Using a sample of 60 undergraduates, Dr. Hotchkins discovers a negative correlation between stress and emotional well-being. Whi
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer and explanation:

A negative correlation means a relationship between two variables whereby each variable affects the other such that an increase in one variable means a decrease in the other and vice versa. This is the situation with the correlation graph/scatter plot of Dr. Hotchkins: An increase in stress would cause a decrease in emotional well being and vice versa

An Outlier is a data point on the scatter plot that does not fall into the pattern of the correlation graph. From the above, 4 points are outliers: extremely high points on stress and emotional well being. These points would affect (increase or decrease) the correlation coefficient depending on where they fall in the pattern. In this case there are 4 outliers out of 60 data points and we know that the more outliers there are the more effect they have on the correlation coefficient and vice versa(also depending on where the outlier is on the scatter plot)

Sally's summer punch recipe is a combination of lemonade and fruit punch. Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of frui
andre [41]

Answer:

August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Sally's recipe is a combination of lemonade and fruit

- Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∵ Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 6 : 8

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 2

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 3 : 4

- August made a recipe with 35 cups of liquid total

- He made 15 cups of them lemonade

∵ The total number of cups August made is 35

∵ 15 of them are lemonade

∴ The number of fruit cups = 35 - 15 = 20 cups

∵ August mad 15 cups of lemonade for every 20 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 20 : 15

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 5

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio of Sally recipe is 3 : 4

∵ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio 3 : 4 ≠ the ratio 4 : 3

∴ August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio
