X - the number

2x+x-18=-30-x \\

4x=-12 \\
x=\frac{-12}{4} \\
x=-3

The number is -3.

You are interested in the relationship between leisure activities and mood. One group of participants watches at least 2 hours o
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The most appropriate statistical test to use to compare the mood scores from the different groups is independent sample t-test.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Independent Samples t-test examines the means of two independent groups to see if statistical evidence exists to show that the related population means differ significantly.

The Independent Samples t-test is also known as Independent t-test, Independent Two-sample t-test, and among others.

It should be note that only two (and only two) groups can be compared using the Independent Samples t-test. It is not possible to use it to make comparisons between more than two groups.

Therefore, the most appropriate statistical test to use to compare the mood scores from the different groups is independent sample t-test.

A life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475. The probability th
laila [671]

Answer:

The expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of a random variable, <em>X</em> is:

E(X)=x\cdot P(X)

It is provided that a life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475.

The probability that the male survives the year is, P(S) = 0.999172.

Then the probability that the male does not survives the year is:

P (S') = 1 - P (S)

        = 1 - 0.999172

P (S') = 0.000828

The amount the company owes the male if he survives is, S = $475.

The amount the company owes the male if he does not survives is,

S' = $475 - $100,000 = -$99525.

Compute the expected value for the insurance company as follows:

E(\text{Insurance Company})=S\cdot P(S)+S'\cdot P(S')

                                     =(475\times 0.999172)+(-99525\times 0.000828)\\=474.6067-82.4067\\=392.20

Thus, the expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.

A high school held an election for class president. Exactly 1,000 votes were cast and they were all for either Gillian or Clive.
lisov135 [29]

Answer: 60%

1000÷2=500

Clive: 500-100= 400

Gillian: 500+100= 600 (Because Gillian has 100 more votes than Clive)

\frac{600}{1000} \times 100\%  = 60\%

Reily adds 45.3 and 3.21.should his sum be greater than or less than 48?Tell how you know.
Eddi Din [679]


Greater than 48, because just taking whole numbers 45 + 3  = 48 already.

45.3 is greater than 45 and 3.21 is greater than 3
