Find the slope(s) twice, first the slope of the line connecting (2,4) and (4,8) and then the slope of the line connecting (2,4) and (8,12).  If you get different slopes, then it'd be safe for you to conclude that the points do not lie on the same line.

In a random sample of fivefive microwave​ ovens, the mean repair cost was ​$75.0075.00 and the standard deviation was ​$13.0013.
Radda [10]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

As per given , we have

Sample size : n= 5

Degree pf freedom = : df= 5-1=4

\mu=\$75.00

\sigma=\$13.00

Significance level for 90% confidence = \alpha=1-0.90=0.1

Using t-value table , t-critical value for 90% confidence:

t_{\alpha/2, df}=t_{0.05, 4}=2.132.

Margin of error of \mu: E=t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\(2.132)\dfrac{13}{\sqrt{5}}=12.3949720129\approx12.39

Interpretation : The repair cost will be within $12.39 of the real population mean value \mu 90% of the time.

The Pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2<br> Solve for b.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

given

a² + b² = c² ( isolate b² by subtracting a² from both sides )

b² = c² - a² ( take the square root of both sides )

\sqrt{b^{2} } = ± \sqrt{c^2-a^2}

b = ± \sqrt{c^2-a^2}

What is the equation of the line shown in this graph? <br><br> The points are (-2, 2) and (-2, -3)
KengaRu [80]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-3}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-3-2}{-2-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{-3-2}{-2+2}\implies \stackrel{und efined}{\cfrac{-5}{0}}


so our slope is undefined, that means a vertical line, check the picture below
