Imagine you are hanging two identical picture frames. Each frame is 28 inches wide and the wall you are hanging them on is 10 fe

et wide. There needs to be 8 inches of space in between the two frames. How far do the frames need to be from the left and right side of the walls in order to be centered?

Answer:

  • 28 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sum of the width of the two frames and a gap between them:</u>

  • 28*2 + 8 = 64 in

<u>The gaps from the left and right are equal to x:</u>

  • x = (10 feet - 64 in)/2 = (120 in - 64 in)/2 = 28 in

Which will result in a perfect square trinomial (3x-5) (-3x-5)?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

-9x² + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, use FOIL. FOIL:

First

Outside

Inside

Last

Solve "First":

(3x)(-3x) = -9x²

Solve "Outside":

(3x)(-5) = -15x

Solve "Inside":

(-5)(-3x) = +15x

Solve "Last":

(-5)(-5) = +25

Combine like terms:

-9x² - 15x + 15x + 25

-9x² (-15x + 15x) + 25

-9x² + 25

-9x² + 25 is your answer.

-| 15| simplify the expression
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative is outside of the absolute value signs/lines. The absolute value is how far the number is from 0. So, it doesn't matter whether or not there is a negative sign inside of the absolute value lines it will always be positive. But, if it's outside of it, then it will be negative.

Two random samples are taken, with each group asked if they support a particular candidate. A summary of the sample sizes and pr
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

And we got \alpha/2 =0.01 so then the value for \alpha=0.02 and then the confidence level is given by: Conf=1-0.02=0.98[/tex[ or 98%Step-by-step explanation:A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  [tex]p_1 represent the real population proportion for 1

\hat p_1 =0.768 represent the estimated proportion for 1

n_1=92 is the sample size required for 1

p_2 represent the real population proportion for 2

\hat p_2 =0.646 represent the estimated proportion for 2

n_2=95 is the sample size required for 2

z represent the critical value for the margin of error  

The population proportion have the following distribution  

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})  

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula  

(\hat p_1 -\hat p_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}  

For this case we have the confidence interval given by: (-0.0313,0.2753). From this we can find the margin of erro on this way:

ME= \frac{0.2753-(-0.0313)}{2}=0.1533

And we know that the margin of erro is given by:

ME=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}

We have all the values except the value for z_{\alpha/2}

So we can find it like this:

0.1533=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{0.768(1-0.768)}{92} +\frac{0.646 (1-0.646)}{95}}

And solving for z_{\alpha/2} we got:

z_{\alpha/2}=2.326

And we can find the value for \alpha/2 with the following excel code:

"=1-NORM.DIST(2.326,0,1,TRUE)"

And we got \alpha/2 =0.01 so then the value for \alpha=0.02 and then the confidence level is given by: Conf=1-0.02=0.98 or 98%

(1 point) There were 23.7 million licensed drivers in California in 2009 and 22.76 million in 2004. Find a formula for the numbe
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of licensed drivers in 2004 = 22.76 million

Number of licensed drivers in 2009 = 23.7 million

Number of licensed drivers, N as a function of t since year 2004 ;

General form of a linear function :

y = mx + c

c = intercept ; m = slope

Intercept c = value of y ; when x = 0

Here, population after uerssmmx,

Hence,

In 2004 ;

22.76 = mx + c

x = 0

22.76 = c

Number in 2009

x = number of yesrs after 2004 ; x = 2000 - 2004 = 5years

We can find the slope :

y = m*5 + 22.76

y = 23.7 in 2009

23.7 = 5m + 22.76

23.7 - 22.76 = 5m

m = 0.94 / 5

m = 0.188

Hence, the linear function can be written as :

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76
