Answer:

y = (3/4)x

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  Find the slope of the line.  As we go from ( -8,-6) to (12,9), x increases by 20 and y increases by 15.  Thus, the slope, m, is m = rise / run = 15/20 = 3/4

2) Recognize that the y-intercept is zero (0) because this is direct variation; the line goes thru the origin.

3) write the equation of the line:  y = mx + b becomes y = (3/4)x

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-6})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{12}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{9-(-6)}{12-(-8)}\implies \cfrac{9+6}{12+8}\implies \cfrac{15}{20}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-6)=\cfrac{3}{4}[x-(-8)]\implies y+6=\cfrac{3}{4}(x+8) \\\\\\ y+6=\cfrac{3}{4}x+6\implies y=\cfrac{3}{4}x

The chi-square test assesses whether the _____ observed in a cross-tabulation diverge from those one would expect under the null
pantera1 [17]

Answer: Frequencies .

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics theory the chi-square test statistic is calculated by considering each cell and the expected frequency is subtracted from the observed frequency after that the difference is squared, and the total is divided by the expected frequency. This is highlight that the key focus of the chi-square test is the frequencies .

If an angle is obtuse, then it measures 128°

This is false (a 127° angle is obtuse, but it does not measure 128°)

Inverse
(negations of p and q)
If an angle does not measure 128°, then it is not obtuse

This is false (a 127° angle does not measure 128°, but it is obtuse)

_____________________________________________________________

Contrapositive (negations of p and q, then switch their places)

If an angle is not obtuse, it does not measure 128°

This is true (any 128° is obtuse; no exceptions)
