A study was done that looked at how much red meat people consumed and how long they lived. The correlation r was found to be 0.9

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the correlation r was found to be 0.98 (a value closer to 1).

Let X =how much red meat people consumed

let Y = how long they lived.

where the x-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates X from Xₙ, their mean value and the y-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates Y from Yₙ, their mean value.

That is, x=(X−Xₙ) and y=(Y−Yₙ).

The results of this determination give values of r lying between +1 and −1, where;

+1 indicates perfect direct correlation,

−1 indicates perfect inverse correlation and

0 indicates that no correlation exists.

Between these values, the smaller the value of r, the less is the amount of correlation which exists.

Generally, values of r in the ranges 0.7 to 1 and −0.7 to −1 show that a fair amount of correlation exists.

therefore, it can be seen that there is a perfect relationship between the quantity eaten and how long the person live

But, the correlation does not consider those that does not consume meat, and it is very hard to determined the answer to the question.

the answer is false because there are other reasons that determined longevity of life apart from meat consumption.

Help on number 12 please?

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

f(n)= 5 · 4

$f(n) = 5 \times 4 ^{n - 1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the explicit formula for geometric sequence. The five is the firat term and is placed correctly. The 4 is the rate of change, because if you multiply 5 by 4 you get 20 and so on.

Let M be the set of all nxn matrices. Define a relation on won M by A B there exists an invertible matrix P such that A = P BP S

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Recall that a relation is an <em>equivalence relation</em> if and only if is symmetric, reflexive and transitive. In order to simplify the notation we will use A↔B when A is in relation with B.

<em>Reflexive: </em>We need to prove that A↔A. Let us write J for the identity matrix and recall that J is invertible. Notice that $A=J^{-1}AJ$ . Thus, A↔A.

<em>Symmetric</em>: We need to prove that A↔B implies B↔A. As A↔B there exists an invertible matrix P such that $A=P^{-1}BP$ . In this equality we can perform a right multiplication by $P^{-1}$ and obtain $AP^{-1} =P^{-1}B$ . Then, in the obtained equality we perform a left multiplication by P and get $PAP^{-1} =B$ . If we write $Q=P^{-1}$ and $Q^{-1} = P$ we have $B = Q^{-1}AQ$ . Thus, B↔A.

<em>Transitive</em>: We need to prove that A↔B and B↔C implies A↔C. From the fact A↔B we have $A=P^{-1}BP$ and from B↔C we have $B=Q^{-1}CQ$ . Now, if we substitute the last equality into the first one we get

$A=P^{-1}Q^{-1}CQP = (P^{-1}Q^{-1})C(QP)$ .

Recall that if P and Q are invertible, then QP is invertible and $(QP)^{-1}=P^{-1}Q^{-1}$ . So, if we denote R=QP we obtained that

$A=R^{-1}CR$ . Hence, A↔C.

Therefore, the relation is an <em>equivalence relation</em>.
