Answer:

Exact form:b=-\frac{8}{11}\\Decimal form: b=-0.72727272727272727272

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(b+3)-12=2b-16+5b

-4b-12-12=2b+5b

-4b-24=7b-16

-4b=7b+8

By what percent will a fraction change if its numerator is decreased by 50% and its denominator is decreased by 25%?
N76 [4]

Answer:

The fractional change is \frac{1}{3} % .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The original fraction = \dfrac{x}{y}

Where numerator = x

Denominator = y

According to question

The numerator decreased by 50%

Let The new numerator = x' = x - 50% of x

I,e x' = x ( 1 - \frac{50}{100})

Or, x' = x (\frac{100-50}{100})

Or, x' = \frac{50}{100} x

or, x' = \dfrac{x}{2}              .........A

Again

The new denominator = y' = y - 25% of y

i.e y' = y (1 - \frac{25}{100})

Or, y' = y (\frac{100-25}{100})

Or, y' = y (\frac{75}{100})

Or, y' = \frac{3 y}{4}              ............B

So, The new fraction = \frac{x'}{y'} = \frac{\frac{x}{2}}{\frac{3 y}{4}}

Or, \frac{x'}{y'} = \frac{2 x}{3 y}

So, The fractional change = \frac{1-\frac{2}{3} }{1} × 100

Or, The fractional change = \frac{1}{3}× 100

Hence, The fractional change is \frac{1}{3} % . Answer

A certain test preparation course is designed to help students improve their scores on the LSAT exam. A mock exam is given at th
Alborosie

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the average net change is (8.596, 12.904).

Critical value t=1.638.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sample:

M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{4}(12+7+13+11)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{43}{4}\\\\\\M=10.75\\\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2\\\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{3}((12-10.75)^2+(7-10.75)^2+(13-10.75)^2+(11-10.75)^2)\\\\\\s=\dfrac{20.75}{3}\\\\\\s=6.92\\\\\\

We have to calculate a 80% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=10.75.

The sample size is N=4.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{2.63}{\sqrt{4}}=\dfrac{2.63}{2}=1.315

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=4-1=3

The t-value for a 80% confidence interval and 3 degrees of freedom is t=1.638.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

MOE=t\cdot s_M=1.638 \cdot 1.315=2.154

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 10.75-2.154=8.596\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 10.75+2.154=12.904

The 80% confidence interval for the average net change is (8.596, 12.904).
