Correlation always implies causation. Is this statement correct?

Answer 1

Answer:

Correlation does not always imply causation. (It's not correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation tests 2 variables' relationship, but just because they are related does not mean they necessarily cause each other.

Deer ticks can be carriers of either Lyme disease or human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). Based on a recent study, suppose that 16% of all ticks in a certain location carry Lyme disease, 10% carry HGE, and 10% of the ticks that carry at least one of these diseases in fact carry both of them. If a randomly selected tick is found to have carried HGE, what is the probability that the selected tick is also a carrier of Lyme disease

Answers

Answer:

0.2364

Step-by-step explanation:

We will take

Lyme = L

HGE = H

P(L) = 16% = 0.16

P(H) = 10% = 0.10

P(L ∩ H) = 0.10 x p(L U H)

Using the addition theorem

P(L U H) = p(L) + P(H) - P(L ∩ H)

P(L U H) = 0.16 + 0.10 - 0.10 * p(L u H)

P(L U H) = 0.26 - 0.10p(L u H)

We collect like terms

P(L U H) + 0.10P(L U H) = 0.26

This can be rewritten as:

P(L U H)[1 +0.1] = 0.26

Then we have,

1.1p(L U H) = 0.26

We divide through by 1.1

P(L U H) = 0.26/1.1

= 0.2364

Therefore

P(L ∩ H) = 0.10 x 0.2364

The probability of tick also carrying lyme disease

P(L|H) = p(L ∩ H)/P(H)

= 0.1x0.2364/0.1

= 0.2364

Solve x4 - 11x2 + 18 = 0.

Answers

Answer:

x=√2, x=-√2, x= 3 and x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation x^4 - 11x^2+18=0  

We can replace x^4 = u^2 and x^2 = u

So, the equation will become

u^2 -11u+18 = 0

Factorizing the above equation:

u^2 -9u-2u+18 =0

u(u-9)-2(u-9)=0

(u-2)(u-9)=0

u=2, u=9

As, u = x^2, Putting back the value:

x^2 =2 , x^2 =9  

taking square roots:

√x^2 =√2 ,√x^2=√9  

x=±√2 , x = ±3

so, x=√2, x=-√2, x= 3 and x=-3

Freddie has a bag of jelly beans that has the following colours. 2 purple 1 red 4 yellow 3 orange. What is the probability that Freddie will select an orange jelly bean?\ 10% 20% 30% 40%


100 point

Answers

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

3 out of the ten beans are orange

3/10=30%

Answer:

The answer is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 purple, 1 red, 4 yellow, and 3 orange jelly beans. If you add all those together, you will get 10. So, 3 out of the 10 jelly beans are orange. That is 3/10 in fraction form. 3/10 equals to 30%, so that is your answer.

Ryan earns $5 for each small dog he walks and $8 for each large dog he walks. Today he walked 8 dogs and made a total of $49. How many small dogs did Ryan walk?
Ryan walked
small dogs.

Answers

Answer:

small dogs= 5

large dogs= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the  number of small dogs be x

and the number of large dogs be y

Ryan earns $5 for each small dog he walks and $8 for each large dog he walks.

He walked 8 dogs and made a total of $49

so

5x+8y=49----------1

x+y=8---------------2

x=8-y

5(8-y)+8y=49

40-5y+8y=49

collect like terms

3y= 49-40

3y=9

divide both sides by 3

y=9/3

y=3

put y= 3 in eqn 2

x+3=8

x=8-3

x=5

X^9/7 convert from exponent form to radical form

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x^{\frac{9}{7}} = \sqrt[7]{x^9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by realising that the denominator of a fractional exponent can be expressed as the base of a radical.

Note also that the order does not matter.  You could also express it as

[tex]\sqrt[7]{x}^9[/tex]

The reason this works is that you're effectively breaking the exponent into fractions.  The first answer is the equivalent of:

[tex](x^9)^{1/7}[/tex]

and the second would be:

[tex](x^{1/7})^9[/tex]

In both cases, the exponents would be multiplied, giving the same result.

Answer:

The country's population decreased about 5.8 % during this time period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population in 1990 = 164 million

Population in 2010 = 155 million

Determine the percent decrease

The formula used is: [tex]Percent\:Decrease=\frac{Initial\:Value-New\:Value}{New\:Value}\times 100[/tex]

We have :

Initial Value = 164 million (164,000,000)

New Value = 155 million (155,000,000)

Finding percent decrease

[tex]Percent\:Decrease=\frac{Initial\:Value-New\:Value}{New\:Value}\times 100\\Percent\:Decrease=\frac{164,000,000-155,000,000}{155,000,000}\times 100\\Percent\:Decrease=\frac{9,000,000}{155,000,000}\times 100\\Percent\:Decrease=5.8\%[/tex]

So, The country's population decreased about 5.8 % during this time period.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -6x + 39[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept(value of x when y = 0).

We have that the slope is m = -6:

So [tex]y = -6x + b[/tex]

Contains point (5,9):

This means that when [tex]x = 5, y = 9[/tex]. We replace this into the equation to find b. So

[tex]y = -6x + b[/tex]

[tex]9 = -6(5) + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 39[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -6x + 39[/tex]
