Alan used the expression StartFraction 5 over 9 EndFraction (F minus 32), where F is a temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, to convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius. He evaluated the expression as shown below and found that 45 degrees Fahrenheit was equivalent to –7 degrees Celsius.
StartFraction 5 over 9 EndFraction (F minus 32) = StartFraction 5 over 9 (45 minus 32) = 25 minus 32 = negative 7
What error did Alan make?
He substituted 45 for F instead of –7 and should have found the answer to be Negative 21 and two-thirds degrees Celsius.
He did not combine within the parentheses first before multiplying and should have found the answer to be 7 and StartFraction 2 over 9 EndFraction degrees Celsius.
He multiplied 45 by the fraction incorrectly and should have found the answer to be 49 degrees Celsius.
He divided 5F by 9 before subtracting 32 and should have found the answer to be 21 and StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction degrees Celsius.
PLEASE HELP

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking. among mildly obese people, the mean number of minutes of daily activity (standing or walking) is approximately normally distributed with mean 376 minutes and standard deviation 64 minutes. the mean number of minutes of daily activity for lean people is approximately normally distributed with mean 528 minutes and standard deviation 107 minutes. a researcher records the minutes of activity for an srs of 7 mildly obese people and an srs of 7 lean people. use z-scores rounded to two decimal places to answer the following: what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes? what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?

In δabc shown below, ∠bac is congruent to ∠bca: triangle abc, where angles a and c are congruent given: base ∠bac and ∠acb are congruent. prove: δabc is an isosceles triangle. when completed (fill in the blanks), the following paragraph proves that line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc making δabc an isosceles triangle. (4 points) construct a perpendicular bisector from point b to line segment ac . label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and line segment ac as point d: m∠bda and m∠bdc is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. ∠bda is congruent to ∠bdc by the definition of congruent angles. line segment ad is congruent to line segment dc by by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. δbad is congruent to δbcd by the line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc because consequently, δabc is isosceles by definition of an isosceles triangle. 1. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc) 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 2. the definition of congruent angles 1. the definition of congruent angles 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. angle-side-angle (asa) postulate 2. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc)
