Which of the following relationships represents a positive correlation between two variables?

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.

To find the least common denominator (LCD) of the fractions 1/2, 2/3, and 4/5, follow these steps:

Step 1: Identify the denominators

The denominators are 2, 3, and 5.

Step 2: Find the least common multiple (LCM)

The LCM of 2, 3, and 5 is the smallest number that all three denominators divide into evenly.

• Prime factorization:
  • 2=2
  • 3=3
  • 5=5

Since 2, 3, and 5 are all prime numbers, their LCM is:

2×3×5=30

to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile, find total time divided by total distance covered.

Total distance=4+4=8 miles

Total time=28+32 =60 minutes

From the above, the athlete runs 8 miles in 60 minutes, so the athlete will take how minutes to cover 1 mile.

So, the athlete covers 1 mile in 7.5 minutes.

The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 9/2, 44/10, 10/3, 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

9/2*300=1350

44/10*300=1320

10/3*300=1000

425/100*300=1275

From the above, 1350 is the greatest value which corresponds to 9/2. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

In this problem, we assume the truck carries a whole cargo. Thus, total weight is 516 lb divided by 1/3. Thus,

We change the division sign to product and multiply 516 by reciprocal of 1/3. Then,

The weight of the cargo will be 1548 lbs.

To solve this equation, we use a calculator and find the product as:

2.50*0.25=0.625

scatter plots can of three types: positive, negative and no correlation. A positive correlation scatter plot shows that as one variable increase, the other variable increases. A positive correlation can be visually depicted below.

In a negative correlation, the change in one variable is inversely proportional to another variable. That is, as one variable increases, the other variable decreases as shown below.

The third type of scatter plot is a no-correlation scatter plot. In this type of plot, there is no defined relationship between one variable and another one as in the curve below.

If we look at the relationship between the time the student listens to music and his test score, it is evident that no relationship exists between the two variables. Thus, this is a type of no correlation scatter plot.

To find the true statement we need to analyze the given statements.

For statement 1: the points per game decreased five times between 1996 and 2015. So, the statement is false.

For statement 2: the lowest points scored per game was in 1998-99 season. So, the statement is false.

For statement 3: 2008-09 was the season the chargers scored the greatest number of points per game. So, this statement is true.

When dealing with percent problems, the following is utilized to find the unknown variable.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

From the problem above, we are looking for the amount of gratuity the couple can leave.

Let t be the amount of gratuity. Translating into an equation, we have

The gratuity is 15% of the total bill, which becomes

Here, of means multiply and we also convert percent into decimal before multiplying.

So, the value of t=5.76

Thus, a couple will leave a gratuity of $5.76, which is about $6.00.

The initial step is to establish the relationship between area of a circle and the radius. The area of the circle is given by the formula

Now, substituting the 49 π in2 in place of A in the equation above becomes:

We want to find r, therefore, we rearrange the equation as

Divide both sides by

Take square root both sides of the equation

The radius of the circle is 7 in, and the circumference of the circle is determined as follows

Substituting the value of r=7 becomes

Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is 49  in2 is 14
