The number of wins for a high school football team is measured for the season. When the team plays at home, it is generally beli

eved that they will win. Comparing the location of the game and the number of wins, a correlation coefficient of −0.91 is calculated. What would this imply about the football team winning at home?
The scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. The data has a strong, negative correlation, and a causal relationship exists between the team playing at home and winning.
The scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. The data has a strong, negative correlation, but causation cannot be determined.
The scatter plot would not be represented by a line of best fit with a negative slope. There is a weak correlation between the football team playing at home and winning.
There is no causation and almost no correlation between the football team playing at home and winning.

Hi there :)

Question :

........

☆ The scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. The data has a strong, negative correlation, and a causal relationship exists between the team playing at home and winning.

☆ The scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. The data has a strong, negative correlation, but causation cannot be determined.

☆ The scatter plot would not be represented by a line of best fit with a negative slope. There is a weak correlation between the football team playing at home and winning.

☆ There is no causation and almost no correlation between the football team playing at home and winning.

Direct Answer- <em><u>Option A</u></em>

<em>Answer Explanation -</em>

<u>r = -0.91</u>

Negative, so opposite directions, which can be explained as for example, the more the team travels(plays away games), the less games it wins.

| r | = 0.91, which is quite close to 1, so a significant relationship. Also, Negative relation means that the scatter plot would be represented by a straight line with a negative slope, and so,<em><u> correct answer is Option A</u></em>

<em>Method explanation :-</em>

Correlation coefficients measure the relationship between variables, the closer | r | is to 1, the stronger the relationship will be.

If the coefficient is positive, then there will be a positive relationship. If the coefficient is negative, then there is a negative relationship.

R = sec(θ) − 2cos(θ), where -π/2 &lt; θ &lt; π/2
Alex

Answer:

  y = (x/(1-x))√(1-x²)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be translated to rectangular coordinates by using the relationships between polar and rectangular coordinates:

  x = r·cos(θ)

  y = r·sin(θ)

  x² +y² = r²

__

  r = sec(θ) -2cos(θ)

  r·cos(θ) = 1 -2cos(θ)² . . . . . . . . multiply by cos(θ)

  r²·r·cos(θ) = r² -2r²·cos(θ)² . . . multiply by r²

  (x² +y²)x = x² +y² -2x² . . . . . . . substitute rectangular relations

  x²(x +1) = y²(1 -x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract xy²-x², factor

  y² = x²(1 +x)/(1 -x) = x²(1 -x²)/(1 -x)² . . . . multiply by (1-x)/(1-x)

  \boxed{y=\dfrac{x\sqrt{1-x^2}}{1-x}}

__

The attached graph shows the equivalence of the polar and rectangular forms.
