Answer:

The new position of the fish is  = -23.05 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are being told that a fish is swimming 10.2 feet below the water surface

i.e. -10.2 feet

The fish then descend another 12.85 feet.

This means;

The first goes down from its first initial depth.

Mathematically, the subtraction expression that can be used to find the new position of the fish is:

= ( -10.2 + (-12.85) ) feet

Then, the new position of the fish is

= -23.05 feet

Alice has a 4-inch by 5-inch photo of your school’s championship girls’ ice hockey team. To celebrate their recent
Pachacha [2.7K]

Alice should pick the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In order for a part of the photo to not be cut off, the enlarged photo's dimensions should be of a constant ratio with the original photo's dimensions.

We divide the dimensions of the enlarged-photo with the dimensions of the original photo to check which has a constant ratio.

Step 2:

The original photo was a 4-inch by 5-inch photo.

Option 1 is 7-inch by 9-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{7}{4} = 1.75, \frac{9}{5} = 1.8. The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

Option 2 is 8-inch by 10-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{8}{4} = 2, \frac{10}{5} = 2. The ratios are the same so this can be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

Option 3 is 12-inch by 16-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{12}{4} = 3, \frac{16}{5} = 3.2. The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

So the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch should be picked.

A law school administrator was interested in whether a student's score on the entrance exam can be used to predict a student's g
frutty [35]

Answer:

The correlation coeffcient for this case was provided:

r =0.934

And this coefficient is very near to 1 the maximum possible value, so then we can interpret that the relationship between the entrace exam score and the grade point average are strongly linearly correlated .

We can also find the r^2 who represent the determination coefficient and we got:

r^2 = 0.934^2= 0.872

And the interpretation for this is that a linear model explains appproximately 87.2% of the variability between the two variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

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 correlation coeffcient for this case was provided:

r =0.934

And this coefficient is very near to 1 the maximum possible value, so then we can interpret that the relationship between the entrace exam score and the grade point average are strongly linearly correlated .

We can also find the r^2 who represent the determination coefficient and we got:

r^2 = 0.934^2= 0.872

And the interpretation for this is that a linear model explains appproximately 87.2% of the variability between the two variables
