Answer:

Part A: YES, it is.

Part B: the amount of pumpkin picked and the amount of fertilizer applied.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The closer the correlation coefficient is to 1, the stronger the relationship between two variables, and vice versa. Also, the closer the data points are on a scatter plot, the closer the correlation coefficient is to 1.

The scatter plot shown indicates a positive correlation between number of days and number of pumpkins. However, the data points are to some extent farther apart from each other. This shows a moderate relationship between the two variables. Therefore, a correlation coefficient, r, of 0.51 that was calculated can be concluded to be accurate , because an r of 0.51 depicts a moderate relationship between two variables.

Part B:

A variable that could affect the number of pumpkins picked could be amount of fertilizer applied, instead of the day in October. Thus, we can compare the amount of pumpkin picked and the amount of fertilizer applied.

Find the value of n so that the line perpendicular to the line with the equation -2y + 4 = 6x + 8 passes through the points at (
kolezko [41]
If the line must be perpendicular to the equation, that means the slope is the reciprocal of the one in the given equation. So first we find that, the slope of the given equation. 

- 2y + 4 = 6x + 8
- 2y = 6x + 4
 
y = - 3x - 2

So the slope of the given equation is - 3x. That means the slope of our perpendicular equation must be 1/3x 

Now to find the value of n, plug in our given information and perpendicular slope into the slope equation:

Slope = (Y₂ - Y₁ ) / (X₂ - X₁)

1/3 = (- 8 - (-4)) / (2 - n)
1/3 = (- 8 + 4) / (2 - n)
1/3 = ( - 4) / (2 - n)

Multiply both sides by (2 - n) to get the binomial out of the denominator

(1/3)(2 - n) = - 4

Multiply both sides by 3 to isolate the binomial

2 - n = - 4(3)
2 - n = - 12

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate the variable

- n = - 14

Divide by - 1 to get rid of the negative.

n = 14. Your coordinate is ( 14, - 4)

Now to find the equation that is perpendicular. 

y = 1/3x + b

Plug in either of the coordinates. I'm going to use the ordered pair we just found. 

- 4 = 1/3(14) + b
- 4 = 14/3 + b
- 12/3 = 14/3 + b

Subtract 14/3 on both sides.

- 26/3 = b

Your equation is y = 1/3x - 26/3
