What can you say about a slope a regression line for variables that are negatively associated?
The slope will be negative.The slope will be negative.The slope will be negative.The slope will be negative.
What are four types of slope?
positive slope negative slope zero slope undefined
If one slope is -1 what is the slope of the perpendicular slope?
The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.
What is the four different types of slopes?
positive slope negative slope undefined slope zero slope
What is the difference between a line with a slope of zero and no slope?
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
What happens at the end of a continental shelf?
it dives into a continental slope
What happens at the end of the continental shelf?
it dives into a continental slope
The continental rise is located?
between an abyssal plain and continental slope.
What is the difference between the continental slope and the continental rise?
The continental shelf starts from the shore to a few miles out with less gradient of slope. The continental slope starts after shelf-break with a higher slope gradient, then follows the continental rise and abyssal-plain.
What kind of plants are located in the continental slope?
There are not many plants that live in the continental slope. One of the few plants that live here is algae.
What is made of sediment and located at the bottom of the continental slope?
The accumulation of sediment at the bottom of a continental slope is referred to as continental rise. This phenomenon occurs in oceans throughout the world.
What does the continental shelf and the continental slope make up together?
They are both part of the larger structure called the continental margin where a continental plate meets an oceanic plate. The lower (deeper) end of the continental slope is called the continental rise.
Location of continental slope?
continental slope
The continental shelf continental slope and continental rise combine to form the?
The continental shelf is basically an extension of a continent into an ocean. It is underwater during interglacial periods (such as today) but dry during glacial periods. The continental slope is the sloping area between the continental shelf and the continental rise (where the continental plate meets the oceanic plate). The continental shelf and the continental slope together are called the continental margin. The continental rise is located at the bottom of the continental slope and is formed by the accumulation of sediment from the continent. Past the continental rise lies the abyssal plain which is the flat ocean floor.
List the subdivisions of the continenal margin?
The three parts of the continental margins are the Continental shelf, the Continental slope, and the Continental rise.
Can you show me a picture of the continental slope?
Here is a pic of the continental slope.
What are the five sections ocean life?
Continental slope, Continental Rise, Continental Slope, Seamont, Trench
