Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 8 + 3x > 5x - 4

2x + 3x - 8 > 5x - 4

5x - 8 > 5x - 4

-5x +8 > -5x +8

----------------------

0x > 4

This is no solution, as there is no 'x' value.

(0x just means there isn't anything left, I put that in order to show there wasn't anything.)

The base of a cube is parallel to the horizon. If the cube is cut by a plane to form a cross section, under what circumstance wo

Keith_Richards [23]

This question has this set of answer choices:

a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others

b) when the plane passes through a pair of vertices that do not share a common face

c) when the plane is perpendicular to the base and intersects two adjacent vertical faces

d) when the plane makes an acute angle to the base and intersects three vertical faces

e) not enough information to answer the question

The right answer is the first choice: a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others

You can see a picture of this case in the figure attached: as you can see the cross section (in pink) is a triangle.

In a survey of 2065 adults in a certain country conducted during a period of economic uncertainty, 63 % thought that wages paid

LenKa [72]

Answer:

a) D.The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.

b) D.The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.

c) A.The interpretation is reasonable.

d) C.The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) We are 95 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low. Is the interpretation reasonable?

D.The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.

The sample proportion alone will not give us any confidence in estimating the true proportion of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low.

We need a 95% confidence interval to claim that the true proportion is within this interval. In this case, as the margin of error is 4%, the 95% CI is 59% and 67%.

(b) We are 91 % to 99 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low. Is the interpretation reasonable?

D.The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.

The confidence is set at a fixed value and from that value the confidence interval is estimated. It still uses the sample proportion instead of the confidence interval to estimate the true proportion.

(c) We are 95 % confident the proportion of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low was between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

A.The interpretation is reasonable.

It uses the right sample data and interpret correctly the meaning of the confidence interval.

(d) In 95 % of samples of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty, the proportion who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low is between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

C.The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

This confidence interval is an estimation about the parameter of the population. It doesn't give information to estimate the sampling distribution, as it only has information of one specific sample.

Q and R are independent events. P(Q) = 0.4; P(Q AND R) = 0.08. Find P(R).

algol [13]

Because Q and R are independent, you have

$\mathbb P(Q\cap R)=\mathbb P(Q)\times\mathbb P(R)$
$0.08=0.4\times\mathbb P(R)$
$\implies \mathbb P(R)=0.2$

Find the simplified ratio of 300ml in 5 minutes

andriy [413]

300ml in 5 min can be written as a fraction 300ml/5min or 300/5 ml per min. 300/5 is the same as 60/1

So 300ml / 5min = 60ml/1min
