Answer:
-1/4 or -0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Like terms are terms whose variables are the same.
We can only add them because if they does not have the same variable you do not actually know if the variables are equivalent and you will get the wrong answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ex: 4z,7z,108z,45z
Ex: 4w-2h+7a-2w
You can not add 4w and 7a because you do not know what the variables equal so you do not know the true number so add or subtract by.
The confidence interval is

. This means that we can be 99% confident that the mean number of books people read lies between 9.15 and 11.85.
To find the confidence interval, we first find the z-score associated with it:
Convert 99% to a decimal: 0.99
Subtract from 1: 1-0.99=0.01
Divide by 2: 0.01/2 = 0.005
Subtract from 1: 1-0.005 = 0.995
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is associated with a z-score between 2.57 and 2.58. Since both are equally far from this value we will use 2.575.
We calculate the margin of error using

This means that the confidence interval is

The lower limit is given by 10.5-1.35 = 9.15.
The upper limit is given by 10.5+1.35 = 11.85
