Use the Associative Property to write and expression equivalent to (w+9)+3. Please use your explanation.

The equivalent expression for the given expression (w+9)+3 using associative property is w + 12

Solution:

Given that, expression is ( w + 9 ) + 3

We have to find how do we can use the associative property to write an expression equivalent to ( w + 9 ) + 3

The associative property states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped

By above definition, we get

(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)

So, now let us apply the above property to the given expression,

Then, ( w + 9 ) + 3 = w + ( 9 + 3 ) = w + 12

Hence, the equivalent expression for the given expression is w + 12

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
