Cecily claims that the equation y = mx + b, where b is a real number, represents a function whose graph is a line. Which statement BEST
classifies this claim?

Cecily's claim is true only when b is zero.

Cecily's claim is true for all values of b.

Cecily's claim is not true for any value of b.

Cecily's claim is true only when b is not zero

Cecily's claim is true for all values of b.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cecily's claim is true for all values of b.

If she graphs y = mx, and then y = mx + b, and then y = mx + c, and so on, she will find that her graphs are all straight lines that are parallel to each other (as they will all have the same slope, m).

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
