D. She can check to see if the rate of change between the first two ordered pairs is the same as the rate of change between the first and last ordered pairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rate of change between first two ordered pairs and the second two ordered pairs:

1. Points (2,4) and (3,9). Rate of change:

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{9-4}{3-2}=\dfrac{5}{1}=5$

2. Points (3,9) and (4,16). Rate of change:

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{16-9}{4-3}=\dfrac{7}{1}=7$

The rate of change for the linear function must the same for each two points on the graph of the function. In this case, the reate of change differs, so this function is not linear and correct option is D.

What is the common difference in the following arithmetic sequence?7,3,-1,-5

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is found by subtracting the second term from a previous term

So...

3-7 would give the common difference = -4

-1-3 would give the common difference= -4

-5-1 would give the common difference= -4

.A bag contains 3 red checkers and 5 black checkers. A checker is selected, kept out of the bag, and then another checker is sel

cupoosta [38]

Answer: 15 / 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red checkers = 3

Number of black checkers = 5

Total number of checkers = 8

P(black, then red) = 5/8 × 3/7 = 15/56

We should note that the probability to pick a black checker first will be 5 out of 8. Then, there'll be 7 checkers left and the probability to pick a res checker will be 3/7. We then multiply the probabality of each together.
