Suppose a 95% confidence interval for the average amount of weight loss on a diet program for males is between 13.0 and 18.0 pou

nds. These results were based on a sample of 42 male participants who were deemed to be overweight at the start of the 4-month study. What is the margin of error for this study?

Answer:

The margin of error for this study is 2.5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is the subtraction of the mean by the lower end of the confidence interval, and this must be equal to the subtraction of the upper end to the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

M - 13 = 18 - M

2M = 31

M = 15.5

The mean is 15.5 pounds.

So the margin of error for this study is 15.5 - 13 = 18 - 15.5 = 2.5 pounds.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

24 brushes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

cost per brush= $19.90

Amount made =$477.60

hence the number of brushes sold is given as

Number of brushes= 477.60/19.90

Number of brushes= 477.60/19.90

Number of brushes= 24 brushes

Omg help me please like I just can't right now <br><br> 2x-6y= -12 <br> x+2y=14
steposvetlana [31]

here,

2x-6y= -12

2(x-3y)= -12

x-3y = -6...........eq1

x+2y=14............eq2

we can subtract the above two given equations

we get,

x - 3y =  - 6 \\ x + 2y = 14

___________

- 5y =  - 20

so,

y=4

now to find the value of x we have to substitute the value of y in any of the above two equations, I choose eq2

we get,

x + 2y = 14 \\ x + 2 \times 4 = 14 \\ x + 8 = 14 \\ x = 14 - 8 \\ x = 6

<h3>so,</h3><h3> x=6,y=4</h3>

Answer:

  WX = 33

  (x, y) = (2, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The hash marks tell you WX is a midline, so has the measure of the average of the two bases.

  WX = (PQ +SR)/2 = (27 +39)/2 = 66/2

  WX = 33

__

The hash marks also tell you ...

  PW = WS

  y +4x = 18 . . . . . . substitute the given expressions

and also

  QX = XR

  2y +x = 22 . . . . . substitute the given expressions

__

If you solve the first equation for y, you get ...

  y = 18 -4x

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  2(18-4x) +x = 22

  36 -7x = 22 . . . . . . . simplify

  14 = 7x . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x-22 to both sides

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

  y = 18 -4(2) = 10 . . . find y using the above relation

The values of x and y are 2 and 10, respectively.

__

My favorite "quick and dirty" way to solve a set of linear equations is using a graphing calculator. It works well for integer solutions.

Can someone please help me factorize this one:<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.01y%20%7B%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20-%20%20%5Cfrac
Scorpion4ik [409]

First let us convert 0.01 into fraction:

\frac{y^{2}}{100}  -\frac{1}{4}

Now we convert 100 and 4 into perfect squares as follows:

(\frac{y}{10})^{2}-(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Now we use the property of :

x^{2} -y^{2} =(x+y)(x-y)

(\frac{y}{10} +\frac{1}{2} ) (\frac{y}{10} -\frac{1}{2} )
