How to simplify it? ​

Answers

The answer is -1 because
First you have to make the denominators equal so
-2(e-3f) = 6f-2e so if you multiply -2 to the numerator and denominator the fraction has the same value.
Once the denominators are equal you can get rid of them so you are left with
-2+1= -1

∠ O corresponds to that of ⇒ ∠T, provided they are each right angles,

∠ P corresponds to ⇒ ∠S, knowing that they share common side with length of 25 km so that they match,

Answer:

1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

2/10 for n

2/10 for d

2/10 times 2/10 equals 4/100

which simplifies to

The required probability is [tex]\dfrac{1}{25}[/tex]. So, option A is correct.

Important information:

A box contains all the letters of the word UNDERSTAND.Probability:

The number of N's is 2 and the number of D's is 2.

Total number of letters is 10.

Probablity of getting 'N' in first place is [tex]\dfrac{2}{10}=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex].

The first letter is replaced.

Probablity of getting 'D' in second place is [tex]\dfrac{2}{10}=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex].

A program was created to randomly choose customers at a clothing store to receive a discount. The program claims 22% of the receipts will get a discount in the long run. The owner of the clothing store is skeptical and believes the program's calculations are incorrect. He selects a random sample and finds that 17% received the discount. The confidence interval is 0.17 ± 0.05 with all conditions for inference met.
Part A: Using the given confidence interval, is it statistically evident that the program is not working? Explain. (3 points)
Part B: Is it statistically evident from the confidence interval that the program creates the discount with a 0.22 probability? Explain. (2 points)
Part C: Another random sample of receipts is taken. This sample is five times the size of the original. Seventeen percent of the receipts in the second sample received the discount. What is the value of margin of error based on the second sample with the same confidence level as the original interval? (2 points)
Part D: Using the margin of error from the second sample in part C, is the program working as planned? Explain. (3 points)

Answers

There is 0.25 is in the range of (0.18, 0.26), there is no statistical evidence that the program is not working as intended.

There is statistical evidence that the program makes the discount with a 0.25 probability.

The new margin of error is 0.02.

There is not statistical evidence that the program is working as intended.

Given that,

The program claims 22% of the receipts will get a discount in the long run.  

He selects a random sample and finds that 17% received the discount. The confidence interval is 0.17 ± 0.05 with all conditions for inference met.

According to the question,

The confidence interval is 0.22 ± 0.04, this equals, (0.22 + .04), (0.22 - 0.04) or (0.18, 0.26).

The fact that 0.25 is in the range of (0.18, 0.26), there is no statistical evidence that the program is not working as intended.

As the established earlier, 0.25 is within the range of( 0.18, 0.26). This means that there is statistical evidence that the program makes the discount with a 0.25 probability.

By using the margin of error formula.

The margin of error formula is z times the square rout of p-hat times 1 minus p hat over n.

From this formula  the me is inversely proportional to the square rout of the sample size. Because this is the case, the new me value is determined by dividing the old me value by 2 because of the fact that the proportion of p is 22%.

This means that the new me is equal to 0.04/2, which equals 0.02, which means that the new margin of error is 0.02.

By using the new me that the new CI is (0.22 ± .02)

This also equals(0 .22 - .02) ,(0 .22 - 0.02) or (0.2, 0.24) Because 0.25 is not within the range of (0.2, 0.24),

There is not statistical evidence that the program is working as intended.

Is there a question?

use technology to determine an approximate solution to the system
y=-0.44x+12.6 and y=-7.21x-55.6. Explain the procedure.

Answers

Answer:

The approximate solution to both systems is y = 17.03256 & x = - 10.074

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we have 2 equations we can simply graph each of them simultaneously and find the answer.

First we are going to graph y = - 0.44x + 12.6

Now.. We are going to graph y = - 7.21x - 55.6

Now that we have graphed both of our functions we know that the locations where the two lines meet otherwise known as the intersect is the solution to the equation.

Now that we know coordinate of x at the intersection point of the two lines is: - 10.074, we can input this number in as a substitute for our x because x = - 10.074

Therefor to verify,

y = - 0.44(-10.074) + 12.6

y = 17.03256

and now we substitute y into the other equation and find for x...

17.03256 = - 7.21x - 55.6

x = - 10.074

Which of the following sets could be the sides of a right triangle?
{2,3, square root 13} {2,2,4}{1,3, square root 3}

Answers

Answer: 2, 3, square root 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

2^2 = 4

3^2 = 9

4 + 9 = 13

Square root of 13 is c

Answer:

2,3,[tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first choice:

2, 3, [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]

Pythagorean theorem states that for a right-triangle of sides a,b and c where c is the hypotenuse; a² + b² = c²

So the hypotunese has to be the longest side of all.

The longest side in this case is [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]

So, 2² + 3² must be equal to ([tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex])²

Let's check if its true ...

2² + 3² = ([tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex])²

4 + 9 = 13

13 = 13

Right! Sides 2, 3, [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] are sides of a right triangle.

There is no need to check the other sets.

Y Values

∑ = 40Mean = 8∑(Y - My)2 = SSy = 124

X and Y Combined

N = 5∑(X - Mx)(Y - My) = 52

R Calculation

r = ∑((X - My)(Y - Mx)) / √((SSx)(SSy))r = 52 / √((22.8)(124)) r = 0.978

The above means that the correlation coefficient is 0.978
