Idk if this wil help but...



Let speed of Matthew be X yards/min  Speed of Lowe = 3X yards/min.


Distance covered by Matthew in 30 minutes = 30X


Distance covered by Lowe in 30 minutes = 30(3X)= 90X


90X = 30X + 1200       X = 20 yards/min

Let speed of Matthew be X yards/min  Speed of Lowe = 3X yards/min.


Distance covered by Matthew in 30 minutes = 30X


Distance covered by Lowe in 30 minutes = 30(3X)= 90X


90X = 30X + 1200       X = 20 yards/min

If the correlation between height and weight of a large group of people is 0.75​, find the coefficient of determination​ (as a​
Shtirlitz [24]
Independent variable is the predictor variable which is the height and dependent variable is the response variable which is weight in this scenario.

The square of correlation coefficient gives the coefficient of determination. It is denoted by R² (R squared).

We are given:
R = 0.75

So,
R²  = 0.75²

R² = 0.5625

R²  = 56.25 %
The coefficient of determination tells how much of the trend of dependent data can be explained by the independent data using the linear regression model. So in the given case, Height can explain 56.25% of the trend in the weight.

Solve for x. 3/4 = x/12 <br> I need work shown to
marta [7]

\frac{3}{4} = \frac{x}{12}

To solve for x you have to bring the 12 to the other side

How  do we do this?

Well if you think about it this is technically what the equation shows

\frac{3}{4} = x * \frac{1}{12}

This means to isolate x you can multiply both sides by 12 and that will cancel \frac{1}{12} from the right side

\frac{3}{4} * 12 = x * \frac{1}{12} * 12

\frac{36}{4} = x * 1\\\frac{36}{4}  = x

\frac{36}{4} can be further simplified to...

9

^^^This is the answer

Check:

3/4 = 9/12

3/4 = 3/4

Hope this helped!
