Answer: 95% confidence interval = 20,000 ± 2.12\times\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17} }

( 19228.736 , 20771.263 ) OR ( 19229 , 20771 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size(n) = 17

Sample mean = 20000

Sample standard deviation = 1,500

5% confidence

∴ \frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.025

Degree of freedom (d_{f}) = n-1 = 16

∵ Critical value at ( 0.025 , 16 ) = 2.12

∴ 95% confidence interval = mean ± Z_{c}\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Critical value  at 95% confidence interval = 20,000 ± 2.12\times\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17} }

( 19228.736 , 20771.263 ) OR ( 19229 , 20771 )

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and (0,-4)
Arte-miy333 [17]

y = mx + b

To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

You plug in the points into the equation.

m = \frac{-4 - (-4)}{0 - 2}

m = \frac{-4+4}{0-2} = \frac{0}{-2} =0

The slope is 0

y = 0x + b

Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:

y = b

To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.

-4 = b

Your equation is:

y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)

ss7ja [257]
Answer: 25%

Step by step explanation:
1. Turn it into a fraction (5/20)
2. Turn the faction into a decimal by dividing the numerator (5) by the denominator (20). (5÷20=0.25)
3. Multiply the decimal (0.25) by 100, to convert it into a percentage. (0.25×100=25%)

A rectangular billboard image is 5 ft wide and 4 ft high. If the available billboard space is 25 ft by 15 ft, what are the dimen
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

18¾ ft × 15 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the billboard are 25 ft by 15 ft.

The dimensions of the image are 5 ft by 4 ft  

Case 1.<em> Expand the length of the image to 25 ft. </em>

We have multiplied the length by five, so we must multiply the width by five.

w = 5 × 4 = 20 ft. That's too big. The image will overflow the billboard

by 5 ft.


<em>Case 2. </em><em>Expand the width of the image to 15 ft. </em>

We have multiplied the width by 15/4, so we must multiply the length by 15/4.

l = 15/4 × 5 = 75/4 = . That will fit, with 6¼ ft left over.

The expanded image will be 18¾ ft × 15 ft.

In the image below, the big rectangle represents the billboard, and the red rectangle represents the original image.

The pink rectangle represents the dilation of the original image to a width of 15 ft.
