differences in findings
• construct and interpret graphs to identify linear and nonlinear
relationships

1. Analyze and interpret data to determine similarities and differences in findings

  Data collection is the systematic recording of information; data analysis involves working to uncover patterns and trends in datasets; data interpretation involves explaining those patterns and trends.

2. Construct and interpret graphs to identify linear and nonlinear relationships

  Graphs of Nonlinear Relationships. ... A nonlinear relationship between two variables is one for which the slope of the curve showing the relationship changes as the value of one of the variables changes. A nonlinear curve is a curve whose slope changes as the value of one of the variables changes.

  The graph of a linear equation forms a straight line, whereas the graph for a non-linear relationship is curved. ... A non-linear relationship reflects that each unit change in the x variable will not always bring about the same change in the y variable.

  Believe it or not, we can determine whether a function is linear or nonlinear simply by looking at its graph! Because the rate at which y is changing with respect to x is constant in a linear function, the graph of a linear function is a line, as the name implies. For example, observe the graph of Sophie's function.

  Nonlinearity is a term used in statistics to describe a situation where there is not a straight-line or direct relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable. In a nonlinear relationship, changes in the output do not change in direct proportion to changes in any of the inputs.

Explanation:

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.

i think the answer is terrae but not 100 percent sure. ▓▬▬ §
