Priya creates a scatter plot showing the relationship between the number of steps she takes and her heart rate. The correlation coefficient of the line of best fit is 0.88. 1. Are they correlated? Explain your reasoning.

2. Does either of the variables cause the other to change? Explain your reasoning.

Positive correlation exists ;

Number of Steps taken will cause heart rate to increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation refers to the relationship which exists which exists between two variables. It shows how an increase in one variable affects the other variable. Variables are divided into independent and dependent variables. Correlation may either be positive, negative or non - existent.

Given the correlation Coefficient of 0.88 between heart rate and number of steps taken, the R value being close to 1 depicts a strong positive relationship or correlation.

Correlation between number of steps taken and heart rate.

Yes, The number of steps taken will cause the hear rate to increase. Hence, the dependent variable is is heart rate and it depends on the number of steps taken (independent variable).

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
