Answer:

5.46 kilograms or 6.6 kilograms  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that 2 5 in your question has two possible meaning:

  • 2/5 of  this weight is apples

Let divide 9.1 kilograms into 5 equal part

=> 1 equal part =  9.1 / 5 = 1.82 kilograms  

Because 2/5 of this weight is apples, so the weight of apples accounted for 2 equal parts

=> the weight of apples is: 2*1.82 kilograms  = 3.64 kilograms

=>  the weight of pears is: 9.1 kilograms - 3.64 kilograms = 5.46 kilograms

  • 2.5 kg of  this weight is apples

Given the total weight is 9.1 kilograms

=>  the weight of pears is: 9.1 kilograms - 2.5 kilograms = 6.6 kilograms

Write the equation that describes the line with slope = 1 and y-intercept= 5/2 in slope-intercept form.
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: y=x+5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

using the slope intercept formula, y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, you can substitute the two values to get y=x+5/2. Please note that the slope, m, is one so it's not shown.

Confidence intervals for the means provide an estimate for where the true mean lies.
stepladder [879]

It is true that the confidence intervals for the mean provide an estimate for where the true mean lies.

In statistics, a confidence interval denotes the likelihood that a population parameter will fall between a set of values for a given proportion of the time. A confidence interval depicts the likelihood that a parameter will fall between two values near the mean. Confidence intervals quantify the degree of uncertainty or certainty in a sampling procedure.

The mean is a basic mathematical average of two or more values. There are two sorts of means that may be calculated: the arithmetic mean and the geometric mean. A mean tells you the average of a bunch of values, which helps you contextualize each data point.
