Answer:

Let's assume the following data:

Price in Dollars (X) 26 29 32 38 47

Number of Bids (Y) 12 13 15 16 18

For our case we have this:

n=10 \sum x = 172, \sum y = 74, \sum xy = 2623, \sum x^2 =6194, \sum y^2 =1118  

r=\frac{5(2623)-(172)(74)}{\sqrt{[5(6194) -(172)^2][5(1118) -(74)^2]}}=0.974  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.974

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

Solution to the problem

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

Let's assume the following data

Price in Dollars (X) 26 29 32 38 47

Number of Bids (Y) 12 13 15 16 18

For our case we have this:

n=10 \sum x = 172, \sum y = 74, \sum xy = 2623, \sum x^2 =6194, \sum y^2 =1118  

r=\frac{5(2623)-(172)(74)}{\sqrt{[5(6194) -(172)^2][5(1118) -(74)^2]}}=0.974  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.974

Lera25 [3.4K]
X=13 and z=112
you know that (13x-57) + (6x-10) = 180 since they are supplementary, so you will solve that. it will give you x=13. now that you know x, you can solve for z by plugging in 13 for x on 13(x)-57 since that and angle z are congruent. when you simplify, you will get z=112.
you can check your answer by doing (6x-10) +112=180. this is because they are supplementary. you should get x=13, and that is how you know you are right.

9x+9y=9. Solve for Y
Alja [10]

Answer:

y = 1 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 9y = 9 ( divide through by 9 )

x + y = 1 ( subtract x from both sides )

y = 1 - x
