It would be greater than three because it is addition and when you add it is to increase not decrease. good luck!

Q 1.) Expand using identities: i. (a+2b)² ii. (5x-3y)² iii. (3a+4)(3a-4)(9a²+16)

Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

#1.

(a + 2b)²

Using identity (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y², we get:

= (a)² + (2b)² + 2 × (a) × (2b)

= a² + 4b² + 4ab

= a² + 4ab + 4b² Ans.

#2.

(5x - 3y)²

Using identity (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b², we get:

= (5x)² + (3y)² - 2 × (5x) × (3y)

= 25x² + 9y² - 30xy

= 25x² - 30xy + 9y² Ans.

#3.

(3a + 4)(3a - 4)(9a² + 16)

Using identity (x + y)(x - y) = x² - y², we get:

= [(3a)² - (4)²][9a² + 16]

= (9a² - 16)(9a² + 16)

= (9a²)² - (16)²

= 81a⁴ - 256 Ans.

Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: nequals=174174, x overbarxequals=30.930.9 hg, seq

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (29.780;32.020)

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=30.9$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=7.5 represent the sample standard deviation

n=174 represent the sample size

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=174-1=173$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,173)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=1.97$ , this value is similar to the obtained with the normal standard distribution since the sample size is large to approximate the t distribution with the normal distribution.
