The first 3 choices are not outliers, so the answer is D.
With even just two points, you can find the equation of a line in slope-intercept form.
Slope-intercept form: 
where 
is the slope and 
is the y-intercept
<u>1) Solve for the slope (</u><u>)</u>
The equation to solve for the slope is 
when the two points are 
and 
. Plug the coordinates of these points into the equation and solve for .
Then, plug into .
<u>1) Solve for the y-intercept (</u><u>)</u>
Then, take any of the given points and plug it into along with the slope. Isolate to get the y-intercept. Then, plug both m and b back into to get your final equation.
I hope this helps!
So the best way to do these is concentration1 (%) × volume1 = concentration2 × volume2
Or C1V1 + C2V2 = C3V3, where C1 = 100% (bc ALL pecans), V1 = 6 lbs, C2 = 70%, C3 = 82%:
100%×6 + 70%×v2 = 82%×(6+v2)
100%=1.00, 70%=.7, 82%=.82
note: if none is poured out then v3 = v1+v2
6 + .7v2 = .82 (6+v2)
6 + .7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2
6 + .7v2 -.7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2 -.7v2
6 = 4.92 + .12v2
6-4.92 = 4.92-4.92 + .12v2
1.08 = .12v2
.12v2/.12 = 1.08/.12
v2 = 9 lbs
that's only v2!!!
For the final poundage, we need v3:
v3 = 6 + v2 = 6 + 9 = 15 lbs

Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the first two terms is ...
1.2/1.5 = 4/5 = 0.8
That is also the ratio of successive adjacent terms.
0.96/1.2 = 0.768/0.96 = 0.8
The common ratio is 0.8.
