1-3=-2 so -2/8 is -1/4 so negative one fourth
Let be "x" the number of colored pencils in the box.
According to the information given in the exercise, there are 84 pencils in the box and 53 of them are regular pencils.
Knowing this information, you can set up the following equation:

Finally, you have to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value. In order to do this, you can apply the Subtraction property of equality by subtracting 53 from both sides of the equation:

The answer is: There are 31 colored pencils in the box.
Answer:
The statement, (1- <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for (μ₁ - μ₂) does not contain zero is TRUE.
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypothesis for a test is defined as follows:
<em>H</em>₀: μ₁ = μ₂ vs. <em>H</em>ₐ: μ₁ ≠ μ₂
It is provided that the test was rejected st the significance level <em>α</em>%.
If a decision is to made using the confidence interval the conditions are:
If the null hypothesis value is not included in the (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice versa.
In this case the null hypothesis value is:
<em>H</em>₀: μ₁ - μ₂ = 0.
If the value 0 is not included in the (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for the difference between two means, then the null hypothesis will be rejected.
Thus the statement, (1- <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for (μ1- μ2) does not contain zero is TRUE.
Answer:
95% of the population spent between 16.8 hours to 26.2 hours on social media per month
Step-by-step explanation:
- subtracting 1 from sample size: 83-1= 82
- Note Mean=21.5 and standard deviation=2.5
- Subtracting confidence interval from 1 and dividing by 2: (1-0.95)/2=0.025
- At α=0.025 and dF=82, the t-distribution table gives 1.984
- Divide standard deviation by square root of sample size: 21.5/√83= 2.36
- Multiplying answer in step 4 by answer in step 5: 2.36×1.984= 4.68
- For lower end: 21.5-4.68= 16.82
- for upper end: 21.5+4.68=26.18
Answer:
Using points ( 2 , - 4) and ( 0 , 2)
Slope = 2+4/0-2 = 6/-2 = - 3
Since the lines are parallel their slope will be the same
So the slope of the line parallel to the one in the picture is - 3
That's option A.
Hope this helps.
