-1/4 ÷ -3/8 Please Hurry

Mathematics
1 answer:
Yuki888 [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

2 /3 (decimal form ≅ 0.6666667 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Unary minus: -1 /4

= -1 /4

Unary minus: -3 /8

= -3 /8

Divide: the result of step No. 1 : the result of step No. 2 = -1 /4 : (-3 /8 ) =

-1 /4  x -8 /3  = -1 (-8)  divided by 4(3)  = 8 /12  = 4(2 ) divided by 4(3)  = 2 /3

1/7 divided by blank equals 14
kherson [118]

Answer:

1/98

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Translate statement into equation.

  • \frac{1}{7}/x = 14
  • \frac{1}{7x}=14

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 7x.

  • \frac{1}{7x} * 7x = 14 * 7x
  • 1 = 98x

Step 3: Divide both sides by 98.

  • \frac{1}{98} =\frac{98x}{98}
  • x = \frac{1}{98}

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

  • \frac{1}{7}/\frac{1}{98}
  • \frac{1}{7}*98
  • 14

Therefore, the answer is 1/98.

Explanation:

  -4h ≤ -14

in this context is a relation that would tell how many hours it would take for the temperature to be at or below -14 degrees.

Sue thinks that there is a difference in quality of life between rural and urban living. She collects information from obituarie
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Comparing the p value with the significance level given \alpha=0.02 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and a would be a significant difference in the true mean lifetime expectancy number between rural and urban living.

Step by step explanation:

Data given and notation

\bar X_{r}=72.3 represent the mean for rural

\bar X_{u}=81.2 represent the mean for urban

s_{r}=9.77 represent the sample standard deviation for rural

s_{u}=6.29 represent the sample standard deviation for urban

n_{r}=55 sample size for the group rural

n_{u}=88 sample size for the group urban

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

\alpha=0.02 significance level provided

Develop the null and alternative hypotheses for this study?

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the means for the two groups are different, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis:\mu_{u}=\mu_{r}

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_{u} \neq \mu_{r}

Since we don't know the population deviations for each group, for this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X_{u}-\bar X_{r}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{u}}{n_{u}}+\frac{s^2_{r}}{n_{r}}}} (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Determine the critical value(s).

Based on the significance level\alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2=0.01 we can find the critical values from the t distribution dith degrees of freedom df=n1+n2-2=55+88-2=141, we are looking for values that accumulates 0.01 of the area on each tail on the t distribution.

For this case the two values are t_{\alpha/2}=-2.35 and t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.35

Calculate the value of the test statistic for this hypothesis testing.

Since we have all the values we can replace in formula (1) like this:

t=\frac{81.2-72.3}{\sqrt{\frac{6.29^2}{88}+\frac{9.77^2}{55}}}}=6.02

What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

p_v =2*P(t_{141}>6.02)=1.43x10^{-8}

Based on the p-value, what is your conclusion?

Comparing the p value with the significance level given \alpha=0.02 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and a would be a significant difference in the true mean lifetime expectancy number between rural and urban living.
