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.

Explain how the difference of a fraction or a rational number and its additive inverse is equal to zero.
Jobisdone [24]
This question is in reverse (in two ways): 

<span>1. The definition of an additive inverse of a number is precisely that which, when added to the number, will give a sum of zero. </span>

<span>The real problem, in certain fields, is usually to show that for all numbers in that field, there exists an additive inverse. </span>

<span>Therefore, if you tell me that you have a number, and its additive inverse, and you plan to add them together, then I can tell you in advance that the sum MUST be zero. </span>

<span>2. In your question, you use the word "difference", which does not work (unless the number is zero - 0 is an integer AND a rational number, and its additive inverse is -0 which is the same as 0 - the difference would be 0 - -0 = 0). </span>

<span>For example, given the number 3, and its additive inverse -3, if you add them, you get zero: </span>
<span>3 + (-3) = 0 </span>

<span>However, their "difference" will be 6 (or -6, depending which way you do the difference): </span>

<span>3 - (-3) = 6 </span>
<span>-3 - 3 = -6 </span>

<span>(because -3 is a number in the integers, then it has an additive inverse, also in the integers, of +3). </span>

<span>--- </span>

<span>A rational number is simply a number that can be expressed as the "ratio" of two integers. For example, the number 4/7 is the ratio of "four to seven". </span>

<span>It can be written as an endless decimal expansion </span>
<span>0.571428571428571428....(forever), but that does not change its nature, because it CAN be written as a ratio, it is "rational". </span>

<span>Integers are rational numbers as well (because you can always write 3/1, the ratio of 3 to 1, to express the integer we call "3") </span>

<span>The additive inverse of a rational number, written as a ratio, is found by simply flipping the sign of the numerator (top) </span>

<span>The additive inverse of 4/7 is -4/7 </span>

<span>and if you ADD those two numbers together, you get zero (as per the definition of "additive inverse") </span>

<span>(4/7) + (-4/7) = 0/7 = 0 </span>

<span>If you need to "prove" it, you begin by the existence of additive inverses in the integers. </span>
<span>ALL integers each have an additive inverse. </span>
<span>For example, the additive inverse of 4 is -4 </span>

<span>Next, show that this (in the integers) can be applied to the rationals in this manner: </span>

<span>(4/7) + (-4/7) = ? </span>
<span>common denominator, therefore you can factor out the denominator: </span>

<span>(4 + -4)/7 = ? </span>
<span>Inside the bracket is the sum of an integer with its additive inverse, therefore the sum is zero </span>
<span>(0)/7 = 0/7 = 0 </span>

<span>Since this is true for ALL integers, then it must also be true for ALL rational numbers.</span>
