Answer:
9/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(B) 0.057
Step-by-step explanation:
The 95% confidence interval is (0.028, 0.086). The formula for the confidence interval is μ ± e where μ is the mean and e is the margin of error.
Therefore the confidence interval is (μ - e , μ + e).
That is μ - e = 0.028 and μ + e = 0.086
To get the point estimate which is the mean, we sum the two proportions and divide it by two.
Therefore point estimate (μ) = (0.028 + 0.086) / 2 = 0.057
when the two books were published
The larger number is (-7+14)/2 = 3.5.
The smaller number is (-7-14)/2 = -10.5.

The two equations a+b=-7, a-b=14 can be solved to get these results. It is genrally convenient to solve them by adding one to the other, or subtracting one from the other.
