I see two ways to do it.
First, you have to understand that when you see a 'complex fraction' like this, the top number is a numerator, and the two bottom numbers are both denominators.
Way-1:
Take the top fraction . . . 2/2 . That's equal to 1 . So the whole thing is <em>1/3</em>.
Way-2:
Multiply the bottom two denominators. Then the whole thing is 2/(2·3) . That's the same thing as 2/6 . Simplify that, and you have <em>1/3</em> .
Answer:
88c = -300
105c = 81300
105b = 294
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Call x the sample mean = 3.56
2) Call s the sample standard deviation = 0.2
3) Given that the variable is normally distributed and the sample is large, you determine the interval of confidence from:
x +/- Z(0.5) s/√n
Wehre Z(0.5) is the value of the probabilities over 5% (90% of confidence mean to subtract 10%, which is 5% for each side (tails) of the normal distribuition) and is taken from tables.
Z(0.5) = 0.3085
Then the inteval is
x +/- 0.385 *s /√n = 3.56 +/- 0.385 * 0.2/√45
3.56 +/- 0.011 = ( 3.549, 3.571). This is the answer.
Y = x - 2. Then graph the equation and verify your answers.
