A student working on a report about mathematicians decides to find the 98% confidence interval for the difference in mean age at
balandron [24]

Answer:

The entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

A student working on a report about mathematicians decides to find the 98% confidence interval for the difference in mean age at the time of math discovery for Greek mathematicians versus Egyptian mathematicians. The student finds the ages at the time of math discovery for members of both groups, which include all Greek and Egyptian mathematicians, and uses a calculator to determine the 98% confidence interval based on the t distribution, <u>the entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used.</u> There is no as such explanation of this scenario, its just the answer mentioned above.

How do I solve this systems of three equations problem?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

You have to eliminate one of the variables when the equations are added.

A) x + 2y + z = 10

B) 2x -y +3z = -5

C) 2x -3y -5z = 27

We mulutiply A) by 2 then add it to B and C

A) 2x + 4y + 2z = 20 and the sum =

6x = 42  Luckily, the "y" and "z" variables cancel out and we find:

x = 7  

Then we use x =7 in calcucating equation A) and B)

A) 2y + z = 3

B) -y + 3z = -19

THEN solve for y and z by eliminating variables.

Please help!!
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:(a)

1.65p+1.36j=118.17 and p+j=79

We can say p=79-j and sub this value in first equation

1.65(79-j)+1.36j=118.17

130.35-1.65j+1.36j=118.17

-0.29=-12.18

j=42, p=79-j, p=79-42=37

(b)

1.65(37)=61.05 and 1.36(42)=57.12

Sanchez class earned more selling pies.

(c)

61.05-57.12=3.93

So Sanchez class made $3.93 more than Kelley class.
