She's wrong she just needs about 170 more points to reach Cruz
Answer:
![r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Cfrac%7Bn%28%5Csum%20xy%29-%28%5Csum%20x%29%28%5Csum%20y%29%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Bn%5Csum%20x%5E2%20-%28%5Csum%20x%29%5E2%5D%5Bn%5Csum%20y%5E2%20-%28%5Csum%20y%29%5E2%5D%7D%7D)
The value of r is always between 
And we have another measure related to the correlation coefficient called the R square and this value measures the % of variance explained between the two variables of interest, and for this case we have:

So then the best conclusion for this case would be:
c. the fraction of variation in weights explained by the least-squares regression line of weight on height is 0.64.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know that the correlation between the height and weight of children aged 6 to 9 is found to be about r = 0.8. And we know that we use the height x of a child to predict the weight y of the child
We need to rememeber that the correlation is a measure of dispersion of the data and is given by 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]}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Cfrac%7Bn%28%5Csum%20xy%29-%28%5Csum%20x%29%28%5Csum%20y%29%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Bn%5Csum%20x%5E2%20-%28%5Csum%20x%29%5E2%5D%5Bn%5Csum%20y%5E2%20-%28%5Csum%20y%29%5E2%5D%7D%7D)

5 1/2 - 3/8
Make 5 1/2 into a improper fraction
5 1/2=11/2. Mutiply the whole number with the denominator. 5*2= 10. Add 10 with the numerator. 10+1= 11
11/2-3/8.
Find the common denominator for 11/2 which is 8. Mutiply by 4
11(4)/2(4)= 44/8
44/8-3/8= 41/8= 5 1/8
Answer: 41/8 or 5 1/8
Because 4x2 = 8, so 4x7=28, then you times 28 by 2 which equals 56 and 8x7=56
