8 0

Solve:

$[x+9]$ - there is nothing to simplify

======================================

Evaluate:

$5(7-9)-2$

= $35 -45-2$

= $-10-2$

= $-12$

or

$5(7-9)-2$

= $35 -45-2$

= $35-47$

= $-12$
------------------------------------------
So, -12 is the answer.

A triangle has a base of 3 2/5 inches and an area of 5 1/10 square inches. Find the height of the triangle. Show your reasoning

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area if a traiangle =1/2 × base × height

5 1/10 = 1/2 ×3 2/5 ×h

Change mixed fractions to improper fractions

51/10= 1/2 ×17/5 ×h

51/10 = 17/10×h

Divide 51/10 by the coefficient of h

51/10÷17/5 = h

51/10 ×5/17 = h

3/2 = h

h =1 1/2 inchea

The height of the triangle 1 1/2 inches

The area of a circle is 8π square units. What is the radius of the circle in simplest radical form?

Sav [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is :A= π r² r : the radius

A= 8π square units

so : π r² = 8π

r² = 8

r = √8 = √(4 × 2) =√4×√2

r = 2√2 units

We have to calculate the test statistic for a test for the diference between proportions.

The sample 1 (year 1995), of size n1=4276 has a proportion of p1=0.384.

$p_1=X_1/n_1=1642/4276=0.384$

The sample 2 (year 2010), of size n2=3908 has a proportion of p2=0.3621.

$p_2=X_2/n_2=1415/3908=0.3621$

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.0219.

$p_d=p_1-p_2=0.384-0.3621=0.0219$

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

$p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{1642+1415}{4276+3908}=\dfrac{3057}{8184}=0.3735$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.3735*0.6265}{4276}+\dfrac{0.3735*0.6265}{3908}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.00005+0.00006}=\sqrt{0.00011}=0.0107$
