Which of the following relationships represents a no correlation between two variables?

 

Before we compare the values of the options, we convert the decimals to fractions.

5.4 becomes 54/10

6.25 becomes 625/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 11/2, 54/10, 13/3, 625/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

11/2*300=1650

54/10*300=1620

13/3*300=1300

625/100*300=1875

From the above, 1875 is the greatest value which corresponds to 6.25. Therefore, 6.25 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

: We need to find the total rainfall for the months of May, June, and July using the given graph.

In the month of May, rainfall is between 3 and 4, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in May is 3.5 inches

On June, rainfall was 3 inch and on July the rainfall was 2.5 inches. Thus,

Total rainfall=3.5 inches+3 inches+ 2.5 inches=9.0 inches

We need to find the radius in order to find the area of the pizza.

Radius of pizza

The area of the pizza

But r=4.5

Thus, the area of the pizza is 20.25  in2.

NOTE:  is used as is since values of pi may vary e.g. 3.14, 3.142, 22/7. Hence we use pi symbol to generalize.

We usea calculator to find the product of

1.6*0.93=1.488

: a ratio can be thought of a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. In ratio form, to means per.

Now, the class has 26 girls and 22 boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:

The fraction above reduces into

In ratio form, girls: boys=13:11

Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 48 students is 13 to 11.

: the question requires we find the cost of four syringes.

If we let x be the cost of four syringes, then we set up a proportion equation with cost as numerator and number of syringes as denominator. The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x

Rearranging the above

Divide both sides of the equation by 55

Thus, the cost of 4 syringes is $48.

The distribution of the weights of the newborn babies is symmetric meaning the mean, mode, and median are all equal. Thus, the bell-shape curve describes this kind of distribution of weights

: we are needed to find the portion of burger the two other friends share between themselves. A whole burger is 1, and we know that,

One friend=1/4 of 1=1/4*1=1/4

Remaining amount=1-1/4=4/4-1/4=3/4

Thus, ¾ of burger is left for two friends to share among themselves. Then, each friend will get

So, the other two friends will each get 3/8 of the burger.

We know that 1 L =1000 mL, which we use to convert between the two units. The conversion fractions of interconverting are:

And

Since we want to end up with millimeters, the second conversion is used in converting L to mL as:

Thus, 3.2 L is equivalent to 3200 mL.

In this scenario, we use the given chart and scale provided to find the number of each coin and select the right number of coins the student collected.

It is clear that the first choice if the correct answer. The child collected 250 pennies, 200 nickels, 125 dimes, and 25 quarters.
