In a study on the time that
a student required to obtain a college degree is randomly selected to 80
students and it is discovered that they have an average of 4.8 years (according to data from the National
Center for Education Statistics). Assuming s 2.2 years, construct an estimate of a confidence interval of the population mean. The confidence interval
the result contradicts the fact that 39% of students get their college degree in four years?

Answers

Answer 1

The 95% confidence interval of the population mean, in years, is (4.3, 5.3). 4 years is not part of the confidence interval, which means that it contradicts the fact that 39% of students get their college degree in four years.

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

To solve this question, we need to find the confidence interval for the amount of time it takes the students to get the degree.

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

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

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 80 - 1 = 79

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

95% confidence interval

Standard level of confidence, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 79 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9905.

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

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9905\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{80}} = 0.5[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

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

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 4.8 - 0.3 = 4.3 years.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 4.8 + 0.3 = 5.3 years.

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

The 95% confidence interval of the population mean, in years, is (4.3, 5.3). 4 years is not part of the confidence interval, which means that it contradicts the fact that 39% of students get their college degree in four years.

There are two possible equations, but neither matches the the choices you listed. The choices seem to have several typographical errors.

Point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3) is y - 7 =(-10/9)(x + 4).

How to estimate the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3)?

Slope

[tex]$= \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}[/tex]

= (-3 - 7) / (5 - (-4))

= -10/9

The point-slope equation for the line of slope -(10/9) that passes through the point (5, -3).

y + 3 = (-10/9)(x - 5)

Point slope equation for the line of slope -(10/9) that passes through the point (-4, 7)

Point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3) is y - 7 = (-10/9)(x + 4).

Therefore, the correct answer is y - 7 = (-10/9)(x + 4).

You need 675 mL of a 90% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. How much of the 25% alcohol mixture and pure alcohol will you need to obtain the desired solution?

Answers

Answer:

90 ml of the 25 percent mixture and 585 of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you should find the quantity of alcohol in the desired mixture.

675:100*90= 675*0.9= 607.5

Firstly,  define all the 25 percents mixure as x, the pure alcohol weight is y.

1. x+y= 675 (because the first and the second liquid form a desired liquid).

Then find the equation for spirit

The first mixture contains 25 percents. It is x/100*25= 0.25x

When the second one consists of pure alcohol, it contains 100 percents of spirit,  so it is x.

2. 0.25x+y=607.5

Then you have a system of equations ( 1.x+y= 675 and 2. 0.25x+y= 607.5)

try 2-1 to get rid of y

x+y- (0.25x+y)= 675-607.5

0.75x= 67.5

x= 90

y= 675-x= 675-90= 585

It means that you need90 ml of the 25percents mixture and 585 0f pure alcohol

For the following function, one zero is given. Find all other zeros.

f(x)=x3-7x2+17x-15; 2-i

Answers

Answer:

1,-3,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x)=x^3+7x^2+7x-15

Finding all the possible rational zeros of f(x)

p= ±1,±3,±5,±15 (factors of coefficient of last term)

q=±1(factors of coefficient of leading term)

p/q=±1,±3,±5,±15

Now finding the rational zeros using rational root theorem

f(p/q)

f(1)=1+7+7-15

  =0

f(-1)= -1 +7-7-15

    = -16

f(3)=27+7(9)+21-15

   =96

f(-3)= (-3)^3+7(-3)^2+7(-3)-15

    = 0

f(5)=5^3+7(5)^2+7(5)-15

   =320

f(-5)=(-5)^3+7(-5)^2+7(-5)-15

     =0    

f(15)=(15)^3+7(15)^2+7(15)-15

    =5040

f(-15)=(-15)^3+7(-15)^2+7(-15)-15

     =-1920

Find the assessed value of a store with a market value of $ 163,000
if the rate for assessed value is 25​% of market value.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $40,750

Step-by-step explanation:

Leaving out the extra words, the question is asking you to find 25% of $163,000.

  0.25 × $163,000 = $40,750

The assessed value is $40,750.

Given that,

→ Rate for assessed value = 25%

→ Market value = $ 163,000

We have to find,

→ 25% of $ 163,000

Then value of 25% is,

→ 25 ÷ 100

→ 0.25

Let's find the assessed value,

→ 25% × $ 163,000

→ 0.25 × 163,000

→ 40750

Thus, $ 40750 is assessed value.

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all

Answers

24+-3y is the correct answer

the slope-intercept form of the given equation is y = x/3 + 8.

What is the slope?

The increase divided by the run, or the ratio of the rise to the run is known as the line's slope. The coordinate plane describes the slope of the line.

The slope-intercept form of a line is Y = m*X +C.

Given an equation 3x-9y = -72, which we will try to make in the slope-intercept form by using simplification.

3x-9y = -72

9y = 3x + 72

y = 1/3 * x + 8

Therefore y = x/3 + 8 is the slope-intercept form of the given equation.  where its slope is 1/3.
