When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.

9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less


When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.

-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .

We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.

If its a negative number then yes the opposite will be greater because it will be a positive number

For example the opposite of -2 is +2 so therefore the opposite is greater

7. What are the solutions of the equation? x2 = 11x − 24
mote1985 [20]
Assuming you typed this correctly, and how you wanted it, then the answer(s) would be x=3, or x=8. Both answers are correct. If it were multiple choice, then the answer would look something like: X=3 or 8.
If you meant 2x, then the answer would be x=8/3. This is a fraction

Quadrilateral DEFT has vertices D(2, 7), E(-4, 4), F(5, -6), and T(11, -3). What is the best name for quadrilateral DEFT?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of DE = (4-7) / (-4 - 2) = 1/2

slope of FT = (-3 - -6) / (11-5) = 1/2

DE // FT

slope of EF = (-6 - 4) / (5 - -4) = - 10/9

slope of DT = (-3 - 7) / (11 - 2) = - 10/9

EF // DT

Hayden had 2 and 1/2 gallons of water in his watering can. The seed packet said to use 1/4 of a gallon for peppers and 5/8 of a
Flauer [41]

Answer:

7/8 of a gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

First find a common denominator for each of the values, in this case eighths. Next, add the total water used for the tomatoes and peppers (you'll get 7/8 gallons). Then, convert the 2 and a half gallons to eighths, getting 20/8 of a gallon. Next, subtract the 7/8 from the 20/8; getting 13/8. Since you need to find the amount of water used for the lettuce, subtract the last value from 3/4 gallons (or 6/8)

A report on consumer financial literacy summarized data from a representative sample of 1,664 adult Americans. Based on data fro
daser333 [38]

Answer:

a. The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is (0.54, 0.588). This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is between these two bounds.

b. Because this confidence interval is entirely above 0.5, the interval is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.

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}.

Sample of 1,664 adult Americans, 939 people in the sample would have given themselves a grade of A or B in personal finance.

This means that n = 1664, \pi = \frac{939}{1664} = 0.5643

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}} = 0.5643 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5643*0.4357}{1644}} = 0.54

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5643 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5643*0.4357}{1644}} = 0.588

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is (0.54, 0.588). This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is between these two bounds.

(b) Is the confidence interval from part (a) consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B?

Yes, because the confidence interval is entirely above 0.5.

Because this confidence interval is entirely above 0.5, the interval is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.
