Answer:

She gets

Step-by-step explanation:

She gets an error message because when solving a linear equation, the coefficient of the variable is not meant to be the same on both sides of the equation because it will equal 0 in the end. In this equation, you will get 4x on both sides and then the last step will be 0= 3. This is an error.

Well, its 10 for 4. so 8 is 20, 12 is 30, 16 is 40 20 is 50, and 24 is 1 hour, 2 tabels is half the time so 5 min... so it would take -1 hour and 5 min

A cleaner recommends mixing 1½ cup of cleaner for every 12 cups of water. What is the ratio of cleaner to water in simplest form

Pavlova-9 [17]

1.5 cleaner / 12 cups of water
or
1.5 cleaner : 12 cups of water
to reduce this ratio of 1.5:12, we need to divide both by the same number

1.5 divided by 1.5 is 1
12 divided by 1.5 is 8

So the ratio of cleaner to water is 1:8 in its simplest form or 1 part cleaner to 8 parts water.

Hope this helps!! :)

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (58.373;65.627)

We are 99% confident that the true mean for the variable of interest is between 58.373 and 65.627.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=62$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=8 represent the sample standard deviation

n=36 represent the sample size

Part a: Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=36-1=35$

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.005,35)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.72$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$62-2.72\frac{8}{\sqrt{36}}=58.373$

$62+2.72\frac{8}{\sqrt{36}}=65.627$

So on this case the 99% confidence interval would be given by (58.373;65.627)

We are 99% confident that the true mean for the variable of interest is between 58.373 and 65.627.
