Answer:

0.9113

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample standard deviation of Stock X = 4.665

Sample standard deviation of Stock Y = 8.427

Sample Covariance = 35.826

The Correlation Coefficient, R is related to sample covariance and standard deviation using the formular :

R = Covariance(X, Y) / (SD(X) * (SD(Y))

R = 35.826 / (4.665 * 8.427)

R = 35.826 / 39.311955

R = 0.9113

Hence, correlation Coefficient, R = 0.9113 which depicts a strong positive relationship.

frozen [14]

Answer:

The solution to a system of equations means the point must work. In both equations in the system, if you are asked if a point is a solution to an equation, you replace the variables with the given values and see if the two sides of the equation is equal "so is a solution"

How did i work this out?
bogdanovich [222]

knowing the answer is between 3 & 4 plug those as x and see what you get for answers than adjust the number accordingly

3^3+2(3) = 33 so its higher than 3

4^3 + 2(4) = 72 so it is lower than 4

try the middle so try 3.5

3.5^3 + 2(3.5) = 49.875

question states use 1 decimal place so now try 3.6

3.6^3+2(3.6) = 53.856


3.5 is closest

Johnathan can jog 3 2/3 miles in 7/8 hour. Determine his average speed in miles per hour.
kap26 [50]
If you would like to know Johnathan's average speed in miles per hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 2/3 = 11/3 miles ... 7/8 hour
x miles = ? ... 1 hour

11/3 * 1 = 7/8 * x
11/3 = 7/8 * x
x = 11/3 * 8/7 
x = 88/21
x = 4 4/21 miles

The correct result would be 4 4/21 miles per hour.
