Answer:
c. there is a positive correlation in-between x and y
Step-by-step explanation:
A regression line is a line that suggests that all the points in a scatter diagram lie on or near one particular line. In a simple regression analysis in which y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable. If the slope is positive, the bivariate data is also said to have a positive correlation. The positive correlation in-between two variables x and y implies that in general, an increase in x goes hand in hand with an increase in y.
Let 2k represent the original even number (such that k is an integer)
then 2(k + 1) is the next consecutive even number.
4(2k) - 16 = 2(k + 1)
8k - 16 = 2k + 2
6k = 18
k = 3
since 2k represents the original number, then 2(3) = 6 is the oroginal number
Answer: 6
45 feet.
Absolute value is the distance of a number from 0. Say 0 is the surface of the ocean, then the diver is 45 feet away from it. Either from above or below, they are the same distance away.
