Which of the following relationships represents a positive correlation between two variables?
As a student’s class attendance decreases, the student’s overall grade remains the same
As the number of hours a person exercises decreases, the weight of that person increases
As the number of miles driven increases, the amount of the gasoline in the tank decreases
As the amount of water plant receives increases, the growth rate of the plant increase.
Correct Answer : D
Correlation of two variables falls into:
Positive correlation: an increase in one variable causes another variable to increase
Negative correlation: an increase in one variable causes another one to decrease
No correlation: a change in one variable does not cause any response in another variable.
From the given choices
Option a is no correlation
Option b is a negative correlation
Option c is a negative correlation
Option d is a positive correlation

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
we follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.
2(4x+3)=7x+5
Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 2
(2*4x)+(2*3)=7x+5
8x+6=7x+5
Subtract 6 from both sides
8x+6-6=7x+5-6
8x=7x-1
Subtract 7x on both sides
8x-7x=7x-7x-1
X=-1
Thus, the value of unknown value of x is -1.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.
Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week.Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.
As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous/rangedata. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:
The first step is to divide both sides by 4
Since 5 is subtracted, we add 5 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation
Thus, the value of x is 7.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
We need to find how many mL are in 2.5 teaspoons. We need to use dimensional analysis to solve this problem as follows.
Converting between teaspoon and mL uses the following conversions:
Or
We want to end up with mL, we utilize the second conversion and set up the following equation.
Thus, 2.5 teaspoons can hold 12.325 mL.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Since the distribution is symmetric, the mean, mode, and median will all be equal. The shape of the distribution will be bell-shaped.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Based on the above data, the horizontal axis will be tree type and vertical axis will represent the number of trees.
Based on these, a bar graph is appropriate to represent the number trees.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
the question requires we find the cost of two syringes.
If we let x be the cost of two 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 by 35
The cost of 2 syringes is $32.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
We use 1 L =1000 mL 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, 0.5 L is equivalent to 500 mL.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
the median of a data set is the element that is found on the middle position. It is found by organizing the elements from the smallest to largest.
The data set above arranged from the smallest to largest is:
11, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 17, 17, 18, 22, 26
The number of elements is odd and the median is found in the (N+1)/2 th position. Here N=11, and the median falls in (11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.
The element 14 falls in the 6th position, which is our median of the given data set.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
an independent variable is one that when changed, causes the other variable(s) to change. In our case, calories burned, distance traveled, energy used increase when cycling speed increases.
Therefore, speed is the independent variable while other variables are dependent.
