D. think about it this way. the closer it is to decimal, the closer it is to a whole number which is the "biggest"
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 8 ; y = 5/3
![\dfrac{1}{4}[x(2y+3z)] =\dfrac{1}{4}[8*(2*\dfrac{5}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3})]\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}(8*(\dfrac{10}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3})]\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}(8*\dfrac{15}{3})\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}*8*5\\\\=2*5\\\\=10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Bx%282y%2B3z%29%5D%20%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5B8%2A%282%2A%5Cdfrac%7B5%7D%7B3%7D%2B%5Cdfrac%7B5%7D%7B3%7D%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%288%2A%28%5Cdfrac%7B10%7D%7B3%7D%2B%5Cdfrac%7B5%7D%7B3%7D%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%288%2A%5Cdfrac%7B15%7D%7B3%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%2A8%2A5%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D2%2A5%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D10)
Answer:
excuse me, but how do we answer this? This question is unanswerable without it being a question!

Answer:
0.001
Step-by-step explanation:
Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;
Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :
HA : p>0.5
In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.
To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.
Recall ;
Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null
Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.
When ever you have percentages, it should be helpful to bear in mind you can express them as multipliers. In this case, it will be helpful.
So, if we let:
a = test score
b = target score
then, using the information given:
a = 1.1b + 1
a = 1.15b - 3
and we get simultaneous equations.
'1.1' and '1.15' are the multipliers that I got using the percentages. Multiplying a value by 1.1 is the equivalent of increasing the value by 10%. If you multiplied it by 0.1 (which is the same as dividing by 10), you would get just 10% of the value.
Back to the simultaneous equations, we can just solve them now:
There are a number of ways to do this but I will use my preferred method:
Rearrange to express in terms of b:
a = 1.1b + 1
then b = (a - 1)/1.1
a = 1.15b - 3
then b = (a + 3)/1.15
Since they are both equal to b, they are of the same value so we can set them equal to each other and solve for a:
(a - 1)/1.1 = (a + 3)/1.15
1.15 * (a - 1) = 1.1 * (a + 3)
1.15a - 1.15 = 1.1a + 3.3
0.05a = 4.45
a = 89
