6/12 is equal to 6 over 12 or .5 or 1/2 when reduced

6/12 / 2 = 3/6
3/6 / 3 = 1/2
That is the lowest fraction possible.

Two piecewise functions are shown below. What is the value of

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what your problem here is.

you understand the inequality signs ?

anyway, to get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)

we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.

f(-2)

we look at the definition.

into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?

is -2 < -2 ? no.

is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.

so, we have to use

1/3 x³

for x = -2 that is

1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3

g(1)

again, we look at the definition.

into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?

is 1 > 2 ? no.

is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.

so we have to use

2×|x - 1| + 3

for x = 1 we get

2×0 + 3 = 3

6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16

3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9

and so in total we get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7

National statistics show that 23% of men smoke and 18.5% of women smoke. A random sample of 175 men indicated that 45 were smoke

NeTakaya

Answer:

98% C.I. = [-0.1270, 0.0994]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

p1= proportion of men smokers

p1= 45/175= 0.2571

p2= proportion of women smokers

p2= 42/155= 0.2709

1) Choose the significance level ∝= 0.02

2) The formula for confidence interval is

(p1^- p2^)- z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

and

(p1^- p2^) z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

3) The z value is 2.05

4) Calculations:

(p1^- p2^)- z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

Putting the values

= 0.2571-0.2709)(-2.05) sqrt ( 0.2571(1-0.2571)/175+ 0.2709(1-0.2709)/155)

=-0.1270 ( using calculator)

And

(p1^- p2^)z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

Putting the values

= 0.2571-0.2709)(2.05) sqrt ( 0.2571(1-0.2571)/175+ 0.2709(1-0.2709)/155)

=0.0994 ( using calculator)

and Putting ± 2.05 in the confidence interval formula we get limits (-0.1270, 0.0994)

What is the solution to y=2/5x-3 and x=-10

Vanyuwa [196]

y is -2/53

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given equation is y = 2/5x-3 and x = -10. Substitute value of x to find the solution.

⇒ y = 2/(5 × -10 - 3) = 2/-53 = -2/53
