An observational study found that the amount of sleep an employee gets each night is associated with job performance. The correl

ation coefficient was found to be r=0.86. A reader of the study concluded that more sleep causes employees to perform better. Why is such a conclusion not correct?
A)The correlation value should equal 1 for such a conclusion.
B)The correlation value should be negative for such a conclusion.
C)The sample was not representative of the population.
D) Causation cannot be determined from an observational study.
E) The correlation value implies that less than 75% of the variability in job performance can be explained by sleep.

The sign of the product of two integers with the same sign is positive. What is the sign of three integers with the same sign? E
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Can be both, because if all three were negative, it would be

negative*negative= positive
positive*negative=negative
example: -1*-1*-1=-1

but if all three were positive, it would obviously be positive, because any number of positives can't make negatives in multiplication.

A man wants to beautify his front yard by planting four 20−foot-tall palm trees alongside his house. Each tree will need a cylin
GREYUIT [131]

He have to buy 4 bags to put all the dirt at once.

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius = 17 inches

Height = 28 inches

Volume of dirt from the cylindrical hole = π(r x r) h

= π(17 x 17) 28

= (3.14) (289) 28

= 25408.88 cubic inches

1 foot = 12 inches

Volume of dirt the bag can hold= 24 x 18 x 48

= 20736 cubic inches of dirt

The man fills only one third of the bag.

The volume of dirt the man fills = (1/3)20736

= 6912 cubic inches

Total bags = 25408.88/6912

= 3.69

= appx. 4 bags

He have to buy 4 bags to put all the dirt at once.
