What is smaller-5or -17

2 answers:

5 0

Ok so immagine a number line

in the middle is zero
to the left ot zero is negative
to the right of zero is positivee
the farther to the right you are, the bigger you are
the farther to the left you are,the smaller you are

negative means like backwards
so -5 and -17
which would you go farther back?
-5 or -17?
5 steps back or 17 steps back
answer is 17 steps back or -17 steps

it goes farther to the left

answer is -17

-17 lol because it's a negative the "larger" the number is, the less it is on the scale between negatives and positives.

One of your peers claims that boys do better in math classes than girls. Together you run two independent simple random samples

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To test if boys are better in math classes than girls two random samples were taken:

Sample 1

X₁: score of a boy in calculus

n₁= 15

X[bar]₁= 82.3%

S₁= 5.6%

Sample 2

X₂: Score in the calculus of a girl

n₂= 12

X[bar]₂= 81.2%

S₂= 6.7%

To estimate per CI the difference between the mean percentage that boys obtained in calculus and the mean percentage that girls obtained in calculus, you need that both variables of interest come from normal populations.

To be able to use a pooled variance t-test you have to also assume that the population variances, although unknown, are equal.

Then you can calculate the interval as:

[(X[bar]_1-X[bar_2) ± $t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}$ * $Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} }$ ]

$Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{14*(5.6^2)+11*(6.7^2)}{15+12-2} }= 6.108= 6.11$

$t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{15+12-2;1-0.05}= t_{25;0.95}= 1.708$

[(82.3-81.2) ± 1.708* (6.11* $\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{12} }$ ]

[-2.94; 5.14]

Using a 90% confidence level you'd expect the interval [-2.94; 5.14] to contain the true value of the difference between the average percentage obtained in calculus by boys and the average percentage obtained in calculus by girls.

I hope this helps!

A regression equation is obtained for a collection of paired data. It is found that the total variation is 20.711, the explained

Deffense [45]

Answer: $R^{2}$ = 0.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Coefficient of determination is represented by $R^{2}$ . This tells us that how much of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by the independent variable.

It is the ratio of explained variation by the independent variables to the total variation in the dependent variable.

Hence,

Coefficient of determination = $\frac{Explained\ Variation}{Total\ Variation}$

= $\frac{18.592}{20.711}$

$R^{2}$ = 0.89

∴ 89% of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by the independent variables.

Can someone show me the steps?<br>10m - 2/5 = 9 3/5

nikklg [1K]

10m + -0.4 = 9.6
-0.4 + 10m = 9.6
-0.4 + 10m = 9.6
Solving for 'm'Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
-0.4 + 0.4 + 10m = 9.6 + 0.4
Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.00.0 + 10m = 9.6 + 0.410m = 9.6 + 0.4
Combine like terms: 9.6 + 0.4 = 1010m = 10
Divide each side by '10'.<span>m = 1</span>

Evaluate the function g(x) = -2x- + 3x - 5 for the input values -2, 0, and 3.

gladu [14]

Answer:

g(-2)=3

g(0)=-5

g(3)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

g(-2)= -2(-2)+ 3(-2) - 5

4-6-5

2-5

g(-2)=3

g(0)= -2(0) + 3 (0)-5

0+0-5

g(0)=-5

g(3)= -2(3) + 3(3)-5

-6+9-5

3-5

g(3)=2
