Answer:

They are different because multiplying whole numbers: you get a whole number ex: 3 x 7 = 21

Multiplying decimals: you get a whole and part of a whole ex: 12.39 x 2.5 = 30.975

Answer:

Multiplying decimals is very much like multiplying whole numbers - the major difference is that after you have finished multiplying all the terms (while ignoring the decimal points), you have to add up how many decimal places there are in the factors, and put that many decimal places in the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.multiply by the number in the ones place

2.but a zero below in the ones place to holds its place

3.multiply the number in the tenths place

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all black adults who would welcome a white person into their families is (0.8222, 0.8978).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

323 blacks, 86% of blacks said that they would welcome a white person into their families. This means that $n = 323, p = 0.86$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.86 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.86*0.14}{323}} = 0.8222$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.86 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.86*0.14}{323}} = 0.8978$

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all black adults who would welcome a white person into their families is (0.8222, 0.8978).

How do you transpose a number

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Transposing a number is a type of error where two digits swap position in the sequence. An example would be to enter 13 instead of the desired 31. It could also be the error of dropping a needed zero as in writing 15 instead of the desired 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless by "number" you mean musical score. Then transposing is rewriting the score in a new key.
