a^{-n} =  \frac{1}{ a^{n} }
<em>So,</em> 4-2( 4^{-2})=4-2  \frac{1}{ 4^{2} } = 4-2 \frac{1}{16} = 4- \frac{1}{8}
<em>We amplify 4 with 8 and we get:</em>
\frac{32-1}{8} =  \frac{31}{8}= 3,875

It 3x - 2 = 7, then 3x = 9<br> is an example of the ?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Addition Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

So we had:

3x-2=7

And then we got:

3x=9

We did this by adding 2 to both sides of the equation. When we added 2, the left side cancelled and the right side equated to 9:

(3x-2)+2=(7)+2\\3x=9

Since we added 2 to both sides, this is an example of the addition property of equality.

A national grocery store chain wants to test the difference in the average weight of turkeys sold in Detroit and the average wei
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

<em>Calculated value t = 1.3622 < 2.081 at 0.05 level of significance with 42 degrees of freedom</em>

<em>The null hypothesis is accepted . </em>

<em>Assume the population variances are approximately the same</em>

<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>

<u>Explanation</u>:-

Given data a random sample of 20 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Detroit yielded a sample mean of 17.53 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 3.2 pounds

<em>The first sample size  'n₁'= 20</em>

<em>mean of the first sample 'x₁⁻'= 17.53 pounds</em>

<em>standard deviation of first sample  S₁ = 3.2 pounds</em>

Given data a random sample of 24 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Charlotte yielded a sample mean of 14.89 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 2.7 pounds

<em>The second sample size  n₂ = 24</em>

<em>mean of the second sample  "x₂⁻"= 14.89 pounds</em>

<em>standard deviation of second sample  S₂ =  2.7 poun</em>ds

<u><em>Null hypothesis</em></u><u>:-</u><u><em>H₀</em></u><em>: The Population Variance are approximately same</em>

<u><em>Alternatively hypothesis</em></u><em>: H₁:The Population Variance are approximately same</em>

<em>Level of significance ∝ =0.05</em>

<em>Degrees of freedom ν = n₁ +n₂ -2 =20+24-2 = 42</em>

<em>Test statistic :-</em>

<em>    </em>t = \frac{x^{-} _{1} -  x_{2} }{\sqrt{S^2(\frac{1}{n_{1} } }+\frac{1}{n_{2} }  }

<em>    where         </em>S^{2}   = \frac{n_{1} S_{1} ^{2}+n_{2}S_{2} ^{2}   }{n_{1} +n_{2} -2}

                      S^{2} = \frac{20X(3.2)^2+24X(2.7)^2}{20+24-2}

<em>              substitute values and we get  S² =  40.988</em>

<em>     </em>t= \frac{17.53-14.89 }{\sqrt{40.988(\frac{1}{20} }+\frac{1}{24}  )}<em></em>

<em>  </em>   t =  1.3622

  Calculated value t = 1.3622

Tabulated value 't' =  2.081

Calculated value t = 1.3622 < 2.081 at 0.05 level of significance with 42 degrees of freedom

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

<em>The null hypothesis is accepted </em>

<em>Assume the population variances are approximately the same.</em>

What is equal to 6 3/5
sergij07 [2.7K]
What would be equal would be 6.60, because 100/5 is 20. So 3 times 20 is 60. Plus the six so 6+0.6 is 6.60.

Art [367]

green pepper, onion, tomato

= 2x, 5x, 9x

Number of cups = 96

therefore 2x + 5x + 9x = 96

16x=96

x= 96÷16 = 6

Onion = 5x

therefore answer = 6 x 5 = 30

C. 30 is the correct answer :)
