Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) R2 does not determine the level of correlation between two variables in statistics but rather it is used to determine the level of variance in a dependent variable that is explained by an independent variable. It is also known as coefficient of determination.

Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) will better explain a direct relationship between a country's literacy rate and life expectancy and the value obtained will better explain option a

(b) The slope of the line can predict an improvement in life expectancy but cannot guarantee this improvement. And as such, the use of the word "will" suggests a form of guarantee which is wrong in interpreting slopes.

Keith = x
Troy = x-3
Joe = 2(x-3)

42 liters of juice were evenly
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer: 42/6=7
