15. [4] insufficient information. only given SA
16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²
combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85
rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2-9
=(2x)^2 -3^2
=(2x+3) (2x-3)
Hope this helps you.
Answer:
The 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 is (-8.04, 0.84).
Step-by-step explanation:
The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for the difference between population means is:

The information provided is as follows:

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 98% confidence level is,

Compute the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 as follows:


Thus, the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 is (-8.04, 0.84).
Does this show answer like multiple choice
SimplifyingY + -9 = 4(x + -2)
Reorder the terms:-9 + Y = 4(x + -2)
Reorder the terms:-9 + Y = 4(-2 + x)-9 + Y = (-2 * 4 + x * 4)-9 + Y = (-8 + 4x)
Solving-9 + Y = -8 + 4x
Solving for variable 'Y'.
Move all terms containing Y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '9' to each side of the equation.-9 + 9 + Y = -8 + 9 + 4x
Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 00 + Y = -8 + 9 + 4xY = -8 + 9 + 4x
Combine like terms: -8 + 9 = 1Y = 1 + 4x
SimplifyingY = 1 + 4x
