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.

Sand falls onto a conical pile at the rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. The radius of the pile is always equal to one half it al
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Either one of these.

Step-by-step explanation:

volumepile=1/3 (PI r^2)h

but r=h/2, so

volume=1/12 PI h^3

dv/dt=10 ft^3/min

but dv/dt=1/12 PI 3h^2 dh/dt

solve for dh/dt

This assumes you mean by "altitude" the height. If you mean altitude as slant height, you have to adjust the fromula

_______________________________________________

given: r = h/2

V = (1/3)π r^2 h

= (1/3)π (h/2)^2 (h)

= (1/12) π h^3

dV/dt = (1/4)π h^2 dh/dt

for the given data ...

10 = (1/4)π(25)dh/dt

dh/dt = 10(4)/((25π) = 1.6/π feet/min

Explain why the mean without the outliner could be a better description of the data set than the mean with the outliner.
lions [1.4K]
Sometimes the outlier, if it's too large, can throw off the mean, making it larger and smaller, so it isn't as accurate

sorry if this doesnt make sense if you need me to explain it more I will

The area of a rectangular sheet of metal is 135 square inches. The perimeter is 48 inches. What are the dimensions of the sheet?
mezya [45]

Answer:  The length is 15 inches and breadth is 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Area of rectangular sheet = 135 square inches

Perimeter of rectangular sheet = 48 square inches

Now Area of rectangular sheet = Length\times Breadth =  135 square inches

perimeter of rectangular sheet = 2\times (Length+Breadth) = 48 square inches

Thus (Length+Breadth) = 24 square inches

Thus Length = 15 inches

Breadth = 9 inches
