Which of the following describes a positive correlation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
insens350 [35]3 years ago

Answer:

First Choice: As the number of hours spent on homework increases, the tests scores increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of a positive correlation  is a relationship between two given variables, in which both variables are moving in the same direction. This can mean when one variable increases and the other variable increases, too, or one variable decreases and the other decreases as well.

The first choice is a positive correlation because both variables are changing (increasing) in the same direction. As you spend more time on homework, you're likely to get a higher test score.

The second choice cannot be a positive correlation because only one variable is having some kind of change (increasing). The doctor visits amount remains the same, so we can call this a zero-correlation relationship because the number of apples eaten yearly doesn't affect the amount of doctor visits. An apple a day keeps the doctor a way is just a proverb, not to be taken literally.

The third choice cannot be a positive correlation because the two variables are going different directions. Even though the number of times going to bed early is increasing, the number of times waking up late decreases, which is not moving in the same direction as the other variable.

The fourth choice cannot be a positive correlation because, similarly to the third choice, the two variables are going different directions. One variable is increasing, which is the amount of practice time. Meanwhile, the other variable is decreasing (going in the opposite direction), which is the number of games lost in a season.

Answer:

∠EFG = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

As FH bisects ∠EFG , ∠EFH = ∠HFG .

We know that ∠EFH = (-5x + 89)° . So ∠HFG = ∠EFH = (-5x + 89)°

Also, ∠HFG  + ∠EFH = ∠EFG

=> 2(-5x + 89)° = (61 - x)°

=> -10x + 178 = 61 - x

=> 10x - x = 178 - 61

=> 9x = 117

=> x = 117 / 9 = 13

Putting the value of 'x' in ∠EFG gives :-

(61 - x)° = (61 - 13)° = 48°

Find the value of x when the area of a triangle is 22 in2 and has a base of 3x-1 and height of x.
Virty [35]
The formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)bh = A
when we plug in the numbers, we get (1/2)(3x-1)x = A
using the distributive property we get (1.5x - .5)x = A
Then its 1.5x^2 - .5x = A
then if we factor out 0.5x we get 0.5x(3x-1) = A
then with the zero product property, 0.5x can equal 0 and x would need to equal 0.
if 3x-1 = 0 , then 3x = 1 then x = 1/3. so our answer would be 1/3 I'm pretty sure because a length cannot be 0

Three out of evry 45 tickets sold in a food bank raffle will win a prize.If Eli bought 15 tickets, how many prizes would he expe
evablogger [386]

i would say you need to divide 45 and 3. then subtract 45 and 15. then with those two numbers you need to put the amount from 45 / 3 on the top and the 15-45 on the bottom. you will get the probability.

After 4 new students joined a class, the class had 32 students. Which equation can be used to find n, the number in the class be
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

n+4=32

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial number n gets additional 4 students making the new total number of students to be 32. Therefore, this situation can be represented as

n+4=32

To get the actual number of students before the additio, we make n the subject of formula hence

n=32-4

n=28

Therefore, the initial number was 28 and the equation is n+4=32

Since no choices were provided, the equation that can be modified is n+4=32

How many odd integers are there between 101 and 999 have distinct digits?
guapka [62]
Every number will have only 3 digits. In the ones place, there are 5 choices. For every choice of digit made in the ones place, there are 8 possible choices for the hundreds place (you can choose from 1-9, omitting whatever is used in the ones place), and there are 8 possible choices for the tens place (you can choose from 0-9, omitting whatever has already been used elsewhere).

So there are 7\cdot8\cdot8=320 such numbers.
