Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be x and y, then
x - y = 48 . . . (1)
x + y = 60 . . . (2)
(1) - (2) => -2y = -12 => y = -12/-2 = 6
From (1), x - 6 = 48 => x = 48 + 6 = 54
Therefore, the two numbers are 54 and 6.
40. 24+26=50 41. I don't understand that one either what grade are you in?
Answer: point estimate = 3.88
Margin of error = 0.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval is written in the form,
(Point estimate - margin of error, Point estimate + margin of error)
The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean. Let m represent the margin of error. Since the confidence interval is given as (3.25 , 4.51), it means that
x - m = 3.25
x + m = 4.51
Adding both equations, it becomes
2x = 7.76
x = 7.76/2
x = 3.88
Substituting x = 3.88 into x + m = 4.51, it becomes
3.88 + m = 4.51
m = 4.51 - 3.88
m = 0.63
The box of 100 would be the better deal, considering buying 2 boxes of 50 would turn out to be $47.00
