3(-4y)=6-4y
-12y=6-4y
-8y=6
y=-3/4
So the two expressions are equivalent, if and only if y = -3/4.
Here’s the correct answer and the way i got to it. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
(x - 8)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5x - 24
Consider the factors of - 24 which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
The factors are - 8 and + 3 , since
- 8 × + 3 = - 24 and - 8 + 3 = - 5
Use these factors to split the x- term
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
= (x - 8)(x + 3) ← in factored form
Answer:
2.083 < µ1 - µ2 < 5.917
Step-by-step explanation:
We will need to construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference of 2 means where the populations are normally distributed, and their variances are equal.
The calculations of the sample means and standard deviations are done for us.
Sample 1: Catalyst 1
n = 12, x = 85, s = 4
Sample 2: Catalyst 2
n = 10, x = 81, s = 5
See attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval...
