Fernando evaluated the expression below. StartFraction 5 (9 minus 5) over 2 EndFraction + (negative 2) (negative 5) + (negative

3) squared = StartFraction 5 (4) over 2 EndFraction minus 10 + 9 = StartFraction 20 over 2 EndFraction minus 10 + 9 = 10 minus 10 + 9 = 9. What was Fernando's error?

Answer:

Fernando incorrectly found the product of –2 and –5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fernando evaluated the numerator of the fraction incorrectly.

Fernando simplified StartFraction 20 over 2 EndFraction incorrectly.

Fernando incorrectly found the product of –2 and –5.

Fernando evaluated (negative 3) squared incorrectly.

Fernando's calculation

5(9-5) / 2 + (-2)(-5) + (-3)^2

= 5(4) / 2 - 10 + 9

= 20/2 - 10 + 9

= 10 - 10 + 9

= 9

Correct calculation

5(9-5) / 2 + (-2)(-5) + (-3)^2

= 5(4) / 2 + (10) + 9

= 20/2 + 10 + 9

= 10 + 10 + 9

= 29

Therefore,

Fernando's error was multiplying (-2)(-5) to be equal to -10 instead of 10

Fernando incorrectly found the product of –2 and –5.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

A) The probability is 0.95 that the percent of adults living in the United States who are satisfied with their health care plans is between 63.6% and 68.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polling agency reported that 66 percent of adults living in the United States were satisfied with their health care plans. The estimate was taken from a random sample of 1,542 adults living in the United States, and the 95 percent confidence interval for the population proportion was calculated as (0.636, 0.684).

This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of adults living in the United States who were satisfied with their health care plans is between 0.636 and 0.684.

So the correct answer is:

A) The probability is 0.95 that the percent of adults living in the United States who are satisfied with their health care plans is between 63.6% and 68.4%.

Write an exponential function in the form y<br> and (3,72).<br> ab" that goes through points (0,9)
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

y=9 ( {2}^{x} )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the exponential function be

y = a {b}^{x}

We substitute (0,9) to get:

9 = a {b}^{0}

9 = a(1)

a = 9

The equation now becomes:

y = 9 {b}^{x}

We substitute (3,72) to get:

72 =9  {b}^{3}

8={b}^{3}  \\  {2}^{3}  =  {b}^{3}

b = 2

The equation is therefore

y=9 ( {2}^{x} )

Two equal groups of seedlings, and equal in height, were selected for an experiment. One group of seedlings was fed Fertilizer A
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Null Hypothesis: H_0: \mu_A =\mu _B or \mu_A -\mu _B=0

Alternate Hypothesis: H_1: \mu_A >\mu _B or \mu_A -\mu _B>0

Here to test Fertilizer A height is greater than Fertilizer B

Two Sample T Test:

t=\frac{X_1-X_2}{\sqrt{S_p^2(1/n_1+1/n_2)}}

Where S_p^2=\frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2}

S_p^2=\frac{(14)0.25^2+(12)0.2^2}{15+13-2}= 0.0521154

t=\frac{12.92-12.63}{\sqrt{0.0521154(1/15+1/13)}}= 3.3524

P value for Test Statistic of P(3.3524,26) = 0.0012

df = n1+n2-2 = 26

Critical value of P : t_{0.025,26}=2.05553

We can conclude that Test statistic is significant. Sufficient evidence to prove that we can Reject Null hypothesis and can say Fertilizer A is greater than Fertilizer B.

The equation r = 6t gives the number of albums released, r, by a record label over time in years, t. If you graph this relations
GalinKa [24]
R = 6t.....subbing in (8,48).....t = 8 and r = 48
48 = 6(8)
48 = 48 (correct)

r = 6t...subbing in (13,78)...t = 13 and r = 78
78 = 6(13)
78 = 78 (correct)

so u have 2 sets of points on this line and they are (8,48) and (13,78)
