Simplify the expression -2b - 6 + 3b - 2

1 answer:

8 0

Hello!

To do this we need to combine like terms, meaning combine the terms that have the same variables.

b is one variable that can be combined:

-2b - 6 + 3b - 2
b - 6 - 2

Now, combine the digits:

b - 8

Hope this helped!

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the concentration in whitefish found in Yellowknife Bay is (0.2698 mg/kg, 0.3702 mg/kg).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 8 - 1 = 7

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 7 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975$ . So we have T = 2.3246
