The answer is C because when adding two negatives it equals a positive
3/8+5/16
=3/8+5/16
=6/16+5/16
=6+5/16
=11/16

Answer:
The y-intercept of the line is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could try to find the slope of the line and then find the intercept with y axis by sloving b = y - ax
But here it seems easy enough once you see that the x values in the table increase by a factor of 8 and the y values in the table increase by a factor of 20.
(By the way, this is enough to give you the slope, because it is 8/20 ). But why bother?
Just extrapolate the table to the left, and you will find the y value where x = 0
x 0 8 16 24 32
y 2 22 44 64 84
So the y-intercept of the line is 2.
Extra:
The full equation of the line is:
y = 8/20x + 2
Answer:
Velocity ratio of simple machine is the ratio of distance travelled by effort to the distance travelled by load in the machine.Mechanical advantage MA is the ratio of output (generated by the machine) force to input (applied to the machine) force. So MA = 4 means that for example if you apply 100 N then your machine will multiply that force and generate 400 N.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.2087, 0.2507).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of 
, and a confidence level of 
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 
.
For this problem, we have that:
Suppose a sample of 1537 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 1184 read above the eighth grade level. So 1537 - 1184 = 353 read at or below this level. Then
95% confidence level
So 
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 
, so 
.
The lower limit of this interval is:
The upper limit of this interval is:
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.2087, 0.2507).
