Answer:

He should move 2 units further to the right of 7

Step-by-step explanation:

April's temperature = 7°C

Prediction for May is 2ºC higher than April.

So, May's temperatue =  7°C+2ºC =9ºC

Ken's used the number line to solve the problem.

Step 1)Starting at 0, moving right to 7

Step 2)moving 2 units to the left.

He did error in step 2 because the temperature is positive and numbers on right of the - are positive

So, he should move 2 units further to the right of 7

So, He did error in step 2 .

Correct steps :

Step 1)Starting at 0, moving right to 7

Step 2)moving further 2 units to the right.

Answer: Ken Should have moved 9 units to the right because his prediction for May is 9°C. Moving to the left part of the number line would take Ken into negative degrees. 9°C is warmer than 7°C. Therefore, Ken should have moved 9 units to the right of the number line instead of 2 units to the left.

If 3 + root8 by 3-root8 + 3-root8 by 3+root8 = a+broot2 find a and b
s2008m [1.1K]

If \frac{3+\sqrt{8} }{3-\sqrt{8} } +\frac{3-\sqrt{8} }{3+\sqrt{8} }=a+b\sqrt{2}, the value of a and b is given as a = 34 and b = 0

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables or numbers.

\frac{3+\sqrt{8} }{3-\sqrt{8} } +\frac{3-\sqrt{8} }{3+\sqrt{8} }\\ \\\frac{9+6\sqrt{8}+8+9-6\sqrt{8}+8  }{(3-\sqrt{8} )(3+\sqrt{8} )} \\\\\frac{34}{9-8} =34+0\sqrt{2}

If \frac{3+\sqrt{8} }{3-\sqrt{8} } +\frac{3-\sqrt{8} }{3+\sqrt{8} }=a+b\sqrt{2}, the value of a and b is given as a = 34 and b = 0

Answer:

0.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnifying glass basically zooms into smaller objects. If the insect appears to be 2cm, then it is actually smaller than this. It cannot be 10 cm.

If the scale factor is 5, then this means that the insect is zoomed in 5 times through the magnifying glass. Use the following ratio:

\frac{2}{5}

This fraction can also be seen as division, so:

2÷5=0.4

The insect is actually 0.4 cm long.

(or 4 millimeters)

Answer:

Since the calculated value of z= -1.496 does not fall in the critical region z < -1.645 we conclude that the new program is effective. We fail to reject the null hypothesis .

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample proportion is p2= 7/27= 0.259

and q2= 0.74

The sample size = n= 27

The population proportion = p1= 0.4

q1= 0.6

We formulate the null and alternate hypotheses that the new program is effective

H0: p2> p1   vs  Ha: p2 ≤ p1

The test statistic is

z= p2- p1/√ p1q1/n

z= 0.259-0.4/ √0.4*0.6/27

z=  -0.141/0.09428

z= -1.496

The significance level ∝ is 0.05

The critical region for one tailed test is z ≤ ± 1.645

Since the calculated value of z= -1.496 does not fall in the critical region z < -1.645 we conclude that the new program is effective. We fail to reject the null hypothesis .
