correlation coefficient between the variables is +0.64, it means that there is a positive correlation between the two variables which means there's a positive relationship between the repeated visits to the coffee shop and the customer's age but they're weakly positively correlated .

Can someone please help me on this question and show the work if you can?
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

it is a 60 30 90 triangle so basically 2y is = x

21² + y² = x²

441 + y² = x²

y = x/2 (2y = x)

441 + x²/4 = x²

4x² = 1764 + x²

3x² = 1764

x = exact is 24.248711306 simplied square root would just be 14√3

2y = 14√3

y = 7√3

exact wouldd be 12.124355653
