(a) TRUE

(b) TRUE

(c)  FALSE

(d) TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

" The "opposite" of any number is also known as it's " additive inverse" i.e. for any number 'a' the additive inverse is 'a' ".

(a) TRUE

Since let us consider any negative number '-5' then it's opposite is '5' since (-5)+5=0

(b) TRUE

this could be seen clearly from the number line.

(c) FALSE

this statement is false since we can take example of zero.

the opposite of zero is 0 but 0×0≠1.

(d) TRUE

since 0-0=0.

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33

hey there : ) your answer would be a.
