To get 2 to 5, you multiply 2 by 2.5. do the same to 2/3 to get your answer. 2/3 times 2.5 = 2/3 times 5/2 equals 10/6 or 5/3 cups of sugar (1 and 2/3 cups of sugar) i believe
Since the problem is 2x^2-5xy-y^3 we first have to plug in what the x and y stands for, once you do that your problem should look like this:
2(-3)^2- 5(-3)(-2)- (-2)^3
Now take the parentheses away and when you do that your signs change.
2x3^2-5x(-3)x(-2)-(-2)^3
do it again with -5x(-3)x(-2)
2x3^2-30-(-2)^3
now do this with (-2)^3
2x3^2-30-(-8)
Now evaluate the power
3^2 becomes 9
2x9-30-(-8)
then change -(-8) to a positive since two negatives make a positive
2x9-30+8
Now multiply the numbers 2x9
18-30+8
Then do 18-30 which equals -12 then add 8
Now you are left with your answer:
<u>-4</u>

Answer:
The appropriate null hypothesis is 
The appropriate alternative hypothesis is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of
. So

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.
Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:
