A difference is the result of a subtraction.
Call the number n.
"seven times a number": 7n
"eight more than four times the number": 4n + 8
"The difference between seven times a number and eight more than four times the number": 7n - (4n + 8)
Answer: 7n - (4n + 8)
-1/2x > 6
All you have to do is divide 6 by -1/2, which is -3. The answer is x < -3, the sign got flipped because you divide by a negative number.
Step-by-step explanation:
B. Yes, we are 99% confident that the population mean is within the interval.
C. Yes, 225 is below the interval minimum, so it is reasonable to conclude the average cholesterol level is greater than 225 mg/dl.
D. No. Increasing the sample size would decrease the margin of error, so the ends of the interval would move closer to the sample mean of 251.9. So the interval minimum would still be higher than 225.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use point (1, 3.5) on the graph
x = 1, y = 3.5
k = 3.5
30% of 250 can be written as 0.3 * 250:
0.3(250) = 75
30% of 250 is 75. Is this what you mean by "compute with percents?"
