The domain is
<span>the distance traveled since leaving bay town; x>0</span>.
The set of input values is distance traveled and it will make the 175 miles decreaxse.
Their common denominator is 15. Hope it helps! :) If you could vote my answer as the brainliest, that would be awesome! :)
Its a quadratic. Since x cant be a negative number i used the x=4 answer to plug into the length and width
Answer
Let f(x) = ax + b
Then
f(x + 1) = a(x + 1) + b
= ax + a + b
Hence, a = 3, and a + b = 5, b = 2
f(-2) = 3(-2) + 2
= -6 + 2
= - 4
f(2x) = 3(2x ) + 2
= 6x + 2
A common misconception in statistics is confusing correlation with causation. If two events are correlated, it merely means that they share the same behaviour over time, but it doesn't imply in any way that those event are related by a common cause, or even worse, that one implies the other.
You can find several (even humorous) counter examples online. For example, if you plot the number of reported pirates assault against the global temperature in the last years, you'll se that temperature is rising (unfortunately...) while pirates are almost disappearing.
One could observe this strong negative correlation and claim that hotter climate has solved the pirate issue. Of course this is a joke, but it explains why you shouldn't confuse correlation with causation.
