Answer: The answer is (C) As the number of visitors to a park increases, the number of flowers in bloom at the park increases.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given four options out of which we are to select which relationship is likely ONLY a correlation and NOT one of causation.

Causation is defined as the determination of the cause or reason for some sort of phenomenon while a correlation is simply a recognised relationship between two things or events, but it does not imply causation.In cases of correlation, one thing or event predicts another.

So, in the options (A), (B) and (D), we can see both correlation and causation simultaneously, but in option (C), we can only see correlation, NOT causation.

Thus, the correct option is (C).

What is the approximate value of x in the diagram below
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

x = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in solving this problem is to determine which trig function applies.  The diagram shows that this triangle is a right triangle, that side x is opposite the 25-degree angle, and that the hypotenuse has a length of 18 cm.  

The sine function of an angle Ф is defined as the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.  In this case, sin Ф (or sin 25 degrees) equals x/(18 cm).

We need to determine the value of x.  Adapt the above equation to this particular situation:  sin 25 degrees = x/(18 cm).

To solve for x, multiply both sides of the most recent equation, above, by (18 cm).  The following results:  (18 cm)(sin 25 degrees) = x.

Next, use a calculator to find the value of sin 25 degrees:  It is 0.4226.

Then the desired value of x is (18 cm)(0.4226), or x = 7.61 cm.  This should be rounded off to x = 8 cm to reflect the level of accuracy of the given 18 cm.

0.27 ÷ 0.03 = explain each and every step in this process
GREYUIT [131]
0.27 divided by 0.03 = 9


think of it this way it's like doing it 27 divided by 3 which is = 9


but then u see
9x3=27
9x0.3=2.7

so that must mean
9x0.03=0.27
u basically move the decimal point, in this problem its moved 2 or 3 times.
