What is the best estimate of the correlation coefficient for the variables in the scatter plot

Mathematics

RUDIKE [14]2 years ago

Answer: -0.99

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture, it can be seen that there is a strong negative correlation between the variables.

i.e. the value of correlation coefficient must be negative.

The value of strong correlation coefficient r, lies between the absolute value of 0.75 to 1.

From all the given options -0.99 has the nearest value to the absolute value of 1.

Therefore, the  best estimate of the correlation coefficient for the variables in the scatter plot = -0.99

I believe this would be -.99. Correlation typically goes from -1 to 1 with 0 being no correlation whatsoever. Since this has such a strong negative slope, it would need to be as close to -1 as possible.

A sphere with center A is shown. Which represents a tangent?<br> | WE
lana [24]

Answer:

<h2>The segment FE is a tangent of the sphere.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Obseve the sphere in the image attached.

Notice that point A is the center of the sphere. GD is the diameter, which means AG and AD are radius.

On the other hand, remember that a tangent is a line that intersects the figure at only one point, otherwise, it would be a secant.

Therefore, segment BC is a secant and segment FE is tangent.

So, the right answer is segment FE.

You are to take a multiple-choice exam consisting of 64 questions with 5 possible responses to each question. Suppose that you h
damaskus [11]

Answer:

a) Expected score on the exam is 12.8.

b) Variance 10.24, Standard deviation 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either you guesses the answer correctly, or you does not. The probability of guessing the answer of a question correctly is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The variance of the binomial distribution is:

V(X) = np(1-p)

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

64 questions.

So n = 64

5 possible answers, one correctly, chosen at random:

So p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2

(a) What is your expected score on the exam?

E(X) = np = 64*0.2 = 12.8

(b) Compute the variance and standard deviation of x. Variance =Standard deviation

V(X) = np(1-p) = 64*0.2*0.8 = 10.24

Variance 10.24

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{64*0.2*0.8} = 3.2

Standard deviation 3.2

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 54 mL

Step-by-step explanation: First, you need to find how many milliliters 10% is. To do this, divide 180 by 10, which equals 18. Then, since it needs to be thirty percent, times 18 by 3, which equals 54 mL. Hope this helps.
