Answer:

b. 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller the p-value, the stronger the evidence that you should reject the null hypothesis. In this case, this will mean rejecting that the proportions are not significantly different.

Usually, a p-value is considered to be statistically significant when p ≤ 0.05.

From the answer options provided, alternative b. 0.02 is the only one that represents the difference in proportions to be statistically significant (there is only a 2% chance that the proportions are not significantly different).

Therefore, the answer is b. 0.02

Jug A has 0.1 litres more than jug B. Jug C has 200 millilitres less than jug B. Jug D has ¼ of the amount that is in jug A. The
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

A = 0.8 litres

B = 0.7 litres

C = 0.5 litres

D = 0.2 litres

Step-by-step explanation

Here's what we know:

1. Jug A = B + .1 litres

2. Jug C = B - 200 (or 0.2 litres)

3. Jug D = .25 x A

4. Jug A + Jug B = 1.5 litres

In problem 1, we learned that Jug A has .1 litres more than Jug B and in problem 4, the two of them added together are 1.5 litres. To solve this we can combine the problems.  

B + .1 litres + B = 1.5 litres

2B + .1 = 1.5

Subtract .01 from each side and you have 2B = 1.4

Divide each side by 2 and you have B = 0.7 litres

Plug this info into problem 1 and you can solve for A. (0.7 + 0.1 = 0.8)

Plug this info into problem 2 and you can solve for C. (0.7 - 0.2 = 0.5)

Since you have A, you can use that info to solve problem 3 (0.25 x 0.8 = 0.2)

What is 4.3(v+2.5)=8.11+4v
True [87]

Answer:

-8.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by simplifying the parenthesis through multiplication. Parenthesis is a structure which signals multiplication happening.

4.3(v+2.5)=8.11+4v\\4.3v+10.75=8.11+4v

We now begin combining like terms across the equal sign by performing the inverse or doing the opposite. Move first the 8.11 by subtracting it from both sides.

4.3v+10.75-8.11=8.11-8.11+4v\\4.3v+2.64=4v

Now, move 4.3v across by subtracting it from both sides.

4.3v-4.3v+2.64=4v-4.3v

2.64=-0.3v

Finally, we divide both sides by the coefficient of v.

\frac{2.64}{-0.3} =\frac{-0.3v}{-0.3} \\-8.8=v

A student said that since –9 is less than 4, then |–9| is less than |4|. Is the student correct? Explain why or why not
Leno4ka [110]
The student is not correct.

Absolute value means distance from zero
|-9| = 9
|4| = 4

Since 9 is greater than 4,
|-9| is greater than |4|

In other words, -9 is further from zero then 4
