Answer: Choice D.  15 - (-18)

This results in 15 - (-18) = 15 + 18 = 33.

So from -18 to 15 on a number line is 33 spaces.

We can also say

|-18 - 15| = |-33| = 33

The use of absolute value is to ensure the distance is never negative.

A political pollster conducted a study to determine political party loyalty. To do so, he selected a random sample of 100 regist
Reika [66]

Answer: (a)

P - Value = 0.0981 is high, this indicates stronger evidence that we should fail to reject the null hypothesis: H0: pD = pR (There is no significant difference between the proportion of Democrats who plan to vote for the Democratic candidate in the upcoming election and the proportion of Republicans who plan to vote for the Republican candidate in the upcoming election). P - Value = 0.0981 is the probability of obtaining results at least as extreme as the observed results of the Hypothesis Test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct.

(b)

Since P - Value = 0.0981 is greater than \alpha = 0.05, the difference is not significant. Fail to reject null hypothesis.

(c)

Since in the Hypothesis Test, we have failed to reject null hypothesis, we could have made: Type II Error: Failure to reject a false null hypothesis. One potential consequence of this error is as follows:

Suppose in reality there is significant difference between the proportion of Democrats who plan to vote for the Democratic candidate in the upcoming election and the proportion of Republicans who plan to vote for the Republican candidate in the upcoming election. But the political pollster wrongly concludes that there is no significant difference between the proportion of Democrats who plan to vote for the Democratic candidate in the upcoming election and the proportion of Republicans who plan to vote for the Republican candidate in the upcoming election. Type II Error is committed in this situation. The consequence of this Type II Error is that the political pollstar will that the political parties are loyal and will not do any follow up work whereas in reality it is not so.

Dean put together first boxes for 5 of his neighbors. Each box cost $1.00 and contained a plant and a $3.00 pair of gardening gl
Scorpion4ik [409]
(5 Neighbors) x (($1.00 Box) + (? Plant) + ($3.00 Gloves)) = 42.50

5 x (1 + x + 3) = 42.50

Combine in parens.

5 x (4 + x) = 42.50

Distribute.

20 + 5x = 42.50

Subtract 20 from both sides.

5x = 22.50

Divide both sides by 5.

x = 4.50

Thats the cost of each plant.

Check.

5 x (1 + 4.50 + 3)

5 x 8.50 = 42.50

Pls helpppppp this is a math emergency!
netineya [11]

Answer:

19.4in

Step-by-step explanation:

1) formula for area of a triangle:

(b*h)/2=a

the area and height are already given so lets substitute them in the formula.

(b*23.8)/2=230.86

1) multiply by 2 on both sides

b*23.8=461.72

divide by 23.8 on both sides

b=19.4

the base is 19.4 in

hope this helps
