Answer:

-1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.25 - (0.25)

1. Put the negative sign (-) in the parentheses

-1.25 - 0.25

2. Subtract the two numbers

-1.25 - 0.25 = -1.5

Lucy subtracted the two numbers instead of seeing that the 0.25 has to be negative as well.

Multiply the first equation by -3.

-3(7x+5y=584)
Multiply the second equation by 5.
5(5x+3y=384)

Solve by elimination.

X=42

Substitute value of x into one of the original equations.

Natalka [10]

Using the t-distribution to build the 99% confidence interval, it is found that:

  • The margin of error is of 3.64.
  • The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • t is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 21 - 1 = 20 df, is t = 2.086.

The other parameters are given as follows:

\overline{x} = 23, s = 8, n = 21

The margin of error is given by:

M = t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{8}{\sqrt{21}} = 3.64

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

\overline{x} - M = 23 - 3.64 = 19.36

\overline{x} + M = 23 + 3.64 = 26.64

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).
