Answer:
a) strong negative linear correlation.
b) Weak or no linear correlation.
c) strong positive linear correlation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation coefficient r measures the strength and direction (positive or negative) of two variables. The correlation coefficient r is always between -1 and 1. When the coefficient r is negative then the direction of the correlation is downhill (negative) and when it's positive then it's an uphill correlation (positive). Similarly, as the coefficient is closer to -1 or 1 the correlation is stronger, with zero being a non linear relationship.
Now back to the question:
a) Near -1: as we said before, this means an strong negative (-1) linear correlation.
b) Near 0: weak or no linear correlation (we cannot say if its positive or negative because we don't know it it's near zero from the right (positive numbers) or the left (negative numbers)
c) Near 1: strong positive (close to +1) linear correlation
Answer:
x = 2 cm
y = 2 cm
A(max) = 4 cm²
Step-by-step explanation: See Annex
The right isosceles triangle has two 45° angles and the right angle.
tan 45° = 1 = x / 4 - y or x = 4 - y y = 4 - x
A(r) = x* y
Area of the rectangle as a function of x
A(x) = x * ( 4 - x ) A(x) = 4*x - x²
Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation:
A´(x) = 4 - 2*x A´(x) = 0 4 - 2*x = 0
2*x = 4
x = 2 cm
And y = 4 - 2 = 2 cm
The rectangle of maximum area result to be a square of side 2 cm
A(max) = 2*2 = 4 cm²
To find out if A(x) has a maximum in the point x = 2
We get the second derivative
A´´(x) = -2 A´´(x) < 0 then A(x) has a maximum at x = 2

Answer:
She will earn £9.01 per hour after the pay rise
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate a value, given the percentage of the pay rise
From the question, the percentage is 6%
The pay rise is thus;
8.50 + 6% of 8.50
= 8.50 + (6*8.5)/100
= 8.50 + 0.51
= £9.01
