How can Kendra determine if the function is actually linear? She can check to see if the rate of vertical increase equals the rate of horizontal increase between each pair of points.
She can check to see if the sum of each y-value and x-value in every ordered pair is the same.
She can check to see if the quotient of each y-value and x-value in every ordered pair is the same.
She can check to see if the rate of change between the first two ordered pairs is the same as the rate of change between the first and last ordered pairs.

Asample of 200 rom computer chips was selected on each of 30 consecutive days, and the number of nonconforming chips on each day was as follows: the data has been given so that it can be copied into r as a vector. non.conforming = c(10, 15, 21, 19, 34, 16, 5, 24, 8, 21, 32, 14, 14, 19, 18, 20, 12, 23, 10, 19, 20, 18, 13, 26, 33, 14, 12, 21, 12, 27) #construct a p chart by using the following code. you will need to enter your values for pbar, lcl and ucl. pbar = lcl = ucl = plot(non.conforming/200, ylim = c(0,.5)) abline(h = pbar, lty = 2) abline(h = lcl, lty = 3) abline(h = ucl, lty = 3)
