A study was conducted that showed strong positive correlation between eating strawberries and the number of freckles on a person's face. Can we say that eating strawberries causes freckles? Explain. Hint: Think about what causes freckles to be more visible. Name a lurking variable for this situation.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
No we cannot say that eating strawberries causes freckles. The question says that the study showed a strong positive correlation. The answer is no because a positive correlation does not mean that there is a causation. When two things are said to correlate, it does not mean that one causes the other, correlation between two things could be as a result of another third variable that affects the both of them. The lurking variable here is going to be sunlight. this is because sunlight exposure affects both variables by causing increases in the growth of strawberries and freckles.
The answer to whether eating strawberries causes freckles is; No, it doesn't cause freckles
What is a lurking variable?
A lurking variable is an explanatory variable that was not considered in a study, but yet affects the value of the response variable in the study.
In this question, the lurking variable is going to be sunlight due to the fact that sunlight exposure affects both variables by causing increase in the growth of strawberries and freckles.
Thus, we can conclude that there is no way we can say that eating strawberries causes freckles due to the fact that a positive correlation does not mean that there is a causation.

What is a right-angle triangle?It's a form of a triangle with one 90-degree angle that follows Pythagoras' theorem and can be solved using the trigonometry function.
Trigonometric functions examine the interaction between the dimensions and angles of a triangular form.
The value of 'x' is given by the sine of the angle ∠GIH. And the sine of an angle is the ratio of the normal and hypotenuse of the right-angle triangle. Then we have
sin 17° = 4.5 / x
x = 15.4
The value of the variable 'x' using the sine formula will be 15.4 units.

x – 5y = 6
–x + 2y = –3
–3y = 3
What is the value of y?
Substitute the value of y back into one of the original equations to find the value of x. What is the value of x?
Answers: x = 1 and y = -1
Explanation:
Start where your teacher left off, which is -3y = 3.
We solve for y by dividing both sides by -3
That turns -3y = 3 into y = -1
Then we use this y value to find x
x - 5y = 6
x - 5(-1) = 6
x + 5 = 6
x = 6-5
x = 1
The solution is (x,y) = (1, -1)

Answer:
1. x = 54, y = 114,
missing angles => 66° and 114°
2. x = 42, y = 14,
Missing angles => 84°, 86°
3. x = 40, y = 50
Missing angles => 105°, 75°
Step-by-step explanation:
1. y° = 114° (corresponding angles are congruent)
(x + 12)° + y° = 180° (linear pair angles)
Substitute
x + 12 + 114 = 180
x + 126 = 180
Subtract 126 from each side
x = 180 - 126
x = 54
✔️Find the missing angles by plugging in the values of x and y in each case
(x + 12)° = 54 + 12 = 66°
y = 114°
2. ✔️Find x:
(2x)° + 96° = 180° (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)
Subtract 96 from each side
2x = 180 - 96
2x = 84
x = 84/2
x = 42
✔️Find y:
(3y + 44)° + 94° = 180° (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)
3y + 44 + 94 = 180
3y + 138 = 180
3y = 180 - 138
3y = 42
y = 42/3
y = 14
✔️Missing angles:
(2x)°
Plug in the value of x
= 2(42) = 84°
(3y + 44)°
Plug in the value of y
3(14) + 44 = 86°
3.
✔️Find x:
3x - 15 = 105 (corresponding angles are congruent)
3x = 105 + 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3
x = 40
✔️Find y:
(3x - 15)° + (y + 25)° = 180° (linear pair angles are supplementary)
Plug in the value of x to solve for y
3(40) - 15 + y + 25 = 180
120 - 15 + y + 25 = 180
Add like terms
130 + y = 180
y = 180 - 130
y = 50
✔️Missing angles:
(3x - 15)°
Plug in the value of x
3(40) - 15 = 105°
(y + 25)°
Plug in the value of y
50 + 25 = 75°
In the diagram below, OP is circumscribed about quadrilateral ABCD. what is the value of x?
This is because the opposite angles of any inscribed quadrilateral (aka cyclic quadrilateral) are always supplementary. So x+130 = 180 solves to x = 50.
If OP is circumscribed about quadrilateral ABCD then the value of x is 50 degrees, Option B is correct.
What is Quadrilateral?A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon, having four edges and four corners.
A quadrilateral is inscribed insider a circle with centre p.
ABCD is a quadrilateral
We have to find the value of x.
As we know that the sum of the opposite side measures is 180 degrees.
m∠A + m∠C = 180
x + 130 =180
Subtract 130 from both sides
x = 180-130
x= 50 degrees.
Hence, if OP is circumscribed about quadrilateral ABCD then the value of x is 50 degrees, Option B is correct.

The Brady & Matthew Camera Company has just come out with their newest professional quality digital camera, the ToughPix1. The company is selling this camera only through its new mobile app at a profit of $221 per camera. This purchase comes with a guarantee that, barring gross negligence, if the camera breaks in the first two years after purchase, Brady & Matthew will replace it free of charge. Replacing a camera in this way costs the company $4900. Suppose for each ToughPix1 there is a 3% chance that it will need to be replaced exactly once, a 2% chance that it will need to be replaced exactly twice, and a 95% chance that it will not need to be replaced.
Answer:
Brad & Matthew can expect to lose money from selling these cameras of -$122
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation to determine if it should expect to make or lose money from selling them and How much?
First step is to calculate the expected costs
Expected costs= (0.03* $4900 ) + (0.02* $4900 * 2)
Expected costs=$147+$196
Expected costs=$343
Now let determine the amount of profit or Loss that the company will be making in the long-run on each camera sold
Expected Profit or loss =($221-$343)
Expected Profit or loss =-$122
Therefore it Should expect to LOSE money from selling them of the amount of -$122

For what value of k will (k – 5)x²+ 2ky²-5x + 6y – 3 = 0 represents a circle? (
Answer:
This isn't going to be a circle even if we choose k to be -5.
I think there has to be an error in the question.
Step-by-step explanation:
We want the coefficient of x^2 and y^2 to be the same so we will want to solve:
k-5=2k
Subtract k on both sides:
-5=k
You should verify it will give a circle.
(k – 5)x²+ 2ky²-5x + 6y – 3 = 0 with k=-5:
(-5– 5)x²+ 2*-5y²-5x + 6y – 3 = 0
-10x²+ -10y²-5x + 6y – 3 = 0
Add 3 on both sides:
-10x²+ -10y²-5x + 6y = 3
Divide both sides by -10:
x²+ y²+5/10x -6/10y = -3/10
Gather the x's together and gather the y's together:
x²+5/10x+y²-6/10y = -3/10
We will begin to take steps to complete square for each the x part and the y part.
For each v^2+kv, add (k/2)^2 with goal to write as (x+k/2)^2. Remember whatever you do to one side you must do to the other.
x²+5/10x+(5/[2×10])^2+y²-6/10y+(-6/[2×10])^2 = -3/10+(5/[2×10])^2+(-6/[2×10])^2
Since radius square is not positive we can stop here. The radius has to be a real number after all. If you aren't convinced you can continue to write in center-radius form.

(x+1/4)²+(y-3/10)² = -59/400
