A data set includes weights of garbage discarded in one week from 62 different households. The paired weights of paper and glass

were used to obtain the results shown to the right. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between weights of discarded paper and​ glass? Use a significance level of alpha equals 0.05. correlation​ matrix: Variables Paper Glass Paper 1 0.1853 Glass 0.1853

Answer:

Because the absolute value of the test statistic is <u>less than</u> the positive critical value, there <u>is not</u> enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the weights of discarded paper and glass for a significance level of α = 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation​ matrix provided is:

Variables    Paper     Glass

  Paper           1         0.1853

 Glass        0.1853         1

Te hypothesis for the test is:

<em>H</em>₀: <em>ρ</em> = 0 vs. <em>H</em>₀: <em>ρ</em> ≠ 0

The test statistic is:

<em>r</em> = 0.1853 ≈ 0.185

As the alternate hypothesis does not specifies the direction of the test, the test is two tailed.

The critical value for the two-tailed test is:

r_{\alpha/2, (n-2)}=r_{0.05/2, (62-2)}=r_{0.05/2, 60}=0.250

The conclusion is:

Because the absolute value of the test statistic is <u>less than</u> the positive critical value, there <u>is not</u> enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the weights of discarded paper and glass for a significance level of α = 0.05.

Answer:

x = 11.4 m

y = 21 m

man's shadow =  9.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

measure of third angle must be 50 degrees (180 - (40 + 90))

you can take tan50° = 15/y and 'y' will equal approx. 21

to find 'x' you can take tan21° = (21-x) /25 and 21 - x = 25 · tan21°

21 - x = 9.6

-x = -11.4

x = 11.4

man's shadow is the difference of 21 and 11.4, which is 9.6
