What does it mean to multiply a number by -1?​

Answers

Answer 1
Multiplying a number by -1 makes the number a negative version of itself. For example, if you were to multiply 3 by -1, you would end up getting a product of -3.
Answer 2

Answer:

Multiplying a number by -1 means the sign on the number is made opposite. If the number was positive, it becomes negative. If the number was negative, it becomes positive.

FIND THE VALUE OF X2 FOR 20 DEGREES OF FREEDOM AND AN AREA OF .010 IN THE RIGHT TAIL OF THE CHI SQUARE

Answers

Answer:

The critical value of chi-square for 20 degrees of freedom and 0.01 level of significance is 37.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of chi-square for 20 degrees of freedom an area of 0.01 in the right tail of the chi-square.

As we know that in the chi-square table; there is one vertical column represented by 'P' (the level of significance and one horizontal column represented by '[tex]\nu[/tex]' which is degrees of freedom.

Here, the degrees of freedom given to us is 20.

and the level of significance is 0.01 or 1% for the right tail of chi-square.

By looking at the chi-square table, the critical value of chi-square for 20 degrees of freedom and 0.01 level of significance is 37.57.

How would you round 95687 to the nearest thousand?

Answers

Answer:

96,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To round to the nearest thousand, we need to look at the digit in the hundreds place, which is 6. Since 6 > 5, we know that we need to round up (because 6 is closer to 10 than it is to 0). Currently, the number is 95 thousand so when rounding up, the answer will be 96,000.

The ratio of fiction to nonfiction books in a classroom library is 2 to 3 . If there are 24 books nonfiction books in the classroom library , how many fiction books are there?

Answers

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of fiction to nonfiction books in a classroom library is 2 to 3, then the total ratio of both books will be 2+3 = 5. If there are 24 books non fiction books in the library, to get the amount of fictionbooks that are there we will follow the following steps.

First we will calculate the total number of books in the shelf;

3/5 * Total number of books = total non fiction books

3/5 * Total number of books = 24

3*Total number of books = 5*24

3*Total number of books = 120

Total number of books = 120/3

Total number of books = 40

Therefore there are 40 total of books on the shelf.

Total number of fiction books = 2/5 * 40

Total number of fiction books = 2* 8

Total number of fiction books = 16 books

Hence there are 16 fiction books on the shelf.

Residents of the town of Maple Grove who are connected to the municipal water supply are billed a fixed amount monthly plus a charge for each cubic foot of water used. A household using 1500 cubic feet was billed $80, while one using 2100 cubic feet was billed $92. Write an equation for the total cost of a resident's water as a function of cubic feet of water used.

Answers

Answer:

A = 50 + 0.02x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the fixed amount be m

Let the charge for each cubic ft used be c

Let the amount of cubic ft of water used be x.

Let the total cost per month be A

Now, for the first household, they used 1500 cubic feet in a month and were billed $80.

This means, x = 1500 ft³ and A = $80

Since, we are told they are charged a fixed amount plus a fee per cubic ft consumed. We can say that;

m + cx = A

Thus,

m + 1500c = 80 - - - - (eq1)

For 2nd household:

They used 2100 cubic feet was billed $92.

Thus;

m + 2100c = 92 - - - - (eq 2)

Let's subtract eq1 from eq 2 to get;

2100c - 1500c = 92 - 80

600c = 12

c = 12/600

c = 0.02

Putting 0.02 for C in eq1 gives;

m + 1500(0.02) = 80

m + 30 = 80

m = 80 - 30

m = 50

From m + cx = A, we can say that;

50 + 0.02x = A

The price for 2 student tickets and 4 adult tickets to a play is $50. Adult tickets are $5 more than student tickets. write an the equation

Answers

Answer:

2x + 4y = $50

x = $5, and y = $10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the price of student's ticket be represented by $x, and that of adult by $y. So that:

2x + 4y = $50 ................  1

But, given that adult tickets are $5 more that student tickets.

i.e y = x + $5  .................  2

Substitute equation 2 into 1, to have;

2x + 4(x + $5) = $50

2x + 4x + $20 = $50

6x = $30

x = $5

From equation 2,

y = 5 + 5

  = $10

Therefore, the price of student tickets is $5 and adult tickets is $10.

An observation is considered an outlier if it is above:____________.

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given the five summary of a data set:

45 - min

46 - Q1

51 - Median

60 - Q3

66 - Max

Thus, any number less than [tex] Q_1 - (1.5*IQR) [/tex], or any number that is greater than [tex] Q_3 + (1.5*IQR) [/tex] would be considered an outlier.

The IQR of the data set = Q3 - Q1 = 60 - 46 = 14

Thus,

[tex] Q_1 - (1.5*IQR) = 46 - (1.5*14) = 46 - 21 = 25 [/tex]

Therefore, an observation is considered an outlier if it is below: 25.

[tex] Q_3 + (1.5*IQR) = 60 + (1.5*14) = 60 + 21 = 81 [/tex]

Therefore, an observation is considered an outlier if it is above: 81.
