In your own words, describe the difference between correlation and causation. Give an example (not given in the content) of two variables that might be positively or negatively correlated.

Answer:

The two numbers are 23 and 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the two numbers are A and B.

We are told:

1)  A+B=79

2) 3A+5B=283

Let's take the first expression and solve for A:

A+B=79

A=79-B

Now use this value of A in the second expression:

3A+5B=283

3(79-B)+5B=283

237-3B+5B=283

2B = 46

B = 23

Since B=23, we know from 1) that

A+B=79

A+23=79

A = 56

CHECK:

Does A+B=79?  

        56+23 = 79?  YES

Does 3A+5B=283?

3(56)+5(23)=283

168  + 115 = 283?  YES

By assuming the standard deviation of population 2.2 the confidence interval is 8.67 toys,8.94 toys.

Given sample size of 1492 children,99% confidence interval , sample mean of 8.8, population standard deviation=2.2.

This type of problems can be solved through z test and in z test we have to first find the z score and then p value from normal distribution table.

First we have to find the value of α which can be calculated as  under:

α=(1-0.99)/2=0.005

p=1-0.005=0.995

corresponding z value will be 2.575 for p=0.995 .

Margin of error=z*x/d

where x is mean and d is standard deviation.

M=2.575*2.2/[tex]\sqrt{1492}[/tex]

=0.14

So the lower value will be x-M

=8.8-0.14

=8.66

=8.67 ( after rounding)

The upper value will be x+M

=8.8+0.14

=8.94

Hence the confidence interval will be 8.67 toys and 8.94 toys.

The value of the trigonometric relation tan 30° = 1/√3

Trigonometry is the study of the relationships between the angles and the lengths of the sides of triangles

The six trigonometric functions are sin , cos , tan , cosec , sec and cot

Let the angle be θ , such that

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

cosec θ = 1/sin θ

sec θ = 1/cos θ

cot θ = 1/tan θ

Given data ,

Let the trigonometric relation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A = tan 30°

And , tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

On simplifying , we get

sin 30° = 1/2

cos 30° = √3/2

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

tan 30° = sin 30° / cos 30°

tan 30° = ( 1/2 ) / ( √3/2 )

tan 30° = 1/√3

Hence , the value of relation tan 30° is 1/√3

Answer:

1.21x

Step-by-step explanation:

we can write 100% as 1

then 10% is 0.1

then 1.1x = is first

1.1*1.1x = 1.21x or 121% of x

The savings of $x grows 10% each year after 2 year it will become  1.21x .

Compound interest is an interest accumulated on the principal and interest together over a given time period. The interest accumulated on a principal over a period of time is also accounted under the principal.

The formula of Compound interest :

[tex]A= P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{t}[/tex]

where,

A = Final amount

P = initial Principal

t = Time in years

r = rate of interest per annum  

According to the question

Principal = $x

Rate of interest per annum  =  10%

Time in years = t

By using formula of Compound interest :

[tex]A= P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{t}[/tex]  

Now ,

Substituting the values in the formula

[tex]A= x(1+\frac{10}{100} )^{2}[/tex]

Answer: 3(3)+6=15

Step-by-step explanation:

X=3 and the Y=6

( ) means multiplying so it 3 multiplied (3) and add 6 which Is the Y then you got the answer which is 15.

The values of the variables are x = -2, y = 6 and z = -3

The system is given as:

4x + 2y - 2z = 10 (A)

2x + 8y + 4z = 32 (B)

30x + 12y - 4z = 24 (C)

The easiest variable to eliminate is z.

Combine A and B

2[4x + 2y - 2z = 10]

⇒

8x + 4y - 4z = 20

+ 2x + 8y + 4z = 32

⇒ 10x + 12y = 52

Combine B and C

2x + 8y + 4z = 32

30x + 12y - 4z = 24

⇒ 32x + 20y = 56

Divide through by 4

8x + 5y = 14

So, we have:

10x + 12y = 52

and

8x + 5y = 14

Multiply 10x + 12y = 52 by 8/10

8/10[10x + 12y = 52]

⇒ 8x + 9.6y = 41.6

Combine 8x + 9.6y = 41.6 and 8x + 5y = 14

8x + 9.6y = 41.6

- [8x + 5y = 14]

⇒ 4.6y = 27.6

Divide

y = 6

Substitute y = 6 in 8x + 5y = 14

8x + 5 * 6 = 14

8x + 30 = 14

Subtract 30

8x = -16

Divide

x = -2

Substitute y = 6 and x = -2 in (A)

4x + 2y - 2z = 10

4(-2) + 2(6) - 2z = 10

-8 + 12- 2z = 10

Evaluate the like terms

-2z = 6

Divide

z = -3

Hence. the values of the variables are x = -2, y = 6 and z = -3

The length of each side of the base of the pyramid is 14 cm

From the question, we are to determine the length of each side of the base of the pyramid

The volume of a square-based pyramid is given by

V = 1/3(b²h)

Where V is the volume

b is the length of the base

and h is the height

From the given information,

V = 392 cm³

h = 6 cm

Putting the parameters into the equation, we get

392 = 1/3(b²× 6)

392 = b² ×2

b² = 392/2

b² = 196

b = √196

b = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we can find the area of a trapezoid from its bases and height in the following formula:

[tex]A=\frac{a + b}{2}h[/tex]

where...

A: area

a: one base

b: other base

h: height

here, we can see that our two bases are 9 and 17, and that our height is 8.

Now, let's plug these values into our formula:

a: 9

b: 17

h: 8

[tex]A=\frac{a + b}{2}h[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{9 + 17}{2}8[/tex]

Now, we can simplify:

[tex]A=\frac{9 + 17}{2}8[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{26}{2}8[/tex]

A = 13 · 8

A = 104

The rate at which the diameter decreases is 0.0159cm/min.

Given that a snowball melts and its surface area decreases at a rate of 1cm²/min.

The surface area of a solid object may be a measure of the entire area that the surface of the thing occupies.

The surface area of the snowball is A=4πr² because the snowball is spherical.

Here, r is the radius of the snowball.

Let D be the diameter of the snowball.

As the radius is half of the diameter

The surface area of a snowball can also be rewritten as

A=4π(D÷2)²

A=4π(D²÷4)

A=πD²

Given that the surface area decreases by 1cm²/min, so,

dA÷dt=-1cm²/min.

Differentiating both sides in A=πD² and get

dA÷dt=2πD(dD÷dt)

Given that the diameter is 12cm.

Substitute these values in the formula and find dD÷dt

-1=2π×12×(dD÷dt)

-1=24π×(dD÷dt)

-1÷24π=dD÷dt

-0.0159≈dD÷dt

Hence, the diameter decreases at the rate of 0.0159 cm/min when the diameter is 12 cm.
