Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No we cannot say that eating strawberries causes freckles. The question says that the study showed a strong positive correlation. The answer is no because a positive correlation does not mean that there is a causation. When two things are said to correlate, it does not mean that one causes the other, correlation between two things could be as a result of another third variable that affects the both of them. <u>The lurking variable here is going to be sunlight. </u>this is because sunlight exposure affects both variables by causing increases  in the growth of strawberries and freckles.

Help! The options are: proportional , not proportional
storchak [24]

Answer:  Not proportional

=======================================================

Explanation:

Let's assume the two fractions are equal.

If so, then,

\frac{0.2}{2.6} = \frac{0.3}{3.6}\\\\0.2*3.6 = 2.6*0.3\\\\0.72 = 0.78

The last equation is false, so the first equation is false.

Therefore, the two ratios are <u>not</u> proportional.

-------------

Another approach:

Calculate the decimal value of each fraction

\frac{0.2}{2.6} \approx 0.07692\\\\\frac{0.3}{3.6} \approx 0.08333\\\\

The two ratios result in different decimal values, so the two ratios are not equal, aka not proportional.

The East-Side soccer team has a cylindrical water cooler that is half full. The diameter of the cooler is 12 in. and the height
Hoochie [10]
Volume of a cylinder is given by πr^2h
Volume of the cylindrical water cooler is π x (12/2)^2 x 15 = 3.14 x 36 x 15 = 1,695.6 in^3
Volume of water in the cylindrical cooler is 1,695.6 / 2 = 847.8 in^2

Number of drinking cups that can be filled from the cooler is 847.8/20.14 = 42 cups.
