Researchers study the mean weight (in pounds) of adults between the ages of 30-40. The researchers form a SRS of adults and build a 90% confidence interval: [160, 180]. Which of the following statements are true about this confidence interval?

a. 90% of intervals built according to the method capture the true mean weight of adults between the ages of 30-40.
b. The intervals margin of error is 20.
c. There is a 90% chance that the mean weight of adults between the ages of 30- 40 is between 160 and 180 pounds.
d. The sample mean used to build this interval was 170 pounds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. The sample mean used to build this interval was 170 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the difference between the two bounds, divided by 2.

In this question:

Bounds 160 and 180, so the sample mean used was (160+180)/2 = 170, and thus the correct answer is given by option d.

Q. terms of a geometric sequence are found by the formula Tn = ar n-1 If a = 3 and r = 2 , find the 4 terms of the sequence.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3, 6, 12, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps if the formula is properly written.

  Tn = a·r^(n-1)

Fill in the given values for a, r, and use n = 1 to 4.

  T1 = 3·2^(1-1) = 3

  T2 = 3·2^(2-1) = 6

  T3 = 3·2^(3 -1) = 12

  T4 = 3·2^(4 -1) = 24

__

Additional comment

The value a=3 tells you the first term is 3. The value r=2 tells you each term is 2 times the previous one. Knowing this, you can write down the sequence based on your knowledge of multiplication tables (×2). You can use the formula as we did above, but it isn't necessary.

List the angles in order from the smallest to the largest.

Answers

Answer:

D. <S, <R, <T

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: On a triangle, the bigger an angle measure the longer the side opposite it and vice versa.

In ∆RST,

The longest side, SR = 22, is opposite to <T

Therefore, <T is the biggest angle.

Medium side, ST = 21, is opposite to <R, therefore,

<R is the medium angle measure

The smallest angle measure <S is opposite to the shortest side, RT.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Here, the "opposite" is the elevation of point B above point A, and the "hypotenuse" is the length of the railway. Then the total height of point B is ...

  B = 856 + 864·sin(120°)

  B = 856 +864(√3)/2 = 856 +432√3 ≈ 1604.246

The height of the train at point B is about 1604 m above sea level.

Answer:

68.1

Step-by-step explanation:

If those angles are congruent, then all side lengths follow the same ratio.

So the smaller triangle side length of 9 over the small side length of the bigger triangle 21.5, is the ratio for all the sides.

9/21.5 = unknown side / 48

unknown side = 48 * 9/21.5

So to find the length of CD, multiply 48 by our ratio to get ~ 20.1

Add that to our 48 and we get 68.1

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

We know that the remainder R[tex]_n[/tex] will satisfy | R[tex]_n[/tex] | ≤ b[tex]_{ n + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( n + 1 )9[tex]^{ n + 1[/tex].

We must make n large enough so that this is less than 0.0001.

Rounding to five decimal places,

we have b₂ = _________ , b₃ =_________and b₄ =__________

Answer:

b₂ = 0.00617, b = 0.00046 and  b₄ = 0.00004

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

| R[tex]_n[/tex] | ≤ b[tex]_{ n + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( n + 1 )9[tex]^{ n + 1[/tex]

Now,

b[tex]_{ n + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( n + 1 )9[tex]^{ n + 1[/tex]

b₂ = b[tex]_{ 1 + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( 1 + 1 )9[tex]^{ 1 + 1[/tex] = 1 / (2)9² = 1 / 162 = 0.00617   { 5 decimal places }

b₃ = b[tex]_{ 2 + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( 2 + 1 )9[tex]^{ 2 + 1[/tex] = 1 / (3)9³ = 1 / 2187 = 0.00046 { 5 decimal places }

b₄ = b[tex]_{ 3 + 1[/tex] = 1 / ( 3 + 1 )9[tex]^{ 3 + 1[/tex] = 1 / (4)9⁴ = 1 / 19683 = 0.00004 { 5 decimal places }

Therefore, b₂ = 0.00062, b = 0.00046 and  b₄ = 0.00004

Use the Central Limit Theorem to find the mean and standard error of the mean of the indicated samplingg distribution.

The amounts of time employees of a telecommunications company have worked for the company are normally distributed with a mean of 5.5 years and a standard deviation of 2.1 years. Random samples of size 17 are drawn from the population and the mean of each sample is determined.

a. 1.33 years, 2.1 years
b. 5.5 years, 0.12 years
c. 5.5 years, 0.51 years
d. 1.33 years, 0.51 years

Answers

Answer:

c. 5.5 years, 0.51 years

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Mean of 5.5 years and a standard deviation of 2.1 years.

This means that, for the population, [tex]\mu = 5.5, \sigma = 2.1[/tex]

Random samples of size 17.

This means that [tex]n = 17[/tex]

Use the Central Limit Theorem to find the mean and standard error of the mean of the indicated sampling distribution.

The mean is the same as the mean for the population, that is, 5.5 years.

The standard deviation is:

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{2.1}{\sqrt{17}} = 0.51[/tex]

This means that the correct answer is given by option c.

Answers

Answer:

a simple random sample (SRS).

Step-by-step explanation:

In Statistics, sampling can be defined as a process used to collect or select data (objects, observations, or individuals) from a larger statistical population using specific procedures.

There are various types of sampling used by researchers and these are;

1. Systematic sampling.

2. Convenience sampling.

3. Stratified sampling.

4. Cluster sampling.

5. Random sampling.

Random sampling also referred to as simple random sample (SRS) involves randomly selecting a subset of a larger population.

In this scenario, an elected government official randomly selected five schools at random from the 20 schools in her area and then interviews each of the teachers in those five schools, in order to get their opinions about voting. Thus, the government official is using a simple random sample (SRS).

Barnaby decided to count the number of ducks and geese flying south for the winter. On the first day he counted 175 ducks and 63 geese. By the end of migration, Barnaby had counted 4,725 geese. If the ratio of ducks to geese remained the same (175 to 63), how many ducks did he count?

Answers

Answer:

13,125 ducks

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of ducks:geese on the first day was:

175:63

On the last day (end of migration), he counted 4,725 geese.

To find the number of ducks using the same ratio, we are first going to divide 4,725 by 63 to find what number all the ducks and geese multiplied by:

4,725/63 = 75

The geese multiplied by 75. This means the ducks also multiplied by 75:

175*75 = 13,125

Barnaby counted 13,125 ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to form an inequality of the given statement.

82 less than r is less than -164

Less than is written as <.

82 less than r means, 82<r

r is less than -164, r<-164

Combining two statements,

82<r<-164

Hence, the expression for 82 less than r is less than -164 is 82<r<-164.
