Explanation:

<u>Linear trend</u>

A linear trend is one that is best approximated by a straight line. Sometimes we use a straight-line approximation, even when it may not be a very good fit, because we are only interested in the sign of the slope, or its approximate magnitude. The parameters of a linear trend are about the easiest to calculate (though it doesn't matter much if an appropriate tool is used).

__

<u>Non-linear trend</u>

A non-linear trend is one that is best approximated by a curve other than a straight line. Trig functions (sine, cosine), exponential functions, quadratic functions are often used. Non-linear trends are not restricted to these kinds of functions.

Y varies directly as x and inversely as the square of z. y equals 10 when x equals 36 and z equals 6. Find y when x equals 2 and
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

y =  \frac{kz}{x}  \\ 10 =  \frac{6k}{36}  \\ \frac{6k}{6}  = \frac{360}{6} \\ k= 60 \\  y =  \frac{4(60)}{2}  \\ y =  \frac{240}{2}  \\ y = 120

If this is right, then please make it the brainliest.

How do you solve 3 1/2- 2 2/5
Veseljchak [2.6K]
You would first have to find common denominators for the fractions. In this case it would be 10. So your new equation would be 3 5/10 - 2 4/10. Once you do this you can then subtract and solve getting the answer of 1 1/10
