Let 'c' represent the number of points Carlos scored.
2c - 7 = 31
c = 19 points
9 - (a - 7)
Note that - = -1
First, distribute - 1 to all terms within the parenthesis
-1(a - 7) = -a + 7
9 - a + 7
Combine like terms
9 + 7 = 16
-a + 16, or A. 16 - a is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
a) ![[-0.134,0.034]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B-0.134%2C0.034%5D)
b) We are uncertain
c) It will change significantly
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Since the variances are unknown, we use the t-test with 95% confidence interval, that is the significance level = 1-0.05 = 0.025.
Since we assume that the variances are equal, we use the pooled variance given as
,
where
.
The mean difference
.
The confidence interval is

![= -0.05\pm 1.995 \times 0.042 = -0.05 \pm 0.084 = [-0.134,0.034]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20-0.05%5Cpm%201.995%20%5Ctimes%200.042%20%3D%20-0.05%20%5Cpm%200.084%20%3D%20%5B-0.134%2C0.034%5D)
b) With 95% confidence, we can say that it is possible that the gaskets from shift 2 are, on average, wider than the gaskets from shift 1, because the mean difference extends to the negative interval or that the gaskets from shift 1 are wider, because the confidence interval extends to the positive interval.
c) Increasing the sample sizes results in a smaller margin of error, which gives us a narrower confidence interval, thus giving us a good idea of what the true mean difference is.
