According to the United States Census Bureau, the average single-family home constructed in 2016 was 2,463 square feet. Carmen wondered if families in her area still want a smaller home in comparison to the average. She randomly selected 49 people and asked what the ideal square footage of a home is for them. From the responses, she calculated the sample mean equals 1,640 square feet with a sample standard deviation of 66 square feet. Calculate the value of the test statistic.

ab will be equal to

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.

step-by-step explanation:

a

(6r + 7) + (13 + 7r) ( remove brackets and collect like terms )

= 6r + 7 + 13 + 7r

= 13r + 20

b

remove brackets and collect like terms

13 - r - 1 + r

= 12 - r

c

remove brackets and collect like terms

= - 8 - r + 2r - 4

= - 12 + r

d

remove brackets and collect like terms

= 7r - - - 6r

[-   - = - - = - ]

= r -
