Mathematics

5 0

Answer:

(22,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select any two points given and find their slope (rise/run)

       (-38, 40) and (-23, 30)

      slope =   \frac{40-30}{-38-(-23)} = - 2/3

2. Use the slope and one of the points to create an equation of the line in the format y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

    y = mx + b ⇒ 40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

3. Solve for b

   40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

   40 = 76/3 + b

   40 - 76/3 = b

   b = 44/3

4. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and solve.

   y = -2/3 x + 44/3

   0 = -2/3 x + 44/3

   2/3 x = 44/3

   x = 22

Hope this helped!

Jim’s work evaluating 2(3/5)^3 is shown below.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

2(\frac{3}{5})^{3}

Evaluate

2(\frac{3}{5})^{3}=2(\frac{3^{3}}{5^{3}})\\ \\=2(\frac{27}{125})\\ \\=\frac{54}{125}

therefore

He did not apply the power to the denominator of 3/5

Phonics is an instructional method in which children are taught to connect sounds with letters or groups of letters. A sample of
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A 90% confidence interval for the mean number of letter sounds identified in one minute is: (30.84, 37.34).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.05 = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645\frac{23.44}{\sqrt{141}}

M = 3.25

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 34.09 - 3.25 = 30.84.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 34.09 + 3.25 = 37.34.

A 90% confidence interval for the mean number of letter sounds identified in one minute is: (30.84, 37.34).
