Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 15 = 0

subtract 15 on both sides

⇒ 5x + 15 - 15 = 0 - 15

⇒5x = -15

divide both sides by 5

⇒ $\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{-15}{5}$

⇒x = -3

Which of the choices below is not a possible correlation coefficient?

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The condition for r is the following:

$-1 \leq r \leq 1$

And for this case if we analyze the options the only impossible value is given by:

1.0528

Because this value is higher than 1 and not satisfy the general limits for r

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is a measure of dispersion and is a value between -1 and 1, and is defined as:

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

The condition for r is the following:

$-1 \leq r \leq 1$

And for this case if we analyze the options the only impossible value is given by:

1.0528

Because this value is higher than 1 and not satisfy the general limits for r

ad-work [718]

Answer:

A) linear

B) y = x is linear; y = 1/x is non-linear

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The points lie on the same straight line, so the function is linear.

B) Any function that has x to a power other than 1 will be non-linear.

linear function: y = x

nonlinear function: y = x^-1 = 1/x
