If an object is dropped from a height, its downward speed theoretically increases
linearly over time because the object is subject to the steady pull of gravity. Here
are observational data on the speed of a ball dropped from a certain height at time

So for question 17- is it linear? (obviously not or it would be a straight line). But it has a strong positive relationship.

howard-wolowitz · Answer

ok so I'm gonna so, no its not linear but is has a strong postive relationship.
Is this a suitable answer?

xmissalycatx · Answer

For the first one, yes I do believe so.

Ok cool!

xmissalycatx · Answer

I'm having troubles coming up with a formula, though to find the .3

@ganeshie8 please please help me <3

howard-wolowitz · Answer

yes cause we have to do speed

xmissalycatx · Answer

Do you know the standard deviation of it still?

xmissalycatx · Answer

because if I have that I might be able to think up a formula..
