Answer:

Negative correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

In a negative correlation, as one variable increases, the other variable decreases, and as one variable decreases, the other variable increases. In positive correlation, as one variable increases, so does the other and as one variable decreases, so does the other.

In the given question, as the number of student interruptions during class decreases, student scores on in-class quizzes increase. So, this an example of a negative correlation.

If f(1)=3 and f(n)=-2f(n-1)+ 1, then f(5)=
AlladinOne [14]
Our function is f(n)=-2f(n-1)+1.
We want to find f(5).
Let's substitute 5 for n.
f(5) = -2f(5-1) + 1
f(5) = -2f(4) + 1
We need to know f(4).
f(4) = -2f(4-1) + 1
f(4) = -2f(3) + 1
We need to know f(3).
f(3) = -2f(3-1) + 1
f(3) = -2f(2) + 1
We need to know f(2).
f(2) = -2f(2-1) + 1
f(2) = -2f(1) + 1
We know that f(1) = 3
f(2) = -2(3) + 1
f(2) = -6 + 1
f(2) = -5
Now we can use f(2) = -5 to find f(3)...
f(3) = -2(-5) + 1
f(3) = 10 + 1
f(3) = 11
Now we can use f(3) = 11 to find f(4)...
f(4) = -2(11) + 1
f(4) = -22 + 1
f(4) = -21
Now we can use f(4) = -21 t find f(5)!
f(5) = -2(-21) + 1
f(5) = 42 + 1
f(5) = 43

Raj gets a 1.5 mile head start and runs at a rate of 4.5 miles per hour. Jacinda's progress is represented by a graph that goes
Alexxandr [17]
From the given ordered pair representing Jacinda's progress, her speed is equal to 10 miles per hour. Letting x be the time it takes for Jacinda to catch up with Raj, the total distance Raj would travel is 
                            1.5 + 4.5x
and Jacinda's total distance is 10x. Mathematically,
                                1.5 + 4.5x = 10x 
The value of x from the equation is 0.27 hours. Therefore, Jacinda needs to run 2.7 miles to catch up with Raj.
