Answer:

-\frac{8}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{5}{-3} - \frac{4}{2} + \frac{1}{-3}

Required

Simpify

The very first step is to take LCM of the given expression

\frac{-10 -4 - 2}{6}

Perform arithmetic operations o the numerator

-\frac{16}{6}

Divide the numerator and denominator by 2

-\frac{16/2}{6/2}

-\frac{8}{3}

The expression can't be further simplified;

Hence, \frac{5}{-3} - \frac{4}{2} + \frac{1}{-3} = -\frac{8}{3}

Aramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet, as shown in the figure.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The ratio of Tan B is

\tan B= \dfrac{AC}{BC}=\dfrac{8}{15}

OR

\tan A= \dfrac{BC}{AC}=\dfrac{15}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC

angle C = 90°

AB = Ramp = 17 feet

BC =Horizontal distance = 15 feet

AC = Height from floor = 8 feet

To Find:

Ratio of Tan B = ?

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC By Tangent Identity we have

\tan B= \dfrac{\textrm{side opposite to angle B}}{\textrm{side adjacent to angle B}}

Substituting the given values we get

\tan B= \dfrac{AC}{BC}=\dfrac{8}{15}

OR

\tan A= \dfrac{BC}{AC}=\dfrac{15}{8}

The College Board SAT college entrance exam consists of three parts: math, writing and critical reading (The World Almanac 2012)
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have the math and writing SAT scores of twelve students.

There are two variables of interest X₁: Math SAT score of a student. and X₂: Writing the SAT score of a student.

These two variables aren't independent since both of them represent data corresponding to the same student, meaning, that the math and writing scores belong to the same students and not to two separate groups of students.

This is an example of paired samples, to make the statistical test you have to establish a third variable, this variable will be the difference between the other two:

Xd= X₁-X₂

Xd: "Difference between the Math and Writing SAT scores of a student.

This variable has a normal distribution Xd~N(μd;σd²)

a. Using a .05 level of significance and test for a difference between the population mean for the math scores and the population mean for the writing scores? Enter negative values as negative numbers. Round your answer to two decimal places.

The parameter of interest is μd is the population mean of the difference between the math and writing SAT scores of the students.

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μd=0

H₁: μd≠0

α: 0.05

The test statistic is a t-student for dependent samples and it's rejection region is two-tailed.

t= \frac{Xd[bar]-Mud}{Sd/\sqrt{n} } = \frac{25-0}{37.05/\sqrt{12} } = 2.33

What is the p-value? Round your answer to four decimal places.

The p-value for this test is: 0.0394

The p-value is less than the level of significance, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

b. What is the point estimate of the difference between the mean scores for the two tests?

The sample mean for the variable "difference" is X[bar]d

You can calculate the point estimate of the sample mean of the variable Xd using two ways.

1) You calculate all the differences between the pairs of scores, add them and divide them by the sample size

X[bar]d= ∑di/n

∑di= 300

n=12

X[bar]d= 300/12= 25

2) You can calculate the sample mean for each variable and then calculate the difference between the two sample means

X[bar]₁= ∑X₁/n

∑X₁= 6168

X[bar]₁= 6168/12= 514

X[bar]₂= ∑X₂/n

∑X₂= 5868

X[bar]₂= 5868/12= 489

X[bar]d= X[bar]₁-X[bar]₂ = 514 - 489= 25

What are the estimates of the population mean scores for the two tests?

Math test X[bar]₁= 514

Writing test X[bar]₂= 489

Which test reports the higher mean score?

The Math test reports a higher mean score.

I hope it helps!

What is the value of n in the equation –(2n + 4) + 6 = –9 + 4(2n + 1)?
agasfer [191]
<span>–(2n + 4) + 6 = –9 + 4(2n + 1)

-2n - 4 + 6 = - 9 + 4*2n + 4*1
</span>
<span>-2n - 4 + 6 = - 9 + 8n + 4   
 
Take all the n's to one side and numbers to the other side. Sign changes to + or - when equality sign is crossed to other side of equation.
</span>
<span>-2n - 8n  = - 9 + 4 + 4 -6   

-10n    =  -7

n =  -7/-10

n = 7/10  or 0.7

25 points ! Circle B is Internally tangent to circle A at point p. Likewise, circle C is internally tangent to circle D at point
Greeley [361]
All the given points are collinear, so we have ...
  AB +BC = AC
  BC +CS +SD = BD
The problem statement tells us
  BD = AC
  BC +CS +SD = AB +BC . . . . . substituting for BD and AC
  BC +CS +2 = 4 +BC . . . . . . . . substituting given lengths
  CS = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (2+BC)

CS is the radius of Circle C, so its diameter is twice that: 4. The radius of Circle D is the diameter of Circle C plus SD, so is 4 +2 = 6. The diameter of Circle D is twice that: 12.

The diameter of Circle C is 4.
The diameter of Circle D is 12.
