Part A
Correlation coefficient: -.99
This tells us that as time goes on (value of x increases) the area of the puddle goes down (value of y decreases)
Part B
y₂ - y₁
------- = slope
x₂ - x₁
9 - 15
--------
5 - 8
-6/-3 = 2
So the slope equals -2, regardless of the fact that we got 2 as an answer there, we know that it is a negative slope
Part C
The data represents causation because an increase in the value of x results in a decrease in the value of y, this shows an example of direct causation between x and y.
Answer:
-13=5+x, rearrange the terms.
-x=5+13, add.
-x=18, invert the sign.
x=-18
Answer:
B, C, D
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 is 8 spaces away from 6 so do the math for each possible answer and u get B,C,D.
B.
6 - (-2)
6 + 2 = 8
C.
| -2| = 2
6+2 = 8
D.
|-2+6|
2+6 = 8
Since a=2 it will be 5x2 which equal 10, plus 6
