The number of times a player has golfed in one’s lifetime is compared to the number of strokes it takes the player to complete 18 holes. the correlation coefficient relating the two variables is –0.26.

which best describes the strength of the correlation, and what is true about the causation between the variables?

it is a weak negative correlation, and it is not likely causal.
it is a weak negative correlation, and it is likely causal.
it is a strong negative correlation, and it is not likely causal.

Drag and drop the answers into the boxes to complete this informal argument explaining how to derive the formula for the volume of a cone. since the volume of a cone is part of the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height, find the volume of a cylinder first. the base of a cylinder is a circle. the area of the base of a cylinder is , where r represents the radius. the volume of a cylinder can be described as slices of the base stacked upon each other. so, the volume of the cylinder can be found by multiplying the area of the circle by the height h of the cylinder. the volume of a cone is of the volume of a cylinder. therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 1/2 1/3πr^2h 1/2πr^2h πr^2h πr^2

In which direction does the left side of the graph of this function point? a(x) = 3x - x2 + 4x - 2
