Answer:

----------

5w^11

Step-by-step explanation:

8/20 reduces to 2/5, and (w^(-2)) / w^9 becomes 1 / w^11.

Overall, #20 reduces to:

----------

5w^11

Recall the rule of exponents:

w^a

----------- = w^(a-b)

w^b

and note that

w^(-2)

------------ = w^(-2-9) = w^(-11) (same as above)

w^9

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-3,5) and (2, 10) in slope-intercept form.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

$y=x+8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of straight line can be calculated as

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Here $(x_1, y_1)=(-3, 5) \ and \ (x_2, y_2) = (2, 10)$

$m =\frac{10-5}{2-(-3)}\\m=1$

Equation of straight line in slope intercept form is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-5=(x+3)$

$y=x+8$

In a completely randomized experimental design, three brands of paper towels were tested for their ability to absorb water. Equa

arlik [135]

Answer:

Yes. At this significance level, there is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The significance level is 0.05.

The data is:

Brand X: 91, 100, 88, 89

Brand Y: 99, 96, 94, 99

Brand Z: 83, 88, 89, 76

We have to check if there is a significant difference between the absorbency rating of each brand.

Null hypothesis: all means are equal

$H_0:\mu_x=\mu_y=\mu_z$

Alternative hypothesis: the means are not equal

$H_a: \mu_x\neq\mu_y\neq\mu_z$

We have to apply a one-way ANOVA

We start by calculating the standard deviation for each brand:

$s_x^2=30,\,\,s_y^2=6,\,\,s_z^2=35.33$

Then, we calculate the mean standard error (MSE):

$MSE=(\sum s_i^2)/a=(30+6+35.33)/3=71.33/3=23.78$

Now, we calculate the mean square between (MSB), but we previously have to know the sample means and the mean of the sample means:

$M_x=92,\,\,M_y=97,\,\,M_z=84\\\\M=(92+97+84)/3=91$

The MSB is then:

$s^2=\dfrac{\sum(M_i-M)^2}{N-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{(92-91)^2+(97-91)^2+(84-91)^2}{3-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{1+36+49}{2}=\dfrac{86}{2}=43\\\\\\\\MSB=ns^2=4*43=172$

Now we calculate the F statistic as:

$F=MSB/MSE=172/23.78=7.23$

The degrees of freedom of the numerator are:

$dfn=a-1=3-1=2$

The degrees of freedom of the denominator are:

$dfd=N-a=3*4-3=12-3=9$

The P-value of F=7.23, dfn=2 and dfd=9 is:

$P-value=P(F>7.23)=0.01342$

As the P-value (0.013) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected.

There is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.
