Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is​ false, rewrite it as a true statement. A sampling distribution is normal only if the population is normal. Choose the correct answer below. A. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal only if n30. B. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal if either n30 or the population is normal. C. The statement is true. D. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is never normal.

Answers

Answer: Choice B

The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal if either n > 30 or the population is normal.

==========================================

Explanation:

If the underlying population is normally distributed, then so is the sample distribution (such as the distribution of sample means, aka xbar distribution).

Even if the population isn't normally distributed, the xbar distribution is approximately normal if n > 30 due to the central limit theorem. Some textbooks may use a higher value than 30, but after some threshold is met is when the xbar distribution is effectively "normal".

Choice A is close, but is missing the part about the population being normal. If we know the population is normal, then n > 30 doesn't have to be required.

Find the area of the shaded triangle below.

Answers

Answer:

A = 12 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Triangle = base * height / 2

The triangle might look weird and doesn't look like it has a base, but if you look at the left side you see there is a straight line which means there is a base, so we flip the picture until we see that the flat line on the bottom or the base.

The base is 4 units.

To find the height, we don't need a straight line, we just need to see how the tall the triangle is, to do that you must start from the lowest point and count up to the highest point.

You now get 6 units.

A = bh/2

A = 4*6/2

A = 24/2

A = 12 square units

Which statement BEST describes how to interpret these results

Answers

Complete Question

The  complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The correct option is  D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question the question we are told that

    The researchers were able to state that they are 95% confident that between 52.5% and 59.5% of all U.S. adults believe that the U.S. federal government is not doing enough to keep U.S. elections safe.

Generally a confidence interval states to what extent the chances of the true population is within the a given range

 So the 95% confidence interval given in the question as 52.5% and 59.5%  means that the chances of the true population mean being with this given range is 95%

 So given that the the true population mean is within this range then it means that the population mean will be greater than 50%

   So  the statement that best describe and interprets this result is

The results show significant statistical support that most U.S. adults (over 50%) believe that the U. S. Federal government is not doing enough to keep U.S. election safe.

8) The perimeter of a rectangle is 20x2 + xy - 7y2 and one of it's sides is
7x2 - xy. Find the other side.

Answers

Answer:

3x^2 + 3xy/2 - 7xy^2/2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know the perimeter is 20x^2 + xy - 7y^2,

To find any perimeter you need 2l + 2w = P so,

One of the sides is 7x^2 - xy

First plug in the values,

2(7x^2-xy) + 2w = 20x^2 + xy - 7y^2

Multiply,

14x^2-2xy + 2w = 20x^2 + xy - 7y^2

Subtract,

14x^2 - 2xy - 14x^2 + 2xy + 2w = 20x^2 + xy - 7y^2 - 14x^2 + 2xy

2w = 6x^2 + 3xy - 7y^2

w = 3x^2 + 3xy/2 - 7xy^2/2

Gina, Sam, and Robby all rented movies from the same video store. They each rented some dramas, comedies, and documentaries. Gina rented 11 movies total. Sam rented twice as many dramas, three times as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina. He rented 27 movies total. If Robby rented 19 movies total with the same number of dramas, twice as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina, how many movies of each type did Gina rent?

Answers

Hi there! :)

Answer:

Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we will need to set up a system of equations:

Let x = # of dramas, y = # of comedies, and z = # of documentaries:

Write equations to represent each person:

Gina:

x + y + z = 11

Sam:

2x + 3y + 2z = 27

Robby:

x + 2y + 2z = 19

Write the system:

x + y + z = 11

2x + 3y + 2z = 27

x + 2y + 2z = 19

Begin by subtracting the third equation from the second:

2x + 3y + 2z = 27

x + 2y + 2z = 19

-----------------------

x + y = 8

If x + y = 8, plug this into the first equation:

(8) + z = 11

z = 11 - 8

z = 3

We found the # of documentaries Gina rented, now we must solve for the other variables:

Subtract the top equation from the third. Substitute in the value of z we solved for:

x + 2y + 2(3) = 19

x + y + (3) = 11

-------------------------

y + 3 = 8

y = 5

Substitute in the values for y and z to solve for x:

x + 5 + 3 = 11

x + 8 = 11

x = 11 - 8

x = 3.

Therefore, Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.

Answer:

B- x + y + z = 11

2x + 3y + 2z = 27

x + 2y + 2z = 19

One model of the length LACL of a person's anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL, relates it to the person's height h with the linear function LACL=0.04606h−(41.29 mm) This relationship does not change significantly with age, gender, or weight. If a basketball player has a height of 2.13 m, approximately how long is his ACL?

Answers

Answer:

The [tex]L_{ACL}[/tex] of the player is  [tex]L_{ACL} = 56.82 \ mm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The relationship between the length [tex]L_{ACL}[/tex] to the height is  

            [tex]L_{ACL} = 0.04606h - (41.29 \ mm)[/tex]

       The height of the basketball player  is  [tex]h = 2.13 \ m = 2130 \ mm[/tex]

Substituting the value of height of the basket ball player in to the model we have the [tex]L_{ACL}[/tex] of the player is

          [tex]L_{ACL} = 0.04606 (2130) - (41.29 ) \ mm[/tex]

         [tex]L_{ACL} = 56.82 \ mm[/tex]

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 117and a standard deviation of 6.4.If 64people are randomly​ selected, find the probability that their mean blood pressure will be less than 119.Round to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.9938

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find this probability using a test statistic.

The test statistic to use is the z-scores

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD/√n

from the question, x = 119 , mean = 117 , SD = 6.4 and n = 64

Plugging these values in the z-score equation above, we have;

z-score = (119-117)/6.4/√64

z-score = 2/6.4/8

z-score = 2.5

The probability we want to find is;

P(z < 2.5)

we can get this value from the standard normal distribution table

Thus; P(z < 2.5) = 0.99379

Which to four decimal places = 0.9938

If there is such a scalar function f, then

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=4y^2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=16ye^{4z}[/tex]

Integrate both sides of the first equation with respect to x :

[tex]f(x,y,z)=4xy^2+g(y,z)[/tex]

Differentiate both sides with respect to y :

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=8xy+4e^{4z}=8xy+\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}=4e^{4z}[/tex]

Integrate both sides with respect to y :

[tex]g(y,z)=4ye^{4z}+h(z)[/tex]

Plug this into the equation above with f , then differentiate both sides with respect to z :

[tex]f(x,y,z)=4xy^2+4ye^{4z}+h(z)[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=16ye^{4z}=16ye^{4z}+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}[/tex]

It was a rank wild growth, with many green leaves on it still, and made an impression of thorniness. The fruit was hard and green, but looked as if it would be palatable in the winter. Some was dangling on the twigs, but more half-buried in the wet leaves under the tree, or rolled far down the hill amid the rocks. The owner knows nothing of it. The day was not observed when it first blossomed, nor when it first bore fruit, unless by the chickadee. There was no dancing on the green beneath it in its honor, and now there is no hand to pluck its fruit,which is only gnawed by squirrels, as I perceive. It has done double duty,not only borne this crop, but each twig has grown a foot into the air. And this is such fruit! Bigger than many berries, we must admit, and carried home will be sound and palatable next spring. What care I for other apples so long as I can get these? 2 When I go by this shrub thus late and hardy, and see its dangling fruit, I respect the tree, and I am grateful for Natures bounty, even though I cannot eat it. Here on this rugged and woody hillside has grown an apple-tree, not planted by man, no relic of a former orchard, but a natural growth, like the pines and oaks. Most fruits which we prize and use depend entirely on our care. Corn and grain, potatoes, peaches, melons, etc., depend altogether on our planting; but the apple emulates mans independence and enterprise. It is not simply carried, as I have said, but, like him, to some extent, it has migrated to this New World, and is even, here and there, making its way amid the aboriginal trees; just as the ox and dog and horse sometimes run wild and maintain themselves. 3 Even the sourest and crabbedest apple, growing in the most unfavorable position, suggests such thoughts as these, it is so noble a fruit. Excerpt from "Wild Apples" by Henry David Thoreau. In the public domain. I Hear America Singing by Walt Whitman I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear, Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong, The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam, The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work, 5The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck, The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands, The wood-cutters song, the ploughboys on his way in the morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown, The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing, Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else, 10The day what belongs to the dayat night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.
