Ldentify the hypothesis of the statement If the slope of a line is positive, then the line is not horizontal.

A) the line is not vertical

B) the line is not horizontal

C) the slope of a line is positve

D) the slope of a line is negative

Hypothesis: The phrase following the "if" part of a conditional statement. So the answer would be c- The slope of a line is positive

So the answer is : C) the slope of a line is positive

Step-by-step explanation:

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
