Answer:

Occam’s razor theory.

Step-by-step explanation:

This theory is known as Occam’s razor theory.

It's a theory based on the principle whereby we give precedence to simplicity. It states that out of two competing theories, the one with the simpler explanation of an object should be embraced over the other. The reason is that the philosopher William of Ockham said that "objects are not meant to be multiplied beyond absolute necessity.”

This definition resonates with what is explained in the question.

Thus, the theory is as explained.

Dvinal [7]
If 100 miles = 1 in.

650 = 6.5 x 100  and   6.5 x 1 = 6.5   

so, if the journey is 650 m...... the map is 6.5 in.

The nth term of a sequence is given by 3n² + 11 Calculate the difference between the 6th term and the 9th term of the sequence.​
katovenus [111]

The difference between the 6th term and the 9th term of the sequence is 135

<h3>How to determine the difference</h3>

Given that the nth term is;

3n² + 11

For the 6th term, the value of n is 6

Let's solve for the 6th term

= 3( 6)^2 + 11

= 3 × 36 + 11

= 108 + 11

= 119

For the 9th term, n = 9

= 3 (9)^2 + 11

= 3( 81) + 11

= 243 + 11

= 254

The difference between the 6th and 9th term

= 254 - 119

= 135

Thus, the difference between the 6th term and the 9th term of the sequence is 135

Write an equation of the line below.
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=4x+3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of aline:

y=mx+b

<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>

<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept</em>

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfraxc{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the graph we have the points:

(-2, -5)

y-intercept (0, 3) → <em>b = 3</em>

Calculate the slope:

m=\dfrac{3-(-5)}{0-(-2)}=\dfrac{8}{2}=4

Put the value of the slope and the y-intercept to the equation of a line:

y=4x+3
