A scientist investigated the relationship between the weight of a toy boat and the time it took for the boat to float 100 ft dow

n a stream which was moving at a constant speed. The wind current above the stream was blowing at a constant speed in the opposite direction of the stream. The scientist recorded the experimental data in a table. Weight (oz) 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 Time (s) 23 22.7 22.3 21.6 21.4 21.1 20.7 (a) Describe the relationship between the weight of the boat and the time it took to float 100 ft down the stream. Is there a positive or negative correlation between the two variables? How do you know? (b) What is the numeric value of the correlation coefficient to the nearest hundredth? Interpret its meaning. (c) Consider the context of the situation. Is the correlation between weight and time likely due to causation? Justify your answer.

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume weight is input and time is output

The function based on the input and output values is close to linear and it is decreasing (graph is attached)

<u>Answers are</u>

  • a) correlation is negative as time decreases with increase in weight.
  • b) Numeric value is obtained -0.99 by using the formula attached as picture.  It is 'very strong negative relationship'
  • c) Yes. Because weigh increase causes time to decrease

Solve –2k + 12 &lt; 30 for k.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

k<-9

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to isolate the variable, or k in this case. So you will subtract 12 on both sides which will leave you with -2k<18. Then you will divide both sides by -2. Which turns into k>-9. But since you divided by a negative, the sign changes, so the answer would be k<-9.

Express tan(23°−21°) in terms of tangents of 23∘and 21∘ You do NOT need to type in the degree symbol. Be sure to PREVIEW your an
Alja [10]

Answer:

  tan(23° -21°) = (tan(23°) -tan(21°))/(1 +tan(23°)tan(21°))

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the tangent of the difference of angles is ...

  tan(a-b) = (tan(a) -tan(b))/(1 +tan(a)tan(b))

Filling in the values a=23° and b=21°, you get the formula shown above.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

346.38022

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Law of Sines, we know that v=50

\frac{34}{sin(36)}=\frac{x}{sin(24)}

Area = ab·sin(C) /2

[34x50xsin(24)]/2

=346.38022

antoniya [11.8K]
Although the statements are not given, allow me to provide supplements to your understanding of polynomial equations. Because the graphs of two polynomial equations (let's name then f(x) and g(x)), then they do not share coordinate planes or points. If they do not share any points by intersection, then the system of equations does not have a solution. Therefore, Kelly's statement is correct.
