Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the square whose sides is s inches long will be given by:
Area=length×width
Length=s inches
width=s inches
thus:
the area of the squares will be:
Area=s×s=s² sq. inches
Thus the correct answer is:
area=s² sq. in

Step-by-step explanation:
Sleep Deprivation
In a recent study, volunteers who had 8 hours of sleep were three times more likely to answer correctly on a math test than were sleep-deprived participants.
(a) Identify the sample used in the study.
(b) What is the sample's population?
(c) Which part of the study represents the descriptive branch of statitics?
(d) Make an inference based on the results of the study?
Solution
A. The samples used is the hours of sleep and math test scores of the volunteers
B. The samples population is hours of sleep and math test scores of people in general
C. The part of the study that represent the descriptive branch of statistics is "three times more likely"
D.Inference: To perform well in a math test, a person should get at least 8 hours of sleep the night before.
Answer: 
Remember: RISE/RUN (y/x). Lines that are increasing have a positive slope, and lines that are decreasing have a negative slope.
You can find the slope in two ways:
1. Useful if the line is graphed: count the units between 2 points on the line.
- Let's use the points (-1, 4) and (4, -4).
- (-1, 4) is 8 units higher than (4, -4) and 5 units to the left of (4, -4).
- Because the line is decreasing, the slope is negative.
- Therefore, the slope is .
2. Useful if the line is not graphed: find the difference between the y-coordinate values divided by the difference of the x-coordinate values.
- Let's use the points (-1, 4) and (4, -4).
- Therefore, the slope is .
Just add 12 to -7, -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
