Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is always positive, since it's the number's distance from zero.

Thus, the absolute value of -6 is 6.

Done !!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is a number's distance from 0, another way to think of it is that it makes any number positive, so |-6|, the absolute value of -6 would be 6.

What is the solution to the system of equations <br><br> 3x+2y=39<br> 5x-y=13

Vadim26 [7]

Hiya. I'm going to rewrite the second equation.

By subtracting 5x by both sides, I'll be able to have y by itself:

-y=-5x+13

I'm going to then divide both sides by -1 to get:

y=5x-13.

Then, I'm going to plug that equation into the first equation

3x+2(5x-13)=39

Factor:

3x+10x-26=39

Combine like terms:

13x=65

Divide both sides by 13 to get x by itself to get x=5

Plug this back into the equation of y=5x-13

y=5(5)-13 to get y=12

Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean using the appropriate distributions. a. A random sample of 50 peop

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 50

Mean = 27.7

Standard deviation = 6.12

We need to construct 95% confidence interval for the population.

so, z = 1.96

So, it becomes,

$\bar{x}\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=27.7\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{6.12}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=27.7 \pm 1.69\\\\=(27.7-1.69,27.7+1.69)\\\\=(26.01,29.39)$

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).
