My Grandmother made the following for Thanksgiving: turkey,stuffing,and potatoes
damaskus [11]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: The right answer is the C) "My grandmother made the following for Thanksgiving: turkey, stuffing, and potatoes."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit on the answer, it can be added that colons are commonly used to introduce a list or a series, as in this example. The speaker is listing the dishes that his or her relative made for Thanksgiving, so a colon is placed preceding such list of items. The colon in options A and B are unnecessary, and the colon in option D should be replaced by a comma.

What are the values of a and b?
topjm [15]

Answer:

a = –0.4 and b = 0.15

Explanation:

<em>Shanti wrote the predicted values for a data set using the line of best fit y = 2.55x – 3.15. She computed two of the residual values. What are the values of a and b?</em>

<em />

Residual values are the difference between Given and predicted value. That is:

Residual Value = Given - Predicted

Taking the values of the table:

a = 4.1 - 4.5 = -0.4

a = -0.4

And b is:

b = 7.2 - 7.05 = 0.15

b = 0.15

That means right answer is:

<h3>a = –0.4 and b = 0.15</h3>

A dictionary is an alphabetically arranged listing of words that contains different information about them, such as their definitions, examples, origin, pronunciation, etc.

A glossary is an alphabetically arranged listing of words that contains words from a specific field with their definitions. For terms such as these, it would be best to use a glossary of literary terms.
