Answer with explanation:

It is given that in a study, it has been found that ,there is a positive correlation between the number of supermarkets in a city and the number of pet shelters in the city.

The Meaning of positive Correlation is that,

If Number of Supermarkets =x

And, Number of pet Shelters = y

that , is with increase in x, value of y increases or with decrease in value of x, value of y ,decreases.

means,with increase in number of Supermarkets, number of pet shelters in the city increases.

It means, that demand of pet shelters is increasing,with increase in number of Supermarket,as more animals on the city roads are increasing.Most of the people are afraid from them due to the reason that , they are ignorant about these animals and have never tried to read about them, because of the busy city life.And if they keep a shelter near market place, people who are interested in keeping pets ,or know their use, can buy from that shelter place.

Option B: The correlation is most likely a causation.

2=5 ;

3=9 ; 3*5 - 3*2

4=48 ; 4*9 + 4*3

5=220 ; 5*48 - 5*4

6=1,350 6*220 + 6*5

7= 9408 7*1350 - 7*6

THEN 8 = 8*9408 + 8*7 = 75320

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3) This problem is called the Collatz Conjecture and is an unproven statement in ma

Aneli [31]

The set of numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

<h3>How to generate the numbers in the Collatz Conjecture</h3>

To start with, we make use of the following starting point:

Starting point = 1

The rule is given as:

If the last number is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1.
If the last number is even, divide the number by 2.

1 is an odd number.

So, we use the first rule

So, we have:

1 * 3 + 1 = 4

4 is an even number.

So, we use the second rule

So, we have:

4/2 = 2

So, the first three numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are:

1, 4, 2

Using the given rules, we have:

1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

The above means that there is only one set of repeating numbers in the Collatz Conjecture.

Hence, the set of numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

<h3>Fibonacci sequence</h3>

The first and the second numbers are given as:

First = 2

Second = 5

The current term of a Fibonacci sequence is the sum of the previous two terms.

Using the above rule, the first 10 terms are:

2, 5, 7, 12, 19, 31, 50, 81, 131, 212

<h3>The sum of the first 10 terms of the new sequence</h3>

We have:

2, 5, 7, 12, 19, 31, 50, 81, 131, 212

Add the terms

Sum = 2+ 5+ 7+ 12+ 19+31+50+81+131+212

Evaluate

Sum = 550

Hence, the sum of the first 10 terms of the new sequence is 550
