A common misconception in statistics is confusing correlation with causation. If two events are correlated, it merely means that they share the same behaviour over time, but it doesn't imply in any way that those event are related by a common cause, or even worse, that one implies the other.
You can find several (even humorous) counter examples online. For example, if you plot the number of reported pirates assault against the global temperature in the last years, you'll se that temperature is rising (unfortunately...) while pirates are almost disappearing.
One could observe this strong negative correlation and claim that hotter climate has solved the pirate issue. Of course this is a joke, but it explains why you shouldn't confuse correlation with causation.
<span>5.823 x 103 i hope it right ???</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Multiply the 2 with the X to get 2X.
Step 2: multiply the 2 with the 4 and get 8
Step 3: your answer is 2X+8
Answer:
-1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>See steps below:</u>
- -8x + 3 - 8x - 3 = 8x+ 27 - 8x - 3 ⇒ add -8x - 3 to both sides in order to collect like terms in the different sides of equation
- -16x = 24 ⇒ simplified
- x= 24/-16 ⇒ divide
- x= - 1.5 ⇒ answer
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
All u do is multiply 60 by 40% or .40 which equals 24...
24 is 40% of 60
hope this helps...
have a good day
