Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

32.966 ; 36.034)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size , n = 144

Mean, x = 34.5

Standard deviation = 7.9

The confidence interval :

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/√n

Zcritical at 98% = 2.33

Margin of Error = 2.33 * 7.9/√144 = 1.534

Lower boundary = 34.5 - 1.534 = 32.966

Upper boundary = 34.5 + 1.534 = 36.034

(32.966 ; 36.034)

To estimate the mean length of rattlesnakes, 10 such snakes are randomly selected. Their lengths, in inches, are as follows: 40.2 43.1 45.4 44.5 39.5 40.2 41.0 41.6 43.1 44.9 Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean length of all rattlesnakes.

Answers

Answer:

The confidence interval will be "41.04, 43.81".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Sample size,

n = 10

Sample total,

423.5

Sample mean,

[tex]\bar X =\frac{423.5}{10}[/tex]

   [tex]=42.35[/tex]

Sample variance,

[tex]s = \sqrt{4.5894}[/tex]

  [tex]=2.1423[/tex]

[tex]df=n-1[/tex]

   [tex]=9[/tex]

[tex]t^*=18331[/tex]

Now,

The margin of error will be:

⇒ [tex]E=\frac{s\times t^*}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

       [tex]=\frac{2.1423\times 1.8331}{\sqrt{9} }[/tex]

       [tex]=\frac{3.928}{3 }[/tex]

       [tex]=1.309[/tex]

hence,

The 90% confidence level will be:

= [tex](\bar X-E),(\bar X+E)[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

= [tex](42.35-1.309),(42.35+1.309)[/tex]

= [tex](41.04),(43.81)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(number of sides-2)*180 = (6-2)*180 = 720°

a= 720/6= 120°

lines form 180° angles

b= 180-120= 60°

sum of angles in a triangle is 180, and the angles are ≡

c=180/3 = 60°

c and d are supplementary angles (they add to 180)

d= 180-60 = 120°

d ≡ e+e because are vertical angles

e= 120/2 = 60°

sum of angles in a triangle is 180

f= 180 -90-60 = 30°

(number of sides-2)*180 = (5-2)*180 = 540°

g= 540/5= 108°

|x-4| if x>4
can you please help me

Answers

Answer:  x - 4  without the absolute value bars surrounding it

=================================================

Explanation:

If x is larger than 4, then x-4 is positive. For example, if x = 5, then

x-4 = 5-4 = 1

So for cases when x > 4, the |x-4| and x-4 are the same identical expression. Try out more values of x to compare the two outputs. I recommend making a table with 3 columns. You'll have x in column 1, then |x-4| in column 2, and x-4 in column 3. You should find that the outputs for columns 2 and 3 are identical when x is larger than 4.

It's only when x < 4 is when |x-4| and x-4 differ. Instead we would say |x-4| = -(x-4). But we aren't focused on this case.

In short, when x > 4, we simply drop the absolute value bars to get the answer  x - 4

6. a) $4.05, b) $6.75, c) $10.80

7. a) $14.85, b) $24.75, c) $39.60

Explanations:

Whatever we multiply the item by, we multiply the cost by. If we double the number of socks, we double the price. If we triple the number of socks, we triple the price.

1. a) 3 costs $12, and 3 x 2 = 6, so we do the same to the price: $12 x 2 = $24

b) 3 times 3 is 9, so 3 x 12 gives you that cost, $36

c) 3 x 4 = 12, so 12 x 4 = $48

2. a) 3 pairs is $9, and we need 6 pairs. 3 x 2 = 6, so we also multiply the price x 2 = $18

b) 3 x 3 = 9 pairs, multiply the cost times 3 as well. 9 x 3 = $27

c) 3 x 4 = 12, multiply the cost x 4. 9 x 4 = 36

3. 4 apples cost $0.82

a) 4 x 2 = 8 apples, $0.82 x 2 = $1.64

b) 4 x 3 = 12 apples, $0.82 x 3 = $2.46

c) 4 x 4 = 16 apples, $0.82 x 4 = $3.28

Which symbol correctly compares the two angles? pi 3 \ 60^

Answers

Answer: =

Step-by-step explanation: just took the test

We will see that both angles are actually the same one (but in different units) so the symbol that we need to use is the equal symbol.

Which symbol correctly compares the two angles?

Here we have two angles, one in degrees and  the other in radians, we want to compare them. To do it, we will need to write both of the angles in the same units.

The angles are:

pi/3 rads

60°

First, remember that:

pi rads = 180°

1 rad = (180°/pi)

With this, we can change the units of the first angle to get:

pi/3 rads = pi/3*(180°/pi) = 180°/3 = 60°

So both angles are actually the same angle, then the symbol that correctly compares them is the equal symbol.

pi/3 rads = 60°

Five candy bars and two cupcakes cost $12. Three candy bars and three cupcakes cost $11.25. Find the cost of each item

Answers

Answer:

$23.25

Step-by-step explanation:

12+11.25

Answer:

candy bars = a

cupcakes = b

a=1.5$

b=2.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

candy bars = a

cupcakes = b

1)5a+2b = 12

2)3a + 3b = 11.25

We can understand

3a + 3b = 3(a+b)= 11.25

a+b = 11.25÷3 = 3.75

from No.2 equation.

than we do

(5a+2b) - 2(a+b)

and we got 3a

so

12 - 7.5 = 4.5 = 3a

The rate at which a chemical decomposes is increasing at a continuous 6.6 % % . What is the actual hourly percent increase

Answers

Answer:

the actual hourly percent increase is 6.823 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that data in the question;

rate chemical decomposes increasing continuously at 6.6 %,

r = 6.6% = 0.066

actual hourly percent increase = ?

Now,

hourly percent increase = ( [tex]e^r[/tex] - 1 ) × 100%

we substitute

hourly percent increase = ( [tex]e^{0.066[/tex] - 1 ) × 100%

hourly percent increase = ( 1.06823 - 1 ) × 100%

hourly percent increase = 0.06823 × 100%

hourly percent increase = 6.823 %

Therefore, the actual hourly percent increase is 6.823 %
