Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) =2x - 5
f(k-2) = 2(k-2) - 5
= 2k -4-5
= 2k - 9

Answer:
b) 31%
Step-by-step explanation:
95% of the normal distribution is between Z values of ±1.96.
99% of the normal distribution is between Z values of ±2.576.
The change from a 95% interval to a 99% interval widens the range by ...
(2.576/1.96 -1) × 100% ≈ 31.4%
The width of the interval increases about 31%.
__
Compare the two attachments. The tail area of 0.05 means the central area is 0.95. Similarly, the tail area of 0.01 means the central area is 0.99.

<em>Additional comment</em>
As always, when you're dealing with percentages, you need to understand what the base value is. Here, when we're talking about 95% and 99% confidence intervals, we're not talking about the numbers 0.95 and 0.99 and the increase from 0.95 to 0.99.
Rather we're talking about areas under the normal probability distribution curve, and the Z-values associated with those intervals. The change in interval width refers to the change in Z-values associated with the areas of 0.95 and 0.99.
Answer: 57 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You know that the volume (V) of gas a balloon can hold varies directly as the cube of its radius (r). Then, you can write the following expression:
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
2. You can calculate k as following:
3. Then, to calculate the cubic inches that must be released to reduce the radius down to 2 inches:
- Solve for the volume as following:
- Make the subtraction of the two volumes shown above. Then, the result is:
Find the common denominator for 8 and 6. That's 48
So 3/8= 18/48
And 5/6=40/48
Minus 40 from 18 to find out how many more cups of water he used.
That's 22 cups of water.
