Answer:
Job has the weakest association with the dependent variable income.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation coefficient is used to determine the the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables.
It is denoted by <em>r</em> and the value of <em>r</em> ranges from -1.00 to 1.00.
The correlation data provided is as follows:
Income Education Job Age
Income 1.000
Education 0.677 1.000
Job 0.173 -0.181 1.000
Age 0.369 0.073 0.689 1.000
The dependent variable is the income.
And the variables Education, Job and Age are independent variables.
The correlation between Income and Job is 0.173.
This is the lowest correlation coefficient between the dependent and independent variable.
Thus, Job has the weakest association with the dependent variable income.
In each case, you can use the second equation to create an expression for y that will substitute into the first equation. Then you can write the result in standard form and use any of several means to find the number of solutions.
System A
x² + (-x/2)² = 17
x² = 17/(5/4) = 13.6
x = ±√13.6 . . . . 2 real solutions
System B
-6x +5 = x² -7x +10
x² -x +5 = 0
The discriminant is ...
D = (-1)²-4(1)(5) = -20 . . . . 0 real solutions
System C
y = 8x +17 = -2x² +9
2x² +8x +8 = 0
2(x+2)² = 0
x = -2 . . . . 1 real solution
Answer:
c. 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property.
3(b+4) -2(2b+3) = -4 . . . . given
3b +12 -4b -6 = -4 . . . . . parentheses eliminated
-b +6 = -4 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
-b = -10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6
b = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by -1
_____
The rules of equality require that any operation you perform on one side of the equal sign must also be done on the other side. So when we say "subtract 6", we assume you know that means "subtract 6 from both sides of the equation", for example.
