the number of wins for a high school football team is measured for the season. when the team plays at home, it is generally believed that they will win. comparing the location of the game and the number of wins, a correlation coefficient of −0.11 is calculated. what would this imply about the football team winning at home?

a. the scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. the data has a strong, negative correlation, and a causal relationship exists between the team playing at home and winning.

b. the scatter plot would closely resemble a straight line with a negative slope. the data has a strong, negative correlation, but causation cannot be determined.

c. the scatter plot would not be represented by a line of best fit with a negative slope. there is a weak correlation between the football team playing at home and winning, and a causal relationship exists between the team playing at home and winning.

d. there is no causation and almost no correlation between the football team playing at home and winning.

Browning labs is testing a new growth inhibitor for a certain type of bacteria. the bacteria naturally grows exponentially each hour at a rate of 6.2%. the researchers know that the inhibitor will make the growth rate of the bacteria less than or equal to its natural growth rate. the sample currently contains 100 bacteria. the container holding the sample can hold only 300 bacteria, after which the sample will no longer grow. however, the researchers are increasing the size of the container at a constant rate allowing the container to hold 100 more bacteria each hour. they would like to determine the possible number of bacteria in the container over time. create a system of inequalities to model the situation above, and use it to determine how many of the solutions are viable.
