Female:                                     Male:
60                                              35
96                                             109
26                                              31
n₁=no. of entries=3                    n₂=no. of entries=3
s₁=sample standard                   s₂=sample standard 
      deviation=35.005                       deviation=43.924
x₁=sample mean=60.666           x₂=sample mean=58.333

Here s and x are calculated from calculator.
Now,
for significance level
1-α=90%
1-α=0.9
α=0.1
α/2=0.05

As population variances are unknown for both Male and female so the best suitable formula is

    (x₁ - x₂) ± tα/2,v₁ * \sqrt{ \frac{s_1^2 }{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }
   ........1

where v(degree of fredom)=(s₁²/n₁+s₂²/n₂)² / ((s₁²/n₁)²/n₁-1)+(s₂²/n₂)²/n₂-1))
    by putting values 
           v=3.81026
From Statistics table,
      See the t table at α/2=0.05  and v=3.81026
use interpolation as v value is not in the table,
      3.81026-3/4-3 = x-3.182/2.776-3.182
                          x= 2.853
by putting values in eq. 1 we get
  
(60.666-58.333) ± (2.853)*\sqrt{ \frac{35.005^2 }{3} + \frac{43.924^2}{3} }      

  2.333 ± 92.516 is the correct answer.

Can someone tell me how to do this? with steps?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ AFB,

∠AFB + ∠ABF + ∠A = 180   {Angle sum property of triangle}

90 + 48 + ∠1 = 180

       138 + ∠1 = 180

                 ∠1 = 180 - 138

∠1 = 42°

FC // ED and FD is transversal

So, ∠CFD ≅∠EDF   {Alternate interior angles are congruent}

     ∠2 = 39°

In ΔFCD,

∠2 + ∠3 + ∠FCD = 180

39 + ∠3 + 90 = 180

         129 +∠3 = 180

                   ∠3 = 180- 129

∠3 = 51°

A point with a positive x-coordinate and a negative y-coordinate is reflected over the y-axis.
Luden [163]
The x-coordinate is negative, and the y-coordinate is negative.

This is because the y-axis is vertical, so reflecting across it means you will change the sign of the x-value, and the sign of the y-value will stay constant. Since we start off with a positive x and negative y, we will end up with a negative x and negative y.
