Lindsay used two points, (x 1, y 1) and (x 2, y 2), to find the equation of the line, y = mx + b, that passes through the points. First, she used the definition of slope and determined that the value of m is StartFraction y 2 minus y 1 Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction. Given this information, which expression must represent the value of b?

Apsychology student wishes to investigate differences in political opinions between business majors and political science majors at her college. she randomly selects 100 students from the 260 business majors and 100 students from the 180 political science majors. does this sampling plan result in a simple random sample? why or why not? no, because each group of 200 students in the sample does not have the same chance of being selected. yes, because each group of 200 students in the sample has the same chance of being selected. no, because each individual student does not have an equal chance of being selected. yes, because each individual student has the same chance of being selected.

Ethan is proving that the slope between any two points on a straight line is the same. he has already proved that triangles 1 and 2 are similar. drag statements and reasons to complete the proof.
