Answer:

9.

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is an absolute value, anything within the absolute value becomes positive. Things outside the absolute values stay as they are.

|-12| - |-3| = 12 - 3 = 9.

Hope this helps!

The aquarium at Sea Critters Depot contains 140 fish. Eighty of these fish are green swordtails (44 female and 36 male) and 60 a
maxonik [38]

Given that:

Total number of fish = 140

Fish are green swordtails female = 44

Fish are green swordtails male = 36

Fish are orange swordtails female = 36

Fish are orange swordtails male = 24

Solution:

A. We have to find the probability that the selected fish is a green swordtail.

\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}

\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{80}{140}

\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{4}{7}

Therefore, the probability that the selected fish is a green swordtail is \dfrac{4}{7}.

B.  We have to find the probability that the selected fish is male.

\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male fish}}{\text{Total fish}}

\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{36+24}{140}

\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{60}{140}

\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{3}{7}

Therefore, the probability that the selected fish is a male, is \dfrac{3}{7}.

C. We have to find the probability that the selected fish is a male green swordtail.

\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}

\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{36}{140}

\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{9}{35}

Therefore, probability that the selected fish is a male green swordtail is \dfrac{9}{35}.

D.

We have to find the probability that the selected fish is either a male or a green swordtail.

\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male or green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}

\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{44+36+24}{140}

\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{96}{140}

\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{24}{35}

Therefore, the probability the selected fish is either a male or a green swordtail is \dfrac{24}{35}.

1. which angle is congruent to Angle 1?
Inessa [10]

<u>Part 1) which angle is congruent to Angle 1?</u>

we know that

When two lines are crossed by another line (which is called the Transversal), the angles in matching corners are called <u>corresponding angles</u>

m∠5=m∠1 ----------> by corresponding angles postulate

therefore

<u>the answer Part 1) is </u>

Angle 5

Part 2) Which can be used to directly prove that Angle 1 =~ Angle 8?

we know that

<u>Alternate exterior angles</u> are defined as two exterior angles on opposite sides of a transversal which lie on different parallel lines.

in this problem

m∠1=m∠8 -------> by alternate exterior angles theorem

therefore

<u>the answer part 2) is the option </u>

Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem

<u>Part 3) If m Angle 5 = 42 degrees, what is m Angle 4?</u>

we know that

<u> Alternate interior angles</u> are two interior angles which lie on different parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal

m∠4=m∠5 --------> by alternate interior angles theorem

so

m∠4=42\ degrees

therefore

<u>the answer Part 3) is</u>

42\ degrees

Which of the following is NOT true when testing a claim about a​ proportion? Choose the correct answer below. A. Both the tradit
morpeh [17]

Answer: C. A conclusion based on a confidence interval estimate will be the same as a conclusion based on a hypothesis test.

Explanation: The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion (P1) is significantly different from a hypothesized value (P0). This procedure calculates sample size and statistical power for testing a single proportion using either the exact test or other approximate z-tests.

To write a null hypothesis, first, start by asking a question. Rephrase that question in a form that assumes no relationship between the variables. In other words, assume a treatment has no effect. Write your hypothesis in a way that reflects this.

A null hypothesis is a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables. It is usually the hypothesis a researcher or experimenter will try to disprove or discredit. An alternative hypothesis is one that states there is a statistically significant relationship between two variables.

How many gallons of a 20% salt solution must be mixed with 4 gallons of a 30% salt solution to make a 25% salt solution?
densk [106]
Since 25% is smack in the middle between 20% and 30%, it will take equal volumes of ech to make a 25% solution.

Since 4 gallons of 30% solution was used, so 4 gallons of 20% solution will be needed.
