The equation of a line is y = mx + b
We know there is a b because the y intercept is not zero, so the first choice is wrong. We also know the last choice is wrong because this problem definitely has a slope (m).
The slope of the line of best fit seems to be closest to 3.25, meaning it goes up about that much for every one unit it goes to the right.
The second choice is correct.
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation:</u>
<u>Step 2: Subtract 5/6 from both sides:</u>
<u>Step 3: Multiply both sides by 15/2:</u>

Yes it is possible for a geometric sequence to not outgrow an arithmetic one, but only if the common ratio r is restricted by this inequality: 0 < r < 1
Consider the arithmetic sequence an = 9 + 2(n-1). We start at 9 and increment (or increase) by 2 each time. This goes on forever to generate the successive terms.
In the geometric sequence an = 4*(0.5)^(n-1), we start at 4 and multiply each term by 0.5, so the next term would be 2, then after that would be 1, etc. This sequence steadily gets closer to 0 but never actually gets there. We can say that this is a strictly decreasing sequence.
If your teacher insists that the geometric sequence must be strictly increasing, then at some point the geometric sequence will overtake the arithmetic one. This is due to the nature that exponential growth functions grow faster compared to linear functions with positive slope.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
D is not a function because it has repeated x values. If you do the vertical line test, it intersects the graph multiple times. Hence, it is not a function.
