A light bulb distributor was given a study from an LED bulb manufacturer showing that LED light bulbs are better for the environment than traditionalbulbs. Is there an incentive for this study to be biased? Why or why not?
<span>Yes, because the LED bulb manufacturer may benefit from the survey results.

If the light bulb distributor will decide get more stock of LED bulb due to the study given by the LED company, then, the LED company will benefit from it.
I would say that B) is the correct answer hope this helps!!
Y = mx + b
b: y-intercept (when x equals zero)
m: slope ((y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁))
Y - Intercept:
To find the y-intercept, just look at the table. The y-intercept is whatever y equals when x equals zero. In this case it is -8.
Slope:
(y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)
Pick two points and substitute them into this equation. Let's use (-3, 1) and (-2, -2).
(-2 - 1) ÷ (-2 + 3)
-3 ÷ 1
-3
Now substitute these values back into the equation.
y = mx + b
y = -3x - 8
The answer is a.
