Answer:

Probability (A sum of 10)=0.1025

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ c c c c c c c } Spots & 1 & 2& 3 & 4& 5 & 6 \\ \\Prob & 0.10 & 0.15& 0.20 & 0.25& 0.20 & 0.10     \end{tabular}\end{center}

To find the Probability the sum is 10, we can either have

i. a 4 and a 6

ii. a 5 and a 5

Pr (A AND B) = Pr (A) x Pr(B)

Pr (A OR B) = Pr (A) + Pr(B)

Probability (A sum of 10) = Pr(getting a 4 AND a 6) OR Pr(getting a 5 AND a 5)

=(0.25 x 0.25)+(0.20 x 0.20)

=0.0625+0.04

=0.1025

Rewrite the Cartesian equation y=-3 as a polar equation.

Explanation:

Imagine we have a point  

P

with Rectangular (also called Cartesian) coordinates  

(

x

,

y

)

and Polar coordinates  

(

r

,

θ

)

.

The following diagram will help us visualise the situation better:

We can see that a right triangle is formed with sides  

x

,  

y

and  

r

, as well as an angle  

θ

.

We have to find the relation between the Cartesian and Polar coordinates, respectively.

By Pythagora's theorem, we get the result

r

2

=

x

2

+

y

The only properties we can say about  

θ

are its trigonometric functions:

sin

θ

=

y

/

r

⇒

y

=

r

sin

θ

cos

θ

=

x

/

r

⇒

x

=

r

cos

θ

So we have the following relations:

y

Now, we can see that saying

in the Rectangular system is equivalent to say

Pleaseeeeee help me i appreciate it​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Choice A (older trees are generally taller than younger trees)

Step-by-step explanation:

As you increase the x value, the y value tends to increase as well.  Choice B is incorrect because the points are clustered together in a linear fashion, showing correlation. Choice C is incorrect because the fact that they are clustered around a line of best fit shows high correlation. Choice D is incorrect because a negative correlation coefficient would mean the y decreases as x increases.
