Suppose scores on exams in statistics are normally distributed with an unknown population mean. A sample of 26 scores is given below. Use Excel to find a 90% confidence interval for the true mean of statistics exam scores. Round your answers to one decimal place and use increasing order.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating confidence interval

CI = xbar±z×S/√n

xbar is the mean of the sample

z is the z score at 90% = 1.645

S is the standard deviation of the score

n is the sample size = 26

Since we are not given the scores, we can assume the values of our mean and standard Deviation

Let xbar = 38

S = 3.0

Substitute the given values into the formula

CI = 38±(1.645×3.0/√26)

CI = 38±(1.645×3.0/5.099)

CI = 38±(1.645×0.5884)

CI = 38±0.9678

CI = (38-0.9678, 38+0.9678)

CI = (38.0322, 38.9678)

CI = (38.0, 38.9)

Hence the 90% confidence interval for the true mean of statistics exam scores is 38.0≤p≤38.9

Note that the we will need to generate the mean and standard deviation from the data but since we are not given the required data, we had to assume the value we used in calculation.

Distance between the two endpoints = ?

Solution:

     (-1,0) and (5, -8)

The equation for solving this problem is shown below;

      Distance  = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2} }[/tex]

x₁  = -1      y₁ = 0

x₂  = 5      y₂  = -8

      Distance  = [tex]\sqrt{[(5-(-1)]^{2} + (-8 - 0)^{2} } }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{36 + 64}[/tex]   = 10

2, 3 and 4 represent the graph in the pic

Step-by-step explanation:

When you look at the graph, you can immediately tell the gradient and the y-intercept. The gradient is 1/2 and the y-intercept is -1

Hence the graph in the picture follows the formula: y = 1/2x - 1

When you expand/rearrange the options (1-5) into the slope form you would be able to see which of these options matches with the formula of the line.

1. y= 2x-1: Isn't the same as the equation of the line in the pic

2. Rearrange:

-2y = -x + 2        (divide both sides by 2)

y = x/2 - 1          (x/2 = 1/2x, its the same thing)

3. y= 1/2x - 1       (this is the formula of the line)

4. Expand right-hand-side:

y + 3 = 1/2x + 2    (rearrange)

y = 1/2x - 1            (this is the formula of the line)

5. Expand right-hand-side

y - 2 = 1/2x - 1      (rearrange)

y = 1/2x + 1          (is not the formula of the equation)

The lengths of salamanders have a normal distribution with mean 15cm, and standard deviation 2cm. What is the probability a salamander has length between 12.2cm and 16.5cm

Answers

Answer:

The probability a salamander has a length between 12.2cm and 16.5cm is 0.6930

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by finding the z-score of each

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

for 12.2 cm

z-score = (12.2 - 15)/2 = -2.8/2 = -1.4

For 16.5 cm

z-score = (16.5 -15)/2 = 1.5/2 = 0.75

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P( -1.4 < z < 0.75)

we can calculate this using the normal distribution table

Mathematically;

P( -1.4 < z < 0.75) = P( z < 0.75) - P( z < -1.4)

= 0.2263 + 0.30738

= 0.69262

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not totally sure if that is what you meant by the equation of the line but that is my answer. I can change it if you are more specific.

Anyways, you need to find the slope because you already know the y-intercept, 7.

Slope=rise/run between two pretty points( A point that lines up on the grid)

So you must go from the bottom point and count how ever many are separating the two points. It turned out to be 16 and since the line is going down it is a negative. You then plug the numbers into the slope intercept form and that is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Decimal Grid = Hundredths

[tex]Amber = None[/tex]

[tex]Grace = \frac{3}{5}th[/tex]

[tex]Marsha = 1 + \frac{7}{10}th[/tex]

To solve for each:

We have:

For Amber:

[tex]Amber = 0 * 100[/tex]

[tex]Amber = 0[/tex]

For Grace:

[tex]Grace = \frac{3}{5}th[/tex]

[tex]Grace = \frac{3}{5} * 100[/tex]

[tex]Grace = \frac{300}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Grace = 60[/tex]

This means that Grace shaded 60 of the hundredth models.

Decimal shaded is:

[tex]Grace = 60 * \frac{1}{100}[/tex]

[tex]Grace =\frac{60}{100}[/tex]

[tex]Grace = 0.60[/tex]

For Marsha:

[tex]Marsha = 1 + \frac{7}{10}th[/tex]

[tex]Marsha = \frac{10 + 7}{10}th[/tex]

[tex]Marsha = \frac{17}{10}th[/tex]

[tex]Marsha = 1.7th[/tex]

Multiply this by 100, to get the number of shaded

[tex]Marsha = 1.7 * 100[/tex]

[tex]Marsha = 170[/tex]

This means that Marsha shaded 170 of the hundredth models.

Decimal shaded is:

The freshman spirit club took a trip to the state fair .There were 59 students and 6 chaperones, and the total admission cost for the group was 508$.Student tickets cost 2$ more than the chaperone tickets.Write an equation to represent the cost of a student ticket

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you determine the variables x and y as:

x: the value for student tickets

y: the value for chaperone tickets.

Knowing that student tickets cost $ 2 more than companion tickets, it is represented by the equation:

x= y +2

On the other hand, there were 59 students and 6 companions. And the total cost of admission for the group was $ 508, that is to say that what all the students and the companions have paid adds up to $ 508. Expressed by an equation:

59x + 6y = 508

Then the system of equations to solve and thus obtain the price of a student ticket and the price of a companion ticket is:

[tex]\left \{ {{x=y+2} \atop {59x+6y=508}} \right.[/tex]

Solving for x, the price of a student ticket:

Rearranging  the first equation,

y = x - 2

Replacing in the second equation and solving for x:

59*x + 6*(x -2)=508

59*x + 6*x -12=508

65*x -12=508

65*x= 508 +12

65*x= 520

[tex]x=\frac{520}{65}[/tex]

x=8

The cost of a student ticket is 8$

Answers

Answer:

66⁰ + x = 111⁰

x = 111⁰ - 66⁰

x = 45⁰

Answer:

First, I am taking the interior angle E as 'y' to be able to use the angle sum property to find 'x'.

So we can find 'y' by using 'linear pair'.

So Exterior angle 'E'+y=180 Degree.

=  111+y=180

By transposing: y=180-11

And y= 69 degrees.

And now have angles y & 'Angle G' we can use Angle sum property to find 'x'

ACCORDING TO ANFLE SUM PROPERTY OF TRIANGLE: "THE SUM OF ALL THE ANGLES OF A TRIANGLE IS 180 DEGREE"

THEREFOR, y+x+angle G=180 degrees.

=  69 degrees+66 degrees+x=180 degrees

=  135 degrees+x=180 degrees

by transposing,

x= 180 degrees-135 degrees

And, x= 45 degrees

ANOTHER METHOD:

BY USING EXTERIOR ANGLE PROPERTY.

ACCORDING TO EXTERIOR ANGLE PROPERTY OF TRIANGLE: "An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its interior opposite angles"

So, Exterior Angle E= x+ Angle G

=  111 degrees= x+ 66 degrees

By transposing, x= 111 degrees-66 degrees

=  x=45 degrees.

So no matter whichever method is used, the value of x= 45 degrees.

Sam travel 20 miles in three hours. Sam walked part of the distance at a speed of 4 mph. Sam rode his bicycle for the remaining distance at a speed of 12 mph. How many hours did Sam spend walking? How many hours did Sam spend biking?

Answers

Answer:

Sam sokey 0.5 hours biking and 3.5 hours walking

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of hours spent walking and biking

Mathematically; distance = speed * time

Let the number of hours spent walking be x and the number of hours spent biking be y

Mathematically;

x + y = 3 •••(i)

distance spent walking = 4 * x = 4x miles

distance spent biking = 12 * y = 12y miles

4x + 12y = 20

divide through by 2

2x + 6y = 10 ••••••(ii)

From i , x = 4-y

Substitute this into ii

2(4-y) + 6y = 10

8 - 2y + 6y = 10

8 + 4y = 10

4y = 10-8

4y = 2

y = 2/4 = 0.5 hours

The number of hours spent walking = 4-0.5 = 3.5 hours
