Inequalities and equations use similar steps to solve, but inequalities give a range of numbers that can represent the variable while an equation will give a direct answer.
Example:
4+5x=24
First you would subtract 4 or add the opposite of 4 from 24.
4+5x=24
+(-4) +(-4)
—————
5x=20
Then divide each side by 5 or multiply each side by the reciprocal of 5 to isolate the variable.
1/5*5x=20*1/5 (reciprocal)
X= 4
You would use the same steps in an inequality but end up with a different sign.
Answer:
$408.25
Step-by-step explanation:
9.50 times 40=380
9.50 times 1.5= 14.25
14.25 times 2=28.50
380+28.50=
$408.25
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
16 because 36 divided by 9 is 4 so you have to multiply the 4 x 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The point estimate is the mean, 47 days.
b. The margin of error is the critical value times the standard error.
At 31 degrees of freedom and 98% confidence, t = 2.453.
The margin of error is therefore:
MoE = 2.453 × 10.2 / √32
MoE = 4.42
c. The confidence interval is:
CI = 47 ± 4.42
CI = (42.58, 51.42)
d. We can conclude with 98% confidence that the true mean is between 42.58 days and 51.42 days.
e. We can reduce the margin of error by either increasing the sample size, or using a lower confidence level.
