Answer: A) a number is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

A conditional statement is written as:

If P, then Q.

Where P is the hypothesis and Q the conclusion.

In this case, we have:

If a number is negative, then the number is less than zero.

then we have:

P = a number is negative.

Q = the number is less than zero.

Then the hypothesis will be "a number is negative"

The correct option is A.

A survey of 85 families showed that 36 owned at least one DVD player. Find the 99% confidence interval estimate of the true prop
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.424 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.286

0.424 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.562

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given:

X= 36 represent the families owned at least one DVD player

n= 85 represent the total number of families

\hat p=\frac{36}{85}= 0.424 represent the estimated proportion of families owned at least one DVD player

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.05. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-2.58, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.58

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

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

If we replace the values obtained we got:

0.424 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.286

0.424 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.562

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)

What is the y-intercept and slope <br> of the line
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis). This useful form of the line equation is sensibly named the "slope-intercept form".

Math 1125 – Unit 1 ~ Gunkelman Practice for Section 1.5 The Basics of Graphing Prep Skills The table represents the Seven Summit
marta [7]

According to the table, the highest mountain in Africa is Mt. Kilimanjaro with 19,340 feet in height. The highest mountain in Antarctica is Vinson Massif with 16,864 feet in height.

Then, we subtract

19,340-16,864=2,476<h2>The difference between the heights of the highest mountain in Africa and the highest mountain in Antarctica is 2,476 feet.</h2>
