Answer:
slope = -1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A set of three or more points are said to be collinear if they all lie on the same straight line.
We have been given the following collinear set of points;
P(0, 3), Q(2, 0), R(4, -3)
This implies that P, Q, and R lie on the same line.
The slope of a line is defined as; (change in y)/(change in x)
Using the points P and Q, the slope of the line is calculated as;
(0-3)/(2-0) = -3/2 = -1.5
Answers:
- A) Ray QS or Ray QR
- B) Line segment QS or SQ
- C) Plane QSR
- D) Line QS or RQ
=======================================================
Explanation:
Part A)
When naming a ray, always start at the endpoint. This is the first letter and we'll start with point Q.
The second letter is the point that is on the ray where the ray aims at. We have two choices S and R as they are both on the same ray. That's why we can name this Ray QS and Ray QR.
--------------------
Part B)
A segment is named by its endpoints. The order of the endpoints doesn't matter so that's why segment QS is the same as segment SQ. To me, it seems more natural to read from left to right, so QS seems better fitting (again the order doesn't matter).
--------------------
Part C)
When forming a plane, you need 3 noncollinear points. The term "collinear" means the points all fall on the same line. So these three points cannot all fall on the same straight line. In other words, we must be able to form a triangle of some sort.
So that's how we get the name "Plane QSR". The order of the letters doesn't matter.
--------------------
Part D)
To name a line, we just need to pick two points from it. Any two will do. The order doesn't matter. So that's how we get Line QS and Line RQ as two aliases for this same line. It turns out that there are 6 different ways to name this line.
- Line QR
- Line QS
- Line RQ
- Line RS
- Line SQ
- Line SR

Answer:
Critical value is -1.98.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The value of alpha is, 
Now, in order to find the critical value, we need to subtract alpha from 1 and then look at the z-score table to find the respective 'z' value for the above result.
The probability of critical value is given as:
So, from the z-score table, the value of z-score for probability 0.976 is 1.98.
Now, in a left tailed test, we multiply the z value by negative 1 to arrive at the final answer. We do so because the area to the left of mean in a normal distribution curve is negative.
So, the z-score for critical value 0.024 in a left tailed test is -1.98.
