One method of separation of homegeneous mixtures is called distillation and its based on the various boiling points of the component of mixture.
In other words the answer is letter D
The variables have a negative association/correlation, because when one value increases (ex: x) the other decreases (see y)
If you would put a line through the dataset most of the points would be quite a bit off the line so the association is only moderate and not strong
so the answer is it is a "moderate negative association"
It is d, -8.-5. I did it on paper
So slope intercept form is y=mx+b m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The equation of this line would be y=1/4x+2 because the rise over run (slope) is 2/8 or 1/4 and the line intercepts the y axis at 2.
