Frank solved an equation and got the result x = x. Sarah solved the same equation and got 12 = 12. Frank says that one of them i

s incorrect because you cannot get different results for the same equation. What would you say to Frank? If both results are indeed correct, explain how this happened.

Frank is incorrect. 
They could have solved the same equations and got what seems like different answers, however both the answers of x = x, and 12 = 12 mean that the equation has an infinite amount of solutions, or that the answer is all real numbers.

This could have happened because Sarah and Frank may have approached the same equation in different ways, meaning that one simplified or solved the equation with a different, but still correct, strategy.

Hope this helps! :)

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698

7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Weight before diet 180 125 240 150  

Weight after diet 170 130 215 152

We define the random variable D = before-after and we can calculate the inidividual values:

D: 10, -5, 25, -2

And we can calculate the mean with this formula:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And the deviation with:

s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i- \bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And after replace we got:

\bar D= 7, s_d = 13.638

And the confidence interval for this case would be given by:

\bar D \pm t_{\alpha/2} \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n-1= 4-1=3

For the 95% of confidence the value for the significance is \alpha=0.05 and the critical value would be t_{\alpha/2}= 3.182. And replacing we got:

7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698

7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698
