The first step for simplifying the above fraction is to divide the terms with the same base by subtracting their exponents. 
\frac{15}{18y^{-3-(-7)} }
Remember that when there is a "-" sign in front of the parenthesis,, we need to change the sign of each term in the parenthesis. This changes the fraction to the following:
\frac{15}{18y^{-3+7 } }
Calculate the sum of the exponents.
\frac{15}{18 y^{4} }
Lastly,, reduce the fraction with 3 to find your final answer.
\frac{5}{6 y^{4} }
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Incomes in a certain town are strongly right-skewed with mean $36,000 and standard deviation $7000. a random sample of 75 househ
Svet_ta [14]
Since the sample is greater than 10, we can approximate this binomial problem with a normal distribution.

First, calculate the z-score:

z = (x - μ) / σ = (37000 - 36000) / 7000 = 0.143

The probability P(x > 37000$) = 1 - P(<span>x < 37000$), 
therefore we need to look up at a normal distribution table in order to find 
P(z < 0.143) = 0.55567 
And 
</span>P(x > 37000$) = 1 - <span>0.55567 = 0.44433

Hence, there is a 44.4% probability that </span><span>the sample mean is greater than $37,000.</span>

A simple random sample of size n=14 is obtained from a population with μ=64 and σ=19.
madam [21]

Answer:

a) A. The population must be normally distributed

b) P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967

c) P(X  ≥  65.6) = 0.3745

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The population is normally distributed having a mean (\mu_x) = 64  and a standard deviation (\sigma_x) = \frac{19}{\sqrt{14} }

b) P(X < 68.2)

First me need to calculate the z score (z). This is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu_x}{\sigma_x} but μ=64 and σ=19 and n=14,  \mu_x=\mu=64 and \sigma_x=\frac{ \sigma}{\sqrt{n} }=\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} }

Therefore: z=\frac{68.2-64}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} } }=0.83

From z table, P(X < 68.2) = P(z < 0.83) = 0.7967

P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967

c) P(X  ≥  65.6)

First me need to calculate the z score (z). This is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu_x}{\sigma_x}

Therefore: z=\frac{65.6-64}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} } }=0.32

From z table,  P(X  ≥  65.6) =  P(z  ≥  0.32) = 1 -  P(z  <  0.32) = 1 - 0.6255 = 0.3745

P(X  ≥  65.6) = 0.3745

P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967
