The following data gave x = the water content of snow on april 1 and y = the yield from april to july (in inches) on the snake river watershed in wyoming for 1919 to 1935. (the data were taken from an article in research notes, vol. 61, 1950, pacific northwest forest range experiment station, oregon). x 23.1 32.8 31.8 32.0 30.4 24.0 39.5 24.2 52.5 37.9 30.5 25.1 12.4 35.1 31.5 21.1 27.6 y 10.5 16.7 18.2 17.0 16.3 10.5 23.1 12.4 24.9 22.8 14.1 12.9 8.8 17.4 14.9 10.5 16.1 (a) estimate the correlation between y and x. round your answer to 3 decimal places. r =

the least common denominator is 40

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

a
