Michael surveyed the basketball team and found a positive correlation of r = 0.12 between students missing games due to academic probation and spikes in the team’s scoring average. He concluded that students with poor grades did not score as many points as those with good grades, and the students with poor grades caused the team to score fewer points while on the court. Michael does not have a good argument because the information he used shows a positive correlation, which does not imply .

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
