Answer:

A) Non-collinear- does not lies on straight line

B) Collinear- lie on straight line

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to check collinearity of three points.

The points $(x_1, y_1, z_1),(x_2, y_2, z_2),(x_3, y_3, z_3)$ are said to be collinear if,

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&y_1&z_1\\x_2&y_2&z_2\\x_3&y_3&z_3\end{array}\right] = 0$

A) A(2, 5, 3), B(3, 7, 1), C(1, 4, 4)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&5&3\\3&7&1\\1&4&4\end{array}\right] \\\\=2(28-4)-5(12-1)+3(12-7)\\= 8 \neq 0$

Thus, the given points are not collinear.

B) D(0,-5,5), E(1,-2,4), F(3,4,2)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&-5&5\\1&-2&4\\3&4&2\end{array}\right] \\\\=0(-4-16)+5(2-12)+5(4+6)\\=0$

Thus, the given points are collinear.

Answer:

The answer is "The threat to internal validity is mortality".

Step-by-step explanation:

It signifies that while in terms of your study, persons were "morning." It usually signifies when people leave the studies. There will be only likely if indeed the experiment lasts a long period that it'll be a substantial danger to validity and reliability because the chance for drops increases. Eight content validity risks are history, maturity, instrument, test, choice, average regress, human engagement, and mortality.

In the isosceles triangle ABC, we have AB=AC=4. The altitude from B meets AC at H. If AH=3(HC) then determine BC.

Inga [223]

Answer:

BC=√7

Step-by-step explanation:

AC=4

AC=AH+HC

=3HC+HC

=4HC

HC=1/4AC=1/4×4=1

AH=3HC=3×1=3

BH⊥ AC

AB=AC=4

$BC=\sqrt{AB^2-AH^2} =\sqrt{4^2-3^2} =\sqrt{16-9} =\sqrt{7}$

If tatianna works 3hrs a day on school days and make $123.75 a week what is her hourly rate?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Her hourly rate is $8.25

Explanation:

Tatianna works 3 hours a day on school days and makes a total of $123.75 in a week

We know that:

There are 5 school days in a week

We are given that:

She works for 3 hours a day each of those days

Therefore:

Total number of hours worked = hours worked daily * number of days

Total number of hours worked = 3 * 5 = 15 hours in a week

The equation used to calculate Tatianna's earnings is:

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

Now, we substitute with the givens to get the hourly rate as follows:

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

123.75 = 15 * hourly rate

Hourly rate = $8.25
