You do 4/5+1/5=4/5 and then you do 5/5-4/5=1/5 of a meter is needed.

Answer:
Approximately 5 intervals will not capture the true mean hour of sleep freshman get at night.
Step-by-step explanation:
The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean implies that there is a (1 - α) probability that the true value of the mean is included in the interval.
Or, the (1 - α)% confidence interval for the mean implies that there is (1 - α)% confidence or certainty that the true mean value is contained in the interval.
And, if 100 such (1 - α)% confidence interval for the mean are computed then 95 of these 100 interval will consist of the true mean value.
In this case it is provided that 100 researchers estimate the population mean hour of sleep freshman get at night, and each one construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean.
Then approximately 95 of these 100 confidence intervals will capture the true mean hour of sleep freshman get at night. And approximately 5 intervals will not capture the true mean hour of sleep freshman get at night.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When learning about commutative and associative properties, we learn that ...
a + b = b + a . . . . . addition is commutative
ab = ba . . . . . . . . . multiplication is commutative
But we also know that ...
a - b ≠ b - a . . . . . . subtraction is not commutative
a/b ≠ b/a . . . . . . . . division is not commutative
__
We also learn that ...
a + (b+c) = (a+b) +c . . . . addition is associative
a(bc) = (ab)c . . . . . multiplication is associative
And of course, ...
a - (b -c) ≠ (a -b) -c . . . . subtraction is not associative
a/(b/c) ≠ (a/b)/c . . . . . . . division is not associative
_____
However, you can use associative and commutative properties in problems involving subtraction and division if you write the expression properly:
a - (b - c) = a +(-(b -c)) = a +((-b) +c) = (a +(-b)) +c . . . . keeping the sign with the value makes it an addition problem, so the associative property can apply
(a/b)/c = (a(1/b))(1/c) = a(1/b·1/c) = writing the division as multiplication by a reciprocal makes it so the associative property can apply
