First convert 1/8 inch to millimeters.

25.4/8 = 3.175

Then find the difference.

3.175-3=0.175

I'm not 100% positive about this, but I'm pretty sure.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any more help by commenting or DMing me. If it helped, please rate, thank, and if it really helped, give brainliest. It helps me rank up. Thanks! :)

If one inch equals 25.4 millimeters, you would have to divide 25.4 by 1/8 which equals to 3.2 (3.175 before rounding). Subtract 3.2 from 25.4 = 22.2 millimeters

Answer:

x = negative 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x-11=6x+7

-2x-11+11=6x+7+11

-2x=6x+18

-2x-6x=6x+18-6x

A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 340 babies were born, a

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (0.8, 0.9).

b)Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence interval $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

In the study 340 babies were born, and 289 of them were girls. This means that $n = 340, \pi = \frac{289}{340} = 0.85$

Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born.

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{340}} = 0.85 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{400}} = 0.80$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{340}} = 0.85 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{400}} = 0.90$

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (0.8, 0.9).

Does the method appear to be effective?

b)Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5.

If f(x) = -2x + 7, find f(8)

anastassius [24]

Answer:

-9
