On a coordinate plane, 2 lines are shown. Line A B has points (negative 4, negative 2) and (4, 4). Line C D has points (0, negat

ive 3) and (4, 0).
Which statement best explains the relationship between lines AB and CD?

Answer:

Option A) They are parallel because their slopes are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Line AB:

(-4, -2), (4,4)

Line CD:

(0,-3), (4,0)

Formula to calculate slope =

(x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2)\\\\\\text{Slope} = m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Slope of AB =

(-4, -2), (4,4)\\\\m_{AB} = \dfrac{4-(-2)}{4-(-4)} = \dfrac{6}{8} = \dfrac{3}{4}

Slope of CD =

(0,-3), (4,0)\\\\m_{CD} = \dfrac{0-(-3)}{4-0} = \dfrac{3}{4}

Thus,

m_{AB} = m_{CD}

Thus, the two lines are parallel.

Option A) They are parallel because their slopes are equal.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

d. H0: (\mu_e - \mu_g) = 0 vs. Ha: (\mu_e - \mu_g) \neq 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".  

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".  

On this case the Management try to determine if there is a difference in the average investment/quad between using electricity and using gas. So this needs to be on the alternative hypothesis. And the complement of the alternative hypothesis would be on the null hypothesis.  

Null hypothesis :\mu_e = \mu_g

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_e \neq \mu_g

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis :\mu_e - \mu_g = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_e - \mu_g \neq 0

Other important thing is that on the alternative hypothesis we never can have the symbol equal.  

So on this case the best options is:

d. H0: (\mu_e - \mu_g) = 0 vs. Ha: (\mu_e - \mu_g) \neq 0

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Rectangular Prism

Step-by-step explanation:

We usually see building shaped as a 3D rectangle. If this is the type of building you are talking about, we use a rectangular prism in order to build the building with correct measurements.

A share of stock in the Lofty Cheese Company is quoted at 25 1/4. Suppose you hold 30 shares of that stock, which you bought at
baherus [9]
Since each share was purchased when it was still quoted at 20 1/4, then when the stock value increases, it gains (25 1/4 - 20 1/4) = $5.00 for each stock. Since you're to sell 30 shares of your stock, that means you'll be making a profit of (30 x 5 ) = $150.00. Thus, the answer is C<span>.</span>
