As you can see in the picture, all the points lie on the same line, so they are collinear. The line follows an equation with the general form of:

y = mx + b
where m and b are the constants

The b parameter is the y-intercept. This is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis. From the graph, b = 0. The other constant is the slope m. You can choose any two points, the answer would just be the same.

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Suppose point 1 is (2,1) and point 2 is (3,1.5).

m = (1.5 - 1)/(3 - 2) = 1/2 or 0.5

Therefore, the answer is either 0 or 0.5. From the choices, the answer would be letter C.

Suppose that the p-value was 0.0259. what is the appropriate conclusion to make if α = 0.05?

fiasKO [112]

<span>It is clear to see that 0.0259 is less than 0.05. A p-value that is less than the confidence level of alpha indicates that there is sufficient evidence from the data that the null hypothesis should be rejected in favor of an alternative hypothesis.</span>

What is the value of x in trapezoid ABCD

statuscvo [17]

So the trapezoid has 2 parallel sides making segments AD and BC transversals

Therefore making angle c and angle b add up to 180

(180-3x) + 3x + 180-9x +9x

180 +12x = 360

180= 12x
x= 15

Gabriel wants to paint the model. How

enyata [817]

Answer:

<h2>The area of the base is 144 square inches.</h2><h2>The area of each triangular face is 66 square inches.</h2><h2>Grabiel needs 408 square inches of paint.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete problem is attached.

Notice that the figure is a square pyramid, where its base dimensions are 12 inches by 12 inches, which represents an area of

$B=12 \times 12 = 144 \ in^{2}$
