Answer:

In 2184 different ways can the 1st-3rd pick be arranged.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the Total number of NBA teams does not make the play offs = 14

We need to find number of ways in which 3 teams randomly picked.

We use permutation to find the number of ways.

We know that number of ways of selecting r item from n different item is equal to ^nP_r\:\:=\:\:\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Here, r = 3 and n = 14

\implies^{14}P_3=\frac{14!}{(14-3)!}frac{14!}{11!}=frac{14\times13\times12\times11!}{11!}=14\times13\times12=2184

Therefore, In 2184 different ways can the 1st-3rd pick be arranged.

By how much does the dependent variable change in response to a change of 1 unit of the independent variable?
dalvyx [7]

Answer: C) 5

--------------

x = independent variable, y = dependent variable

Assuming this is a linear function, each increase of x by 2 leads to y going up by 10. So 10/2 = 5 is the unit increase each time x bumps up by 1.

-------------------

An alternative is to use the slope formula to get

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (25 - 15)/(4 - 2)

m = 10/2 <--- this expression shows up again

m = 5 <---- leading to the same answer as before

So we see that the slope formula is a more drawn out method to finding the answer.
