Answer:
In statistics and econometrics, the first-difference (FD) estimator is an estimator used to address the problem of omitted variables with panel data. It is consistent under the assumptions of the fixed effects model. In certain situations it can be more efficient than the standard fixed effects (or "within") estimator.
First differences are the differences between consecutive y-‐values in tables of values with evenly spaced x-‐values. If the first differences of a relation are constant, the relation is _______________________________ If the first differences of a relation are not constant, the relation is ___________________________
Answer:
b and c
Step-by-step explanation:
The Triangle Inequality Theorem lets us know that the sum of the two shortest sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side of the triangle.
In both A and D, the sum of the shortest two sides are equal to, not greater than the third side, so they will not form a triangle.
In B, 12+20 is 32, which is greater than 25. And in C, 18+24 is 42, which is greater than 30, so they both will form a triangle.
It would be: 8 - (1 1/4 + 2 3/8)
8 - (5/4 + 19/8)
8-29/8
64-29/8
35/8 inches OR 4.375 is your answer
