Answer:
The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 3.5.
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the American students and the mean height of the non-American students, in inches, is (2.25, 4.75).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
American students:
Sample of 12, mean height of 68.4 inches with a standard deviation of 1.64 inches. This means that:
[tex]\mu_A = 68.4[/tex]
[tex]s_A = \frac{1.64}{\sqrt{12}} = 0.4743[/tex]
Non-American students:
Sample of 17, mean height of 64.9 inches with a standard deviation of 1.75 inches. This means that:
[tex]\mu_N = 64.9[/tex]
[tex]s_N = \frac{1.75}{\sqrt{17}} = 0.4244[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]\mu = \mu_A - \mu_N = 68.4 - 64.9 = 3.5[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.4743^2 + 0.4244^2} = 0.6365[/tex]
The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 3.5.
Confidence interval:
[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu - zs = 3.5 - 1.96*0.6365 = 2.25[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu + zs = 3.5 + 1.96*0.6365 = 4.75[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the American students and the mean height of the non-American students, in inches, is (2.25, 4.75).

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 55% salt and Solution B is 70% salt. She wants to obtain 30 ounces of a mixture that is 60% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Answer:
Let x = the number of ounces of Solution A
Let y = the number of ounces of Solution B
x + y = 180 y = 180 - x
.60x + .85y = .75(180)
.60x + .85y = 135 Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 to remove the decimal points.
60x + 85y = 13500
60x + 85(180 - x) = 13500
60x + 15300 - 85x = 13500
-25x = -1800
x = 72ounces
y = 180 - 72
y = 108 ounces

A population of deer in Florida grows according to a logistic model, with r = 0.17 and K = 10,000. At what population size is the per capita population growth rate the highest? Group of answer choices N = 1000 N = 5000 N = 8000 N = 10000
Answer:
N = 1000
Step-by-step explanation:
The population growth of species per capita of any geographical can be computed by using the formula:
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}=rN (1 - \dfrac{N}{K})[/tex]
here;
N = population chance
T = time taken
K = carrying capacity
r = the constant exponential growth rate
From the given equation, we can posit that the value of r will be the greatest at the time the value of dN is highest:
As such, when the population chance = 1000
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}=0.17 * 1000 (1 - \dfrac{1000}{10000})[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}=0.17 * 1000 (0.9)[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}= 153[/tex]
At N = 5000;
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}= 85[/tex]
At N= 8000;
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}= 34[/tex]
At N = 10000
[tex]\dfrac{dN}{dT}= 0[/tex]

Explanation:
Normally, y = cos(x) has a period of 2pi. This means that every 2pi horizontal units, the graph repeats itself. However, we can see that the period here is pi units instead.
One way to see this is to start at (0,1). This is a local max point. Move to its neighboring local max at (pi,1). We have moved pi units along the x axis and the cycle is finished, after which point the cycle repeats itself.
Since T = pi is the period, we then can say B = 2pi/T = 2pi/pi = 2
This is then plugged into y = A*cos(B(x-C))+D where
A = 1
C = 0
D = 0
That leads us to y = cos(2x)
Since the period is often connected to time values, it might help to think of this wave's oscillations occurring twice as often compared to y = cos(x). So that might help see why we replace the x with 2x.
The length of a rectangle is (x+1) cm, and its width is 5 cm less than its length.
a) Express the area of the rectangle, A cm^2 , in terms of x.
b) The area of the rectangle is 24 cm^2. Calculate the length and width of the rectangle.
Answer:
a) x^2-3x-4(you also can express it as (x+1)(x-4))
b)The length is 8 cm, the width is 3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The length is x+1
The width is (x+1-5)= x-4
The area is the product of the length and the width
(x+1)(x-4)= x^2-3x-4
b) The formula for counting the area is x^2-3x-4
It is equal to 24
S0 x^2-3x-4=24
x^2-3x-28=0
a=1 b=-3 c=-28
D= b^2-4ac= 3^2-4*(-28)= 9+112= 121
sqrtD= 11
x1= (-b-sqrtD)/2a=(3-11)/2=-4 The length is -4+1=-3<0, but the length must be positive, this root isn't suitable.
x2= (-b+sqrtD)/2a=(3+11)/2=7 The length is 7+1=8 (it is suitable)
8-5=3 - The width
Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.
From the graph, we can write that
The equatuon of line passes through (0,4) and
(-8,0) points.
So
[tex] \sf \: slope \: \: m = \frac{4 - 0}{0 - ( - 8)} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \therefore \green{\sf \: m = \frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

which of the following are ordered pairs for the given function f(x)=1+x.? (1,2) (3,3) (0,2) (1,0) (0,1)
Answer:
no,
(
1
,
0
)
is not an ordered pair of the function
f
(
x
)
=
1
+
x
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ordered pairs are usually written in the form
(
x
,
y
)
by tradition.
so usingthe function,
f
(
x
)
=
1
+
x
we can rewrite it as,
y
=
1
+
x
any pair of x and y that satisfy this equation are solutions to the equation.
so subbing in
(
1
,
0
)
,
0
=
1
+
(
1
)
0
=
2
which is not true so the point does not make the function true.
It might be easier to see graphically,
graph{1+x [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
any combination of x and y on this line make the equation true and as such are an ordered pair of the function.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
look at the image below
sin4x.sin5x+sin4x.sin3x-sin2x.sinx=0
Recall the angle sum identity for cosine:
cos(x + y) = cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)
cos(x - y) = cos(x) cos(y) + sin(x) sin(y)
==> sin(x) sin(y) = 1/2 (cos(x - y) - cos(x + y))
Then rewrite the equation as
sin(4x) sin(5x) + sin(4x) sin(3x) - sin(2x) sin(x) = 0
1/2 (cos(-x) - cos(9x)) + 1/2 (cos(x) - cos(7x)) - 1/2 (cos(x) - cos(3x)) = 0
1/2 (cos(9x) - cos(x)) + 1/2 (cos(7x) - cos(3x)) = 0
sin(5x) sin(-4x) + sin(5x) sin(-2x) = 0
-sin(5x) (sin(4x) + sin(2x)) = 0
sin(5x) (sin(4x) + sin(2x)) = 0
Recall the double angle identity for sine:
sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)
Rewrite the equation again as
sin(5x) (2 sin(2x) cos(2x) + sin(2x)) = 0
sin(5x) sin(2x) (2 cos(2x) + 1) = 0
sin(5x) = 0 or sin(2x) = 0 or 2 cos(2x) + 1 = 0
sin(5x) = 0 or sin(2x) = 0 or cos(2x) = -1/2
sin(5x) = 0 ==> 5x = arcsin(0) + 2nπ or 5x = arcsin(0) + π + 2nπ
… … … … … ==> 5x = 2nπ or 5x = (2n + 1)π
… … … … … ==> x = 2nπ/5 or x = (2n + 1)π/5
sin(2x) = 0 ==> 2x = arcsin(0) + 2nπ or 2x = arcsin(0) + π + 2nπ
… … … … … ==> 2x = 2nπ or 2x = (2n + 1)π
… … … … … ==> x = nπ or x = (2n + 1)π/2
cos(2x) = -1/2 ==> 2x = arccos(-1/2) + 2nπ or 2x = -arccos(-1/2) + 2nπ
… … … … … … ==> 2x = 2π/3 + 2nπ or 2x = -2π/3 + 2nπ
… … … … … … ==> x = π/3 + nπ or x = -π/3 + nπ
(where n is any integer)

a test for diabetes results in a positive test in 95% of the cases where the disease is present and a negative test in 07% of the cases where the disease is absent. if 10% of the population has diabetes, what is the probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive
Answer:
0.9378 = 93.78% probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Positive test
Event B: Person has diabetes.
Probability of a positive test:
0.95 out of 0.1(person has diabetes).
0.007 out of 1 - 0.1 = 0.9(person does not has diabetes). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.95*0.1 + 0.007*0.9 = 0.1013[/tex]
Probability of a positive test and having diabetes:
0.95 out of 0.1. So
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.95*0.1 = 0.095[/tex]
What is the probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive?
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.095}{0.1013} = 0.9378[/tex]
0.9378 = 93.78% probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive.
