$2b^2+13b-7=0\\\\2b^2+14b-b-7=0\\\\2b(b+7)-1(b+7)=0\\\\(b+7)(2b-1)=0\iff b+7=0\ or\ 2b-1=0\\\\\boxed{b=-7\ or\ b=0.5}$

2b2 + 13b -7
b 7
2b -1

(b+7)(2b-1)

b=1/2 or b=-7

How do you make this equation 13+5y=6x into slope-intercept form?

Reil [10]

In slope-intercept form, the y variable is isolated.
so,
<span>13+5y=6x
Subtract 13 on both sides.
5y=6x-13
Divide by 5 on both sides.
y=6/5 x -13/5</span>

A 99% confidence interval for the difference between two proportions was estimated at 0.11, 0.39. Based on this, we can conclude

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

$\hat p_1 -\hat p_2 \pm z_{\alpha/2} SE$

And for this case the confidence interval is given by:

$0.11 \leq p_1 -p_2 \leq 0.39$

Since the confidenc einterval not contains the value 0 we can conclude that we have significant difference between the two population proportion of interest 1% of significance given. So then we can't conclude that the two proportions are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p1 and p2 the population proportions of interest and let $\hat p_1$ and $\hat p_2$ the estimators for the proportions we know that the confidence interval for the difference of proportions is given by this formula:

$\hat p_1 -\hat p_2 \pm z_{\alpha/2} SE$

And for this case the confidence interval is given by:

$0.11 \leq p_1 -p_2 \leq 0.39$

Since the confidence interval not contains the value 0 we can conclude that we have significant difference between the two population proportion of interest 1% of significance given. So then we can't conclude that the two proportions are equal
