Answer:

In the graph attached there is a sample generated with a correlation coefficient r=-0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

A value of r that is -0.5 shows that there is a certain correlation and that this correlation is negative.

As there are no examples in this question, I searched for a generator of random samples with a user-input correlation coefficient between the two variables.

In the graph attached there is a sample generated with a correlation coefficient r=-0.5.

What are the slope and why intercept shown on the graph below

viktelen [127]

Hello!

Let's start by finding the slope of the line. You can calculate the slope by dividing the change in y-values by the change in x-values using the following formula:

$\frac{ y_{1}- y_{2} }{ x_{1} - x_{2} }$

The plotted coordinates are (0, 5) and (4, -5); let's plug those into the formula:

$\frac{5(-5)}{0-4}$

Simplify:

$\frac{5+5}{-4}$

$\frac{10}{-4}$

$\frac{-5}{2}$

The slope is $\frac{-5}{2}$ .

Now, the y-intercept is where the line intersects the y-axis, or when x equals 0. x equals 0 when y equals 5, so the y-intercept is 5.

I hope this helps!

There are a total of 64 students in a drama club and a yearbook club. The drama club has 10 more students than the yearbook club

g100num [7]

Given:
64 total students
x = drama club students
y = yearbook club students

x = y + 10
y = 64 - x

y = 64 - x
y = 64 - (y + 10)
y = 64 - y - 10
y + y = 64 - 10
2y = 54
2y/2 = 54/2
y = 27

x = y + 10
x = 27 + 10
x = 37

To check:

x + y = 64
37 + 27 = 64
64 = 64

Does the equation y = x represent a function? Explain why or why not.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

It represents a function because it consists of x-intercept and y-intercept hence can be plotted.
