Answer:

We are given the correlation between height and weight for adults is 0.40.

We need to find the proportion of the variability in weight that can be explained by the relationship with height.

We know that coefficient of determination or R-square measures the proportion or percent of variability in dependent variable that can be explained by the relationship with independent  variable. There the coefficient of determination is given below:

R^{2}=r^{2}=0.40^{2}=0.16

Therefore, the 0.16 or 16% of the variability in weight can be explained by the relationship with height

A trapezoid has an area of 13.5 square inches. If the bases are 3 and 6 inches what is the height?
liraira [26]
Well the formula is : b1+b2/2 (h)

so the height would be solved as : 
13.5 = 3+6/2 (h)
13.5 = 9/2 (h)
h = (13.5)/(9/2)
h = (13.5) x (2/9)  *reciprocal*
h = (27) / (9)
h = 3

How do you find the missing angle of a right triangle?
abruzzese [7]
When it comes to finding a missing angle of a right triangle all you have to do is subtract the sum of the other two angles that you already know. For example, when you have a right triangle and the measures of two angles are 90 and 65 all you have to do is this...
90+65= 155
and...
180-155= 25 which is the sum of the missing angle.
