Answer:

LaTasha is indeed correct. There is no correlation between x and y. The slope of the best-fit line is zero, indicating an absence of both negative and positive correlation.

Answer:

15.7 inches

Step-by-step breakdown:

A slice of a round pie is a sector of a circle.

The perimeter of a slice equals the arc length s plus two times the radius r. P = s + 2r

s = rθ = r(16/360) = r/22.5. Therefore,

16 = (r/22.5) + 2r = (r + 45r)/22.5 = 46r/22.5

16 × 22.5 = 46r

360 = 46r

r = 7.826

D = 2r = 2 × 7.826 = 15.7 inches

Thus, the diameter of the cake should be 15.7 inches.

Verification:

\begin{array}{rcl}P & = & s + 2r\\& = & \dfrac{r}{22.5} + 2r\\\\16 & = & \dfrac{7.826}{22.5} + 2 \times 7.826\\\\16 & = & 0.35 + 15.65\\16 & = & 16.00\\\end{array}

It is accurate.

Sam needs to score 97 on his upcoming test to keep his average at 85. If you total 63, 84, 96, and 97, the sum is 340. Dividing 340 by four test scores yields an exact average of 85.
