You measure 34 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 69 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 8.2 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight is between 66.24 and 71.76 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{8.2}{\sqrt{34}} = 2.76[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 69 - 2.76 = 66.24 ounces

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 69 + 2.76 = 71.76 ounces.

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight is between 66.24 and 71.76 ounces.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "[tex](32.8318736, 29.1681264)[/tex]"

Step-by-step explanation:

When the [tex]95\%[/tex] of the confidence interval are true population means of the dog weight then:

[tex]=\bar{x} \pm \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}} \times z_{0.05}\\\\=31 \pm \frac{6.1}{\sqrt{30}}\times 1.64485\\\\=31 \pm 1.83187361\\\\=(32.8318736, 29.1681264)[/tex]

3y=150, what is the value of y-2​

Answers

Answer:

y = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the given 3y = 150.

Solve this for y by dividing both sides by 3:  y = 50

Then y - 2 = 50 - 2, or

        y    =    48

The value of y-2 is 48,

What is an equation?

Two expressions connected by an equal sign makes an equation.

Given is an equation, 3y = 150

Solving for y,

3y = 150

y = 150 / 3

y = 50

therefore, y-2 = 50-2

= 48

Hence, the value of y-2 is 48,

Step-by-step explanation:

A Hamiltonian circuit visits each node once and returns to its start. There is no simple way to determine if such a circuit exists.

__

For graph 2, if there were a circuit, paths ACB, ADB, and AEB would all have to be on it. Inclusion of all of those requires visiting nodes A and B more than once, so the circuit cannot exist.

__

For graph 3, the circuit must include paths BAD and DFE. That only leaves node C, which can be reached from both nodes B and E, so path ECB completes the circuit.

Answer:

tn = 8n -7

Step-by-step explanation:

given : t2=9, t4=25

the formula is:

tn = t1 + (n-1) d

gonna find d first:

d = (25-9) /(4-2) = 16/2 = 8

and find tn1:

t1 = 9-8 = 1

so, tn = 1 + (n-1) (8) = 1 +8n -8

tn = 8n -7

Answer:

Solution given

n th term[tn]=?

1st term =a

difference =d

we have

t2=9

a+(n-1)d=9

a+(2-1)d=9

a+d=9

a=9-d..................[1]

again

t4=25

a+(n-1)d=25

a+(4-1)d=25

now

substituting value of a

9-d+3d=25

2d=25-9

d=16/2

d=8

substituting value of d in equation 1.

,a=9-8

a=1

we have

tn term =a+(n-1)d=1+(n-1)8=1+8n-8=8n-7

n th term =8n-7

Answers

Answer:

The center (-3, 0)

9514 1404 393

Answer:

center: (-3, 0)radius: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired parameters can be found by putting the equation into the standard form for the equation of a circle:

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . circle centered at (h, k) with radius r

The values of h and k will be half the coefficients of the linear x- and y-terms, respectively.

  x^2 +6x +9 +y^2 -7 = 9 . . . . . add 9 to complete the square

  (x +3)^2 +y^2 = 16 . . . . . . . . . add 7 to get the desired form

This equation shows us (h, k) = (-3, 0) and r = 4.

The center is (-3, 0), and the radius is 4.

Answers

Answer:

9.3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 2.89\sin(0.0145x-1.40) + 10.99.[/tex]

Required

Hours of sunlight on Feb 21, 2013

First, calculate the number of days from Jan 1, 2013 to Feb 21, 2013

[tex]days = 52[/tex]

So:

[tex]x = 52[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = 2.89\sin(0.0145x-1.40) + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.89\sin(0.0145*52-1.40) + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.89\sin(0.754-1.40) + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.89\sin(-0.646) + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.89*-0.6020 + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = -1.740 + 10.99.[/tex]

[tex]y = 9.25[/tex]

Which of the following statements must be true

Answers

Answer:

only 3) is true. EC is equidistant (the same distance) to BD

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have no coordinates or other specific distance information for the various points and lines, we can only confirm statements that must be true for any placement of the lines inside a circle with the described attributes.

the distance EC could be the same as CB, but if we move ED further up or down in the circle (still parallel to CB), we can easily see, that this is not a general case.

the same for CB and BD.

since CB and BD are airways parallel to each other, the symmetry principle of a circle requires that the distance of EC is airways equal to the distance of BD for all such possible pairs of parallel lines inside the circle.

the graph itself gives an example that the distance CB and the distance ED do not have to be the same. they can be for certain pairs of parallel lines in the circle, but not for all of them.

What is the distance between 3x - 5y + 3 =0 and 6x - 10y -12 =0

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (9/34)√34 ≈ 1.543

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation can be rewritten as ...

  6x -10y -12 = 0

  3x -5y -6 = 0

  3x -5y = 6

__

The formula for the distance from point (x, y) to line ax+by+c=0 is ...

  d = |ax+by+c|/√(a²+b²)

Then the distance from a point to the first line is ...

  d = |3x -5y +3|/√(3² +(-5)²)

We know from the rearrangement of the second equation that points on its line satisfy (3x-5y) = 6. Substituting this value for (3x -5y) in the distance formula gives ...

  d = |6 +3|/√34

Simplifying and rationalizing the denominator gives a distance of ...

  d = (9/34)√34 ≈ 1.543

If a distribution for a quantitative variable is thought to be nearly symmetric with very little variation,and a box and whisker plot is created for this distribution,which of the following is true?
A) The box will be quite wide but the whisker will be very short.
B) The left and right-hand edges of the box will be approximately equal distance from the median.
C) The whiskers should be about half as long as the box is wide.
D) The upper whisker will be much longer than the lower whisker.

Answers

Answer:

B). The left and right-hand edges of the box will be approximately equal distances from the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 'symmetry' si described as a 'satisfying arrangement of a balanced distribution of the elements of the whole' while a 'symmetry group' is characterized as a group whose elements are all the transformations under which a given object remains invariant and whose group operation is function composition.

As per the given conditions, the second statement asserts a true claim regarding the keeping of edges of left, as well as, right-hand side's boxes at equal intervals from the median. This will help in making the arrangement fulfilling while keeping a little scope for the variation. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

Answer:

The correlation coefficient of the data is -0.13, which means as the weekly mileage increases, it has no effect on the average mile time.Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient of a data set describes how closely related two variables are. Correlation coefficients close to positive 1 show a strong positive correlation, while correlation coefficients close to negative 1 show a strong negative correlation. When a correlation coefficient is close to 0, it shows no correlation between the data.

For the given data set, calculate the correlation coefficient using technology.

This r-value is closer to 0 then it is to -1. Thus, the correlation coefficient of the data is -0.13, which means as the weekly mileage increases, it has no effect on the average mile time.
