Answer link

h=1

Step-by-step explanation:

h(-1) = 3x(-1) - 2(-1)

-1h = -3 + 2

-1h = -1

h/-1 = -1/-1

h = 1

hope this helps u!

the answer is d

the answer is in the first quadrant, which make the y-int positive.

since the dots are going down, therefore the correlation is negative

i hope it is right.
