Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a help site, so I'll explain each property and see if you can match them yourself.

Associative property of addition, you can add 3 or more different numbers any which way, the sum will be the same.

Commutative Property of Addition - same as the associative property but with 2 numbers.

Identity Property of Multiplication - Any number multiplied by one is itself

Multiplicative Property of Zero: x * 0 = 0

Associative Property of Multiplication - Same as that of addition, yet with multiplication.

Distributive Property: Factoring Out.

EX: (12 x 15) = 3(4 x 5)

You can set them equal to each other so -3x+4=4x-10 and then you add 3x and 10 on both sides and get7x=14 and then divided both sides by 7 and get x = 2 and check by plugging in and you get -2 for y on both so solution is x=2

A company surveyed 2400 men where 1248 of the men identified themselves as the primary grocery shopper in their household. a) E

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

b) The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

c) $\alpha =1-0.98=0.02$

Step-by-step explanation:

If np' and n(1-p') are higher than 5, a confidence interval for the proportion is calculated as:

$p'-z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }\leq p\leq p'+z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }$

Where p' is the proportion of the sample, n is the size of the sample, p is the proportion of the population and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the z-value that let a probability of $\alpha/2$ on the right tail.

Then, a 98% confidence interval for the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper can be calculated replacing p' by 0.52, n by 2400, $\alpha$ by 0.02 and $z_{\alpha/2}$ by 2.33

Where p' and $\alpha$ are calculated as:

$p' = \frac{1248}{2400}=0.52\\\alpha =1-0.98=0.02$

So, replacing the values we get:

$0.52-2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\leq p\leq 0.52+2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\\0.52-0.0238\leq p\leq 0.52+0.0238\\0.4962\leq p\leq 0.5438$

With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

Finally, the level of significance is the probability to reject the null hypothesis given that the null hypothesis is true. It is also the complement of the level of confidence. So, if we create a 98% confidence interval, the level of confidence $1-\alpha$ is equal to 98%

It means the the level of significance $\alpha$ is:

$\alpha =1-0.98=0.02$

-37= n/23 what is n?

Vlada [557]

-37 = n
 23

to solve for n, undo what is happening to the n. if the n is being divided by 23 to get -37, then multiply both sides by 23 to figure out what n is.

-37 * 23 = n * 23
 23

-851 = n

Introduction

Wrestling is a wonderful activity with many advantages for the student-athlete. It is a sport that is highly

competitive, exciting and satisfying. It is a sport that provides for individual and team competition. It is -

and should be - fun. Unfortunately, the practice of losing weight by not eating, restricting fluid intake and

over-exercising reduces the sport's fun. This information is presented to help clear up misconceptions

regarding wrestling and weight loss. I also hope to give some guidance to those who desire to manage

their weight properly in preparation for and during the wrestling season.

History and Stigma

For too long, the wrestling community has unthinkingly accepted the myth that to be a good wrestler, you

must cut weight. The generally accepted thinking is something like this: if your natural weight is 135

pounds, you may be a good wrestler at 135 pounds. But if you wrestle at 130 pounds, you'll be a better

wrestler. And if you can make it down to 125, you'll be a state champion. No facts support that widely held

view, yet wrestlers and parents subscribe to that faulty reasoning. Looking further back, many remember

the days that losing excessive weight was a specific practice and expectation among wrestlers. It was

supposed to teach sacrifice, commitment, and the idea of “No Pain, No Gain.”

Regardless of the current attitude of the majority of the wrestling community, the stigma that an unhealthy

loss of weight is a requirement of wrestling among outside observers sticks. The Virginia High School

League has followed national guidelines to establish rules that encourage healthy weight management

among wrestlers.

Current Regulations

Preseason weight certification is accomplished with three steps. The first is determining each wrestler’s

body fat percentage using skin fold calipers. Next, the wrestler completes a hydration test, to insure

against a dehydrated weight measurement, and the wrestler weighs in. The third step is the calculation of

the wrestler’s minimum wrestling weight based on 7% body fat for males and 12% for females. The

wrestler may not wrestle at a weight class below his minimum weight during the season. The wrestler is

also restricted from losing more then 1.5% body weight loss per week (official weigh-ins at certification,

matches, and tournaments are used for this calculation). A one-pound per month growth allowance is

provided to allow for the natural growth of this age group. The VHSL advises, and we have instituted,

daily weigh-ins before and after practice to monitor weight-loss and dehydration.

Additionally, the National Federation of State High School Associations has adopted several other rules to

guide coaches and wrestlers while managing their weight. Wrestlers are discouraged from wrestling at a

weight class more then one weight class above their certified weight.
