A subtraction problem can be turned in to an addition problem because of negative numbers. Take 5-2=3 for example. If you change 5-2 into an addition problem then you would but he addition sign and a negative sign on 2. This will then leave you with the problem looking like 5+ -2. If you add 5 and -2 you will still get three.

Among 320 randomly selected airline travelers, the mean number of hours spent travelling per year is 24 hours and the standard d

Ostrovityanka [42]

The margin of error of the random selection is 0.29

The given parameters are:

$n = 320$ --- the sample size

$\sigma = 2.9$ --- the standard deviation

$\bar x = 24$ --- the mean

$\alpha = 90\%$ --- the confidence level.

The margin of error (E) is calculated as follows:

$E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2}{n}}$

So, we have:

$E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{3.2^2}{320}}$

$E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{10.24}{320}}$

The z-value for 90% confidence level is 1.645.

Substitute 1.645 for z

$E = 1.645 \times \sqrt{\frac{10.24}{320}}$

$E = 1.645 \times \sqrt{0.032}$

Take square roots

$E = 1.645 \times 0.1789$

Multiply

$E = 0.2943$

Approximate

$E = 0.29$

Hence, the margin of error is 0.29

Which point is an x-intercept of the quadratic function

daser333 [38]

The x-intercept of f(x) = (x + 6)(x - 3)
f(x) = 0 → (x + 6)(x - 3) = 0 → x + 6 =0 or x - 3 =0
x = -6 or x = 3
Therefore the x-intercepts are: (-6; 0) and (3; 0)
Your answer is (-6; 0)

3. A prop for the theater club’s play is constructed as a cone topped with a half-sphere. What is the volume of the prop? Round

Mariana [72]

The volume of the prop is calculated to be 2,712.96 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The prop consists of a cone and a half-sphere on top. We will have to calculate the volumes of the cone and the half-sphere separately and then add them to obtain the total volume.

Step 2:

The volume of a cone is determined by multiplying $\frac{1}{3}$ with π, the square of the radius (r²) and height (h). Here we substitute π as 3.14. The radius is 9 inches and the height is 14 inches.

The volume of the cone : $V=\pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}$ = $3.14 \times 9^{2} \times \frac{14}{3}$ = 1,186.92 cubic inches.

Step 3:

The area of a half-sphere is half of a full sphere. The volume of a sphere is given by multiplying $\frac{4}{3}$ with π and the cube of the radius (r³).
