Answer:

B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Make 9 an improper fraction, then multiply by -5/6.

-5/6 times 9/1 = -45/6.

-45/6 cannot be simplified, so you make it a mixed number.

-7 1/2.

Add the 7 to -7 1/2 and that cancels out to 1/2

Answer: 1.509

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of Margin of Error for (n<30):-

$E=t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Given : Sample size : n= 22

Level of confidence = 0.99

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$

Using the t-distribution table ,

Critical value : $t_{n-1, \alpha/2}=t_{21,0.005}= 2.831$

Standard deviation: $\sigma=\text{ 2.5 dollars }$

Then, we have

$E=( 2.831)\dfrac{2.5}{\sqrt{22}}\approx1.509$

Hence, the margin of error for a 99% confidence interval for the population mean =1.509

Years, Inning and saves are statistically significant ; ERA is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Earning for staying one additional year :

Multiply slope value of years * 1 = 0.052 * 1 * 100 % = 5.2% (earning increases by 5.2%)

Relives with 10 more saves :

10 * 0.0032 * 100% = 3.2% (earning increases by 3.2%)

Having 100 more innings :

100 * 0.00089 * 100% = 8.9%

If ERA is reduced by 1.5 ; earning will increase by (0.0085*100)% * 1.5 = 1.275%

B.) At 5% level of confidence :

α = 1.64

Years = 0.052/0.026=2

Inning = 0.00089/0.00020 = 4.45

Saves = 0.0032/0.0018 = 1.78

ERA = 0.0085/0.0168 = 0.51

Years, Inning and saves are statistically significant as they are greater than α ; As for ERA, it is not statistically significant (0.51 < 1.64)

Kathy takes her cat to a veterinarian every year for a check-up. Last year, the difference in the cat's weight from teh year bef

Nataliya [291]

To find the difference in weights from two years ago, you will need to combine the 2 differences from the two years.

-1.56 and 0.73 becomes -1.56 + 0.73.

To add a positive and a negative number you will subtract the absolute values of the numbers AND use the sign of the number with the bigger absolute value (negative) in your answer.

|-1.56| - |0.73|
1.56 - 0.73 = 0.83
-0.83

The cat lost 0.83 (-0.83) pounds over 2 years.
