Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083
Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.
2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5
So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.
The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.
Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?
If it’s the more complicated way:
0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted
1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted
Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.
Slope is 2 because it goes up by two and over by one
Answer: x=40° and y=140°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure, we know that x and 40 are vertical angles. Therefore, they are equal to each other.
x=40°
With the value of x, we know that x and y are supplementary angles. That means they are equal to 180°.
40+y=180 [subtract both sides by 40]
y=140°
Now we know x=40° and y=140°.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of part-time work per week for all college students is between 25.8 and 30.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
A confidence interval has the following format.
In which 
is the mean of the sample and M is the margin of error.
In this problem, we have that:
The 99% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of part-time work per week for all college students is between 25.8 and 30.2.
It’s going to be negative infinitely, infinitely.
