Answer:
a = –0.4 and b = 0.15
Explanation:
<em>Shanti wrote the predicted values for a data set using the line of best fit y = 2.55x – 3.15. She computed two of the residual values. What are the values of a and b?</em>
<em />
Residual values are the difference between Given and predicted value. That is:
Residual Value = Given - Predicted
Taking the values of the table:
a = 4.1 - 4.5 = -0.4
a = -0.4
And b is:
b = 7.2 - 7.05 = 0.15
b = 0.15
That means right answer is:
<h3>a = –0.4 and b = 0.15</h3>
Answer:
Explanation: A novel is not intended to produce a single effect because of its greater length than a short story. A short story is intended, as Poe established elsewhere, to be read at a single sitting. A novel is typically divided into chapters, and sometimes even into "books" or "volumes" because it is not intended to be read at a single sitting.
<span>root - the basic part of a word
example: reCONSTRUCTion
prefix - an addition before the root of a word
example: REconstruction
suffix - an addition at the end of the root of a word
example: reconstructION
The root is what contributes to the basic meaning of a word - prefixes
and suffixes serve to narrow down the meaning - who, when, how, in what
tense
example: re - again
construct - to build
ion - the action of
So the word RECONSTRUCTION would mean "the action of building again."
Hope that helped! Good luck! :)
P.S. Although you didn't ask for it, the subject is the object in the sentence that is performing the predicate
example: The girl ran to the store.
girl - subject
ran - predicate
It doesn't really have much in common with roots, prefixes and suffixes, all which are similar in function </span>

There would be a subject there. and as the predicates describe the subjects this is the answer. Thanks.
