D.The allergies are cured when Maya takes medicine. If it were just the rose plant itself that maya is allergic to, when she takes allergy medicine she would be able to go near the plant without sneezing. This would prove that there is a correlation between the rose plant and maya's allergies.

Answer from: ShianHagen5

Option A: The pesticides used on rose plants cause allergies.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Correlation" stands for 2 or more "things" having a connection or relation between them while "causation" stands for "something" resulting or causing "something" else.

Option B: Rose plants can cause allergies in only very sensitive people. This statement has nothing whatsoever to do with proving whether going near a rose plant and getting allergies is a correlation and not causation. If anything, It is more about causation than correlation. Option C: There are symptoms other than sneezing for allergies. Again this does not prove whether going near a rose plant and getting allergies is a correlation and not causation. This statement is just referring to the allergies and not the plants. We are trying to prove the "correlation" between allergies AND plants. Option D: The allergies are cured when Maya takes medicine. This statement is more about causation than it is correlation. It does not say or prove whether going near a rose plant and getting allergies is a correlation and not causation.

Conclusion:

Option A: The pesticides used on rose plants cause allergies. This statement says that yes, going near a rose plant relates and correlates with getting allergies but it may or may not cause it. The pesticides on the plants "relate" to the allergies but that doesn't mean they cause everyone to have allergies. They each relate to each other but may or may not be the cause of each other.

Answer from: Quest

x= 1

step-by-step explanation: convert 5\frac{11}{12}5

to improper fraction. use this rule: a \frac{b}{c}=\frac{ac+b}{c}a

ac+b

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{5\times 12+11}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

5×12+11

2 simplify 5\times 125×12 to 6060

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{60+11}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

60+11

3 simplify 60+1160+11 to 7171

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

4 simplify \frac{5}{6}x

x to \frac{5x}{6}

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

5 convert 1\frac{1}{3}1

to improper fraction. use this rule: a \frac{b}{c}=\frac{ac+b}{c}a

ac+b

3.25+0.5x+\frac{1\times 3+1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

1×3+1

6 simplify 1\times 31×3 to 33

3.25+0.5x+\frac{3+1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

3+1

7 simplify 3+13+1 to 44

3.25+0.5x+\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

8 simplify 3.25+0.5x+\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}3.25+0.5x+

to \frac{13.75}{3}+\frac{4x}{3}

13.75

\frac{13.75}{3}+\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}

13.75

9 simplify \frac{13.75}{3}

13.75

to 4.5833334.583333

4.583333+\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}4.583333+

10 subtract 4.5833334.583333 from both sides

\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}-4.583333

−4.583333

11 simplify \frac{71}{12}-4.583333

−4.583333 to \frac{4}{3}

\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{4}{3}

12 multiply both sides by 33

4x=\frac{4}{3}\times 34x=

×3

13 simplify \frac{4}{3}\times 3

×3 to \frac{12}{3}

4x=\frac{12}{3}4x=

14 simplify \frac{12}{3}

to 44

4x=44x=4

15 divide both sides by 44

x=1
