Answer:
c) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The sum of two numbers is 14. The larger number minus three times the lesser number is -2</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
To solve this question, we need to write the statement mathematically;
Let the two numbers be x and y
"The sum of two numbers is 14" can be mathematically written as x+y = 14
and
"The larger number minus three times the lesser number is -2" can be mathematically written as x - 3y = -2
x + y = 14 ------------------(1)
x - 3y= -2 -------------------(2)
Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)
[x - x = 0 y - (-3y)=4y 14-(-2)=16]
4y = 16
To get the value of y divide both-side of the equation by 4
4y/4 = 16/4
y = 4
Substitute y=4 into equation (1)
x + y =14
x +4 =14
Subtract 4 from both-side of the equation
x + 4 -4 = 10]-4
x = 10
x=10 and y =4
Therefore the lesser number is 4

Answer:
D Numbers that can be written as fractions
Step-by-step explanation:
A <em>rational</em> number is one that can be written as a <em>ratio</em>: a fraction with integer numerator and denominator.
__
The term "decimal" as used here is sufficiently non-specific that we cannot seriously consider it to be part of a suitable answer. A terminating or repeating decimal will be a rational number. A non-terminating, non-repeating decimal will not be a rational number.
While integers and whole numbers are included in the set of rational numbers, by themselves, they do not constitute the best description of the set of rational numbers.
Answer:
p-value: 0.0367
Decision: Reject H₀
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Hypothesis to test:
H₀:ρ₁-ρ₂=0
H₁:ρ₁-ρ₂>0
The statistic to use to test the difference between two population proportions is the approximation of Z
Z=<u> (^ρ₁-^ρ₂)-(ρ₁-ρ₂) </u> ≈N(0;1)
√ (<u>^ρ₁(1-^ρ₁))/n₁)+(^ρ₂(1-^ρ₂)/n₂))</u>
Z=<u> (0.28-0.15)-0 </u>= 1.79
√ (<u>0.28(1-0.28)/200)+(0.15(1-0.15)/300)</u>
p-value
Remember: The p-value is defined as the probability corresponding to the calculated statistic if possible under the null hypothesis (i.e. the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the value of the statistic under the null hypothesis).
P(Z>1.79)= 0.0367
Conclusion:
Comparing the p-value against the significance level, you can decide to reject the null hypothesis.
I hope you have a SUPER day!
