The answer is B. -6. First, you multiply everything inside the parenthesis by the 2 that’s on the outside. Now you have 2n + 10 = -2. Subtract the 10 from both sides. You then have 2n = -12. Divide the 2 from the n on both sides in order to isolate your variable. You are left with your answer, n = -6. Hope this helps. :)

Answer: -6

Step-by-step explanation: use the distributive property and distribute the two to the n and 5. that’ll leave you with 2n+10=-2. then you subtract 10 from both sides and get left with 2n=-12. and then to get the exponent by itself, you divide by two on both sides. and then you’re left with n=-6 :)

What is the average of -30 -15 -20 55

defon

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-30 + (-15) + (-20) + 55 = -10. Then you divide it by how many numbers there are (4). Which equals - 2.5. If this is wrong, then round up to -3.

A genetic experiment involving peas yielded one sample of offspring consisting of 420 green peas and 174 yellow peas. Use a 0.01

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) $z=\frac{0.293 -0.23}{\sqrt{\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{594}}}=3.649$

b) For this case we need to find a critical value that accumulates $\alpha/2$ of the area on each tail, we know that $\alpha=0.01$ , so then $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , using the normal standard table or excel we see that:

$z_{crit}= \pm 2.58$

Since the calculated value is higher than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=420+174=594 represent the random sample taken

X=174 represent the number of yellow peas

$\hat p=\frac{174}{594}=0.293$ estimated proportion of yellow peas

$p_o=0.23$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level

Confidence=99% or 0.99

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of yellow peas is 0.23:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.23$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.23$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.293 -0.23}{\sqrt{\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{594}}}=3.649$

Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z>3.649)=0.00026$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

b) Critical value

For this case we need to find a critical value that accumulates $\alpha/2$ of the area on each tail, we know that $\alpha=0.01$ , so then $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , using the normal standard table or excel we see that:

$z_{crit}= \pm 2.58$

Since the calculated value is higher than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

If a square has a perimeter of 40 yards, what is the length of one side of the square?

zhannawk [14.2K]

10 yards because a square has 4 sides and all four sides are equal and so 40 divided by 4 equals 10

Can someone help please ill give Brainlist

Maru [420]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is how much it goes up by with each new number, so you can see that each time it goes down by 1/3. This means that the common difference is -1/3.
