Answer:

it is 4cm long

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 6 by 2 to get 12, then subtract 12 from 20 and get 8. Then you divide 8 by 2 to get 4. If you want to check it, you can add 6+6+4+4 to get 20

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: the definition of a rectangle states that opposite sides of the rectangle are congruent. this means that there is 2 sides that measure 6cm. These two sides added together give us 12cm. By working backwards, we can subtract 12cm from the perimeter (20cm), this gives us 8cm. by diving that by 2 we can find the lenght of the missing sides, 4cm each.

OleMash [197]

Answer: d. There is no relationship between education level and smoking habits.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is the affirmation that two parameters or phenomena do not have a relation between them.

Here the parameters are smoking and having a bachelor's degree or higher education.

Then the null hypothesis says that those two things do not have any relation, this would imply that the probability of being a smoker does not depend on having a degree or not.

Then the correct option is d "There is no relationship between education level and smoking habits."

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,5) (6,8)

Ratling [72]

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{8}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{8}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{6}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{6+3}\implies \cfrac{3}{9}\implies \cfrac{1}{3}$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{5}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}) \\\\\\ y-5=\cfrac{1}{3}(x+3)\implies y-5=\cfrac{1}{3}x+1\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x+6$
