Answer:

d) A matched-pairs t-test for a mean difference

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate test for the company's investigation is a matched-pairs t-test for a mean difference.

A matched-pairs t-test is a test that is used to test if compared datasets have significant mean difference.

In this case, the travel company wants to compare the cost for the month of January of the present year, and the cost for the month of January of the previous year for different hotels selected at random.

The travel company also takes the difference in cost of all samples.

How do you verify factoring is correct?
Ivahew [28]
Multiply the factors together. You should get the original expression.

For example, if we are to factor
2x^2 + 4x
we would factor as
2x(x + 2).
Check this by multiplying back in
2x*x + 2x*2 = 2x^2 + 4x
which is what we started with, so we know we are correct.

kramer

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A: 66/21

  E: 22/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The offered choices reduce to 3 1/7 or to 3. The best approximations of those given are the ones that reduce to 3 1/7.

  A: 66/21 = 22/7 = 3 1/7

  B: 60/20 = 3

  C: 21/7 = 3

  D: 45/15 = 3

  E: 22/7 = 3 1/7

___

<em>Comment on pi approximations</em>

The ratio 22/7 differs from π by about 0.04%. A better approximation is 355/113, which differs from π by about 0.000008%. The approximation 3.14 differs from π by about 0.05%.
