Find the value of x.
right triangle: hypotenuse is 9, base is 7.

There is a line with slope 1/a going through the point (a, a²). find the equation of the line perpendicular to this line at this point. (don’t let this problem intimidate you! solve the problem as you would if i’d given you specific values. just use variables instead.)

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.
