The answer is b! hope that helps
Answer:
Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ---> the number of years since 2012
f(x) ---> is the total amount of salt ingested in grams
we have

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form
where
The slope is equal to

The y-intercept or initial value is equal to

The y-intercept is the value of the function f(x) when the value of x is equal to zero
In this context, the y-intercept is the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012
The exact value of the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012 is 3,554 grams (see the data in the table)
Compare the exact value with the y-intercept

therefore
3,548 grams Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012
Answer: A) 1260
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the number of combinations of n things taking r at a time is given by :-

Given : Total multiple-choice questions = 9
Total open-ended problems=6
If an examine must answer 6 of the multiple-choice questions and 4 of the open-ended problems ,
No. of ways to answer 6 multiple-choice questions
= 
No. of ways to answer 4 open-ended problems
= 
Then by using the Fundamental principal of counting the number of ways can the questions and problems be chosen = No. of ways to answer 6 multiple-choice questions x No. of ways to answer 4 open-ended problems
= 
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 1260
-1/4 is less then 1/2 because -1/4 is negative and 1/2 is positive and also -1/4 is 25% and 1/2 is 50%
