Answer:
2 or less packs
Step-by-step explanation:
15.99 + 1.99g < 20.00 where g is the number of packs of gum
Subtract 15.99 from each side
15.99 + 1.99g - 15.99 < 20.00-15.99
1.99g < 4.01
Divide by 1.99
1.99g/1.99 < 4.01/1.99
g < 2.015075377
Harold must buy whole packs so g =2 or less
Answer:
90% confidence interval for the mean weight loss for the population represented by this sample assuming that the differences are coming from a normally distributed population is [1.989 ,13.5105]
Step-by-step explanation:
The data given is
Mean Std Dev
Before 177.25 29.325
After 169.50 22.431
Difference 7.75 8.598
Hence d`= 7.75 and sd= 8.598
The 90% confidence interval for the difference in means for the paired observation is given by
d` ± t∝/2(n-1) *sd/√n
Here t∝/2(n-1)=1.895 where n-1= 8-1= 7 d.f
and ∝/2= 0.1/2=0.05
Putting the values
d` ± t∝/2(n-1) *sd/√n
7.75 ±1.895 * 8.598 /√8
7.75 ± 5.7605
1.989 ,13.5105
90% confidence interval for the mean weight loss for the population represented by this sample assuming that the differences are coming from a normally distributed population is [1.989 ,13.5105]
Assuming that the equations are (x+7) and (3x-8) because the first equation does not have a sign these are the steps. When you multiply you will get 3x^2+21x-8x-56. After this you will simplify and you will get your final answer which is 3x^2+13x-56. Also if I used the wrong equations please let me know and I can help you with the correct ones.
