The authors of a paper studied the relationship between and scores on a number of different motor ability tests for 218 children. They reported the following correlation coefficients. Motor Ability Test Correlation b/w test score and Arch Height

Height of counter -0.02
movement jump
Hopping: average height -0.10
Hopping: average power -0.09
Balance, closed, one leg 0.04
Toe flexion 0.05

Required:
a. Interpret the value of the correlation coefficient between average hopping height and arch height. What does the fact that the correlation coefficient is negative say about the relationship? Do higher arch heights tend to be paired with higher or lower average hopping heights?
b. The title of the paper suggests that having a small value for arch height (flat-footedness) is not a disadvantage when it comes to motor skills. Do the given correlation coefficients support this conclusion? Explain.

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
