17. a researcher measures three variables, x, y, and z for each individual in a sample of n = 20. the pearson correlations for this sample are rxy = 0.6, rxz = 0.4, and ryz = 0.7. a. find the partial correlation between x and y, holding z constant. b. find the partial correlation between x and z, holding y constant. (hint: simply switch the labels for the variables y and z to correspond with the labels in the equation.) gravetter, frederick j. statistics for the behavioral sciences (p. 526). cengage learning. kindle edition.

Someone answer this asap for the first five terms of a sequence are shown. 5, 11, 23, 47, 95, . . which recursive function defines the nth term in the sequence for n > 1? a. f(n) = f(n - 1) + 6 b) f(n) = f(n - 1) + 48 c) f(n) = 3 • f(n - 1) + 1 d) f(n) = 3 • f(n - 1) - 4
