We are given two points: (-1, -1) and (1, -4). Slope is calculated as the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run.

The change in y is the difference of the two y coordinates (it doesn't matter the order): -1 - (-4) = 3

The change in x is the difference of the two x coordinates (this order depends on the order that you subtracted the y coordinates; they must be the same order): -1 - 1 = -2.

So, the slope is 3/-2

To find the slope of a line, we need to know the slope formula. The slope formula is:

m = \frac{y_{1}-y}{x_{1}-x}, with m being the slope and (x₁, y₁) being the coordinates of one point and (x, y) being the coordinates of the other. Now we can substitute the values of the points in our problem ( (-1,-1) and (1, -4) ) into the slope formula. Substituting, we get:

\frac{-1-(-4)}{-1-1}=

=\frac{3}{-2}=

=-1.5

That means the slope of our line is -1.5

miss Akunina [59]
20100 = 16000 * (1.02)^ t

20100/16000 = 1.02^t

1.25625 = 1.02^t

log 1.25625 = t * log 1.02

t = log 1.25625 / log 1.02

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

There appears to be statistical bias.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a likelihood of potential bias in the experiment. This is is because the results can be manipulated so that they can be in line with the organization's objectives and of the funders.

Only verified and quantified surveys are able to provide statistically unbiased results.
