Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse of a function is that value added that will sum it up to zero

If y is the additive inverse of 4x, then y = -4x

Given the expression 17x+3y

Substitute y = -4x into the expression to have;

17x + 3(-4x)

17x -12x

Hence the value of the expression in terms of x is 5x

What is bigger 1/3 or 3/5

raketka [301]

$Method\ 1:$

$\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1\cdot5}{3\cdot5}=\dfrac{5}{15}\\\\\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{3\cdot3}{5\cdot3}=\dfrac{9}{15}\\\\\dfrac{3}{15} < \dfrac{9}{15}\ therefore\ \dfrac{3}{5}\ is\ bigger$

$Method\ 2:$

$\dfrac{1}{3} < \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1.5}{3}\\\\\dfrac{3}{5} > \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{2.5}{5}\\\\therefore\ \dfrac{3}{5}\ is\ bigger$

Answer: $(23.3,\ 29.7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

$\overline{x}\pm ME.$ , where $\overline{x}$ is the sample mean and ME is the margin of error .

Given : The sample mean : $\overline{x}=26.5$

Margin of error : $ME=3.2$

Then , the range of values (confidence interval) likely to contain the true value of the population parameter will be :-

$26.5\pm 3.2=(26.5-3.2,\ 26.5+3.2)=(23.3,\ 29.7)$

Hence, the range of values likely to contain the true value of the population parameter = $(23.3,\ 29.7)$
