uppose the correlation between two variables, math attitude (x) and math achievement (y) was found to be .78. Based on this statistic, we know that the proportion of the variability seen in math achievement that can be predicted by math attitude is:

The proportion of the variability seen in math achievement that can be predicted by math attitude is 0.78, the same value as the correlation coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient r between this two variables is found to be 0.78.

This coefficient can be calculated as:

where SSY' is the sum of the squares deviation from the mean for the predicted value and SSY is the sum of the squares deviation from the mean for the criterion variable.

Then, the value of the coefficient r is giving the proportion of the variability seen in the criterion value Y that can be explained by the predictor variable X.

step-by-step explanation:

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
