I am very confused lol... So I'm doing a worksheet for Algebra 1 (highschool) and we're doing division and multiplication with f

ractions at the moment to review what we learned last year and I'm stuck. Right now I'm doing #1 and ended up getting 7 1\2... so I ended up doing this as my equation..
3 \frac{3}{4} \div \frac{1}{2}I have no idea if I'm supposed to do division with this but I tried division and multiplication and got 7 1\2 Everytime I did it. And I know the answer is 1 7/8 cause I may have found a cheat sheet online but I still need to know how to do it. Anyways this is what I did:
3 \frac{3}{4} \div \frac{1}{2}
\frac{15}{4} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{30}{4}
\frac{30}{4} = \frac{15}{2} = 7 \frac{1}{2}
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong lol.

OK first change 3 3/4 to an improper fraction and that will give you  15/4. so you got that part right.  Next, change the division sign to multiplication. then flip the 1/2 to 2/1.  Then multiply 15 times 2 and that will give you 30. Then multiply 4 times 1 and that will give you 4. then you will have an answer of  30/4. Finally, since you a have a big number over a small number you divide 30 by 4 and that will give you 7 1/2. So it turns out that your little cheat sheet is wrong because when you check your answer you should go on Math-way to check it. Also, a little background about me is that I am in 8th grade and I am taking algebra 1 too.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 73 from 180 to get 107. Then divide 107 by 2 to get 53.5 degrees. For each angle. Meaning angle B is 53.5 or 54 degrees.

An object moves at a constant rate. The graph shows the object's height at different times. Which equation represents the situat
zlopas [31]
<span>d. y = 15x 900</span>

Although you do not give the rates I assume the answer is D as it is the only positive multiplication. You cannot have negative height.

1) If the alpha level is changed from α = .05 to α = .01, what happens to boundaries for the critical region?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

1) a. Move farther into the tails

2) a. Decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

1)

Let's say for example that you are making a confidence interval for the mean, using the Z-distribution:

X[bar] ± Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Leaving all other terms constant, this are the Z-values for three different confidence levels:

90% Z_{0.95}= 1.648

95% Z_{0.975}= 1.965

99% Z_{0.995}= 2.586

Semiamplitude of the interval is

d= Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Then if you increase the confidence level, the value of Z increases and so does the semiamplitude and amplitude of the interval:

↑d= ↑Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

They have a direct relationship.

So if you change α: 0.05 to α: 0.01, then the confidence level 1-α increases from 0.95 to 0.99, and the boundaries move farther into the tails.

2)

The significance level of a hypothesis test is the probability of committing a Type I error.

If you decrease the level from 5% to 1%, then logically, the probability decreases.

I hope this helps!
