Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

to determine if the points are collinear, determine the rate of change(slope) between (-2, -9) and (0, -4) and then the rate of change between (0, -4) and (3,6) and rate of change between (-2, -9) and (3, 6). if the rates are equivalent then the points are all collinear

between (-2, -9) and (0, -4):

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

  =(-4-(-9))/(0-(-2))

  =5/2

between (0, -4) and (3,6):

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

  =(6-(-4))/(3-0)

=10/3

because 5/2 does not equal 10/3 the rates of change are not equal and the points are not collinear, do not need to consider slope between (-2, -9) and (3, 6)

List P contains m numbers; list Q contains n numbers. If the two lists are combined to produce list R, containing m + n numbers,
Anarel [89]

Answer: YES

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write out the expressions

P= {m}

Q= {n}

R= {m+n}

If 2m=n then we can say;

P= {½n} Q= {n} & R= {³/²n}

It is obvious that the smaller number in Q is greater than the largest number in P

We can make some assumptions.

Let n= (x,y,z)

Consequently,

P={½x,½y,½z} Q={x,y,z} and R= {1.5x,1.5y,1.5z}

Therefore the median will be the middle element,

Median of P= ½y

Median of Q = y

Median of R = 1.5y

And 1.5y>1.5y

Then we can agree that the median of R is greater than the median of both P and Q

Sergio039 [100]
The area of the red piece of paper is A= 4(2*4)= 4*8= 32 in^2.
The area of the blue piece of paper is A= 3*7=21 in^2. You subtract 21 from 32 and the difference is 11. So 11in^2 is visible.
