A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.

From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.

Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.

Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.

Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.

Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.

-2(2)+3(3)=?

-4+9=?

5

Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.

a random sample size of 175 is drawn from a large population. The population standard deviation is 13.6. The sample mean is 87.3
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The size of the population mean would be provided as:

mean +/- std/sqrt(sample size)

<=>

87.3 +/- 13.6/sqrt(175)

<=>

87.3 +/- 1.03

=> Option B is correct.

Hope this helps!
