I am not quite sure but I hope it helps!
A line passes through the points (1.4) and (2, 2). What is the equation of this line?

Answer:
y = - 2x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 2 )
m = =
= - 2 , then
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, 2 ) , then
2 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 4 = 6
y = - 2x + 6 ← equation of line

You reject the Null Hypothesis when you have a small P-Value. Here is an example! Also we never accept the null hypothesis, think of it like this if we bring someone to court you wouldn't say their innocent of a crime, you only know that if they do not get convicted of the crime they are not guilty in the eyes of the law. Same thing applies here, since there could be several answers that satisfy our assumptions made, we can not be certain that 1 of those assumptions is the REAL answer it's just AN answer.
