Answer:

A spurious correlation wrongly implies a cause and effect between two variables. For example, the number of astronauts dying in spacecraft is directly correlated to seatbelt use in cars: Use your seatbelt and save an astronaut life!

Interesting correlations are easy to find, but many will turn out to be spurious. Three examples are the skirt length theory, the Super Bowl indicator, and a suggested correlation between race and college completion rates.

Answer:

x = 18

A = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles A and B are supplementary angles so they add to 180 degrees

A + B = 180

5x+20 + 9x -92 = 180

Combine like terms

14x -72 = 180

Add 72 to each side

14x-72+72 = 180+72

14x = 252

Divide each side by 14

14x/14 = 252/14

x =18

A = 5x+20

= 5*18 +20

=90 +20

= 110
