3, 15, 75, 375, and here's why:
Basically, it's asking you to take 3, and multiply it by five each time to get a pattern.

1: 3
2: 
3*5 = 15
3: 
15*5 = 75
4: 
75*5 = 375

Add these together: 
3 + 15 + 75 + 375 = 468

Your answer is "A)", 468.

We know the following about the numbers a, b and c:
labwork [276]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a + b)² = 9

(b + c)² = 25

(a + c)² = 81

Taking the square root:

a + b = ±3

b + c = ±5

a + c = ±9

By adding these three equations together and dividing both sides by 2, we get the value of a + b + c.

Possible combinations for a + b + c such that the sum is greater than or equal to 1 are:

a + b + c = (-3 + 5 + 9)/2 = 11/2

a + b + c = (3 − 5 + 9)/2 = 7/2

a + b + c = (3 + 5 + 9)/2 = 17/2

In a random sample of 80 teenagers, the average number of texts handled in a day is 50. The 96% confidence interval for the mean
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

a) \bar X =\frac{46+54}{2}=50

And the margin of error is given by:

ME= \frac{54-46}{2}= 4

The confidence level is 0.96 and the significance level is \alpha=1-0.96=0.04 and the value of \alpha/2 =0.02 and the margin of error is given by:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

We can calculate the critical value and we got:

z_{\alpha/2} = 2.05

And if we solve for the deviation like this:

\sigma = ME * \frac{\sqrt{n}}{z_{\alpha/2}}

And replacing we got:

\sigma =4 *\frac{\sqrt{80}}{2.05} =17.45

b) ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=2.05 *\frac{17.45}{\sqrt{160}}=2.828

And as we can see that the margin of error would be lower than the original value of 4, the margin of error would be reduced by a factor \sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

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".  

\bar X represent the sample mean  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)  

\sigma represent the population standard deviation  

n=80 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

Part a

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} (1)  

For this case we can calculate the mean like this:

\bar X =\frac{46+54}{2}=50

And the margin of error is given by:

ME= \frac{54-46}{2}= 4

The confidence level is 0.96 and the significance level is \alpha=1-0.96=0.04 and the value of \alpha/2 =0.02 and the margin of error is given by:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

We can calculate the critical value and we got:

z_{\alpha/2} = 2.05

And if we solve for the deviation like this:

\sigma = ME * \frac{\sqrt{n}}{z_{\alpha/2}}

And replacing we got:

\sigma =4 *\frac{\sqrt{80}}{2.05} =17.45

Part b

For this case is the sample size is doubled the margin of error would be:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=2.05 *\frac{17.45}{\sqrt{160}}=2.828

And as we can see that the margin of error would be lower than the original value of 4, the margin of error would be reduced by a factor \sqrt{2}

3/7 x 28/9 x 15/17 ... how do I use cancellation? my answer was 15/17 but thats not the right answer, can someone explain this a
Ne4ueva [31]
First you cancel 7 and 28, and 3 and 9, so that leaves you with 4/3 x 15/17, then you cancel 3 and 15 so you get 4x5/17 which should give you 20/17!

deff fn [24]

Answer:

161 ft squared

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x 5 x 2 = 80

8 x 7 = 56

5 x 5 = 25

80 + 56 + 25

56 + 25 =81

80 + 81 = 161
