Independent simple random samples are selected to test the difference between the means of two populations whose standard deviations are not known. We are unwilling to assume that the population variances are equal. The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35. The correct distribution to use is the: 1) t distribution with 59 degrees of freedom.
2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.
3) t distribution with 61 degrees of freedom.
4) t distribution with 60 degrees of freedom.

2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population standard deviations not known:

This means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35.

The number of degrees of freedom is the sum of the sample sizes subtracted by the number of samples, in this case 2. So

25 + 35 - 2 = 58 df.

Thus the correct answer is given by option 2.

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
