Yup it is definently confsing 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x³y^-4)^-2 = 1/(4x⁶y^‐8) = y⁸/(4x⁶)
1/(8x⁵y^-7) = y⁷/(8x⁵)
4x^-9y⁴ = 4y⁴/x⁹
so, the whole expression is then
y⁸/(4x⁶) × y⁷/(8x⁵) × 4y⁴/x⁹
4y¹⁹/(32x²⁰) = y¹⁹/(8x²⁰)
so, D is the correct answer. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Between - groups variance
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we see that the college freshmen are assigned to one of the three given groups. This means that they are exposed to different experimental conditions and thus it means that the variation differs as a result of different experimental conditions between the groups.
Thus, these differences reflect between - group variance. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Slope
Step-by-step explanation:
In the regression equation y=a+bx, y is dependent variable and x is independent variable. It means that due to change in x the y changes respectively. The "a" is intercept of the model and it shows the value of y when x is zero. The "b" is the slope of the model and it depicts the change in y due to unit change in x. The positive value of b means that as the x increases y also increases and as the x decreases y also decreases. The negative value of b means that as the x decreases y increases and as the x increases the y decreases.The sign of b shows the type of relationship between independent and dependent variable.
