Answer:
(20, 16)
Step-by-step explanation:
It form a right triangle
legnth of ladder is hypotonuse
bottom of ladder from wall distance is one leg
distance up wall is other leg
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse and a and b are legs
4^2+b^2=20^2
16+b^2=400
minus 16 both sides
b^2=384
sqrt both sides
b=8√6 ft
aprox
b=19.59ft from ground
Answer:
C) a positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>More people ⇒ Longer time</em> is a positive correlation between those variables. However, <em>longer time</em> is not the desired outcome.
Rather, <em>shorter time</em> is the desired outcome. The correlation between <em>more people</em> and <em>shorter time</em> is negative. In order to compute that correlation numerically, one would have to define a function that would give a numerical value for "shorter time" that would model the goodness of outcome as time gets shorter.
That’s easy. To turn 5/2 into 10/4 you multiply by 2. :D Hope this helps!
