The power 0 only affects the x. x^0 = 1
-2 * 1 = -2
25
Here everything inside the brackets is affected by the 0.
(11abx)^0 = 1 There is nothing left over.

(xy)^0 = 1
(pq)^0 = 1
1 - 1 = 0
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
The population proportion have the following distribution
And we can solve the problem using the z score on this case given by:

We are interested on this probability:

And we can use the z score formula, and we got this:


And we can find this probability like this:

The confidence interval would be (10.44, 12.16). This means that if we take repeated samples, the true mean lies in 90% of these intervals.
To find the confidence interval, we use:

We first find the z-value associated with this. To do this:
Convert 90% to a decimal: 90% = 90/100 = 0.9
Subtract from 1: 1-0.9 = 0.1
Divide by 2: 0.1/2 = 0.05
Subtract from 1: 1-0.05 = 0.95
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is directly between two z-scores, 1.64 and 1.65; we will use 1.645:
Answer:
A. The stepwise selection procedure uses Adjusted R-square as the "best" model criterion.
Step-by-step explanation:
Stepwise regression is a model which uses variables in step by step manner. The procedure involves removal or inclusion of independent variables one by one. It adds the most significant independent variable and removes the less significant independent variable. Usually stepwise selection uses R-square or Mallows Cp for picking the best fit.
