Answer:

C) -1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

|a| + b

|-1.4| + -2.7

Absolute values are positive

1.4 -2.7

-1.3

a previous analysis of paper boxes showed that the standard deviation of the length is 9mm. What is the 98% confidence interval

il63 [147K]

We cannot calculate the confidence interval without the sample size. However, for the second question, the sample size needed would be 49.

The formula we use is

$n=(\frac{z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times \sigma}{E})^2$

To find the z-score:
Convert 98% to a decimal: 0.98
Subtract from 1: 1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide by 2: 0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1: 1-0.01 = 0.99

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is closest to a z-score of 2.33.

Using the z-score, our standard deviation (9) and our margin of error (3), we have:
$n=(\frac{2.33(9)}{3})^2=(6.99)^2=48.86\approx 49$

If 3 + 4 7 and 6 + 1 = 7, then 3 + 4 = 6 + 1a. Distributive property . Associative property Transitive property . Commutative pr

Ugo [173]

If 3+4 = 7 and 6+7 = 7 leads to 3+4 = 6+1, then you are using the transitive property. In general the property says that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.
