In a study conducted to examine the quality of fish after 7 days in ice storage, ten raw fish of the same kind and approximately the same size were caught and prepared for ice storage. The fish were placed in ice storage at different times after being caught. A measure of fish quality was given to each fish after 7 days in ice storage. Review the accompanying sample data and scatterplot, where "Time" is the number of hours after being caught that the fish was placed in ice storage and "Fish Quality" is the measure given to each fish after 7 days in ice storage (higher numbers mean better quality). Is it appropriate to use the correlation coefficient to describe the strength of the relationship between "Time" and "Fish Quality"?

Question: The sample data and the scatter plot was not added to your question. See the attached file for the scatter plot.

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

From scatter plot, it was discovered that there is a linear relationship between the two variables and both variables are quantitative.

Therefore, it appropriate to use the correlation coefficient to describe the strength of the relationship between "Time" and "Fish Quality"?

the answer is b i just did that

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation: so we look at the formula un = a + (n-1)d

un is the amount of seats

n is the nth term aka row number

a is the original sequence/row number

d is the difference between each term

so in this a=22 d=6 and n can remain as n because we are simply formjng a rule

lets put these in the equation

un=22+(n-1)(6)

this is your answer to part a

however

lets double check that this is correct, we'll try putting it into the second term

un=a+(n-1)d

u2=22+(2-1)(6)

u2=22+6

u2=28

as the question said the second row has 28 seats so now we know the formula we made is correct.

as for part b

un=a+(n-1)

its asking us to find a row with 100 seats.

remember un was the amount of seata so all we do is substitute this in.

un=100 a=22 d=6

un=a+(n-1)d

100=22+(n-1)(6)

so now we simplify to find n which is the row number.

100-22=22+(n-1)(6)-22

78=(n-1)(6)

78/6=(n-1)(6)/6

13=n-1

13+1=n-1+1

14=n

so now we know that in the 14th row there is 100 seats.

hope this and that you understood! its my first time using the app or anyone out on here : p its also me to revise so a bunch! ask more questions if you dont understand ☺
