When rolling a single number cube, what are the odds, in simplest form, in favor of rolling a 4 or a 5?

Your body loses sodium when you sweat. Researchers sampled 38 random tennis players. The average sodium loss was 500 milligrams

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean loss in sodium in the population is between 474.10 milligrams and 525.90 milligrams. This means that we are 99% that the true mean loss in sodium in the population is between 474.10 milligrams and 525.90 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.005 = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 2.575*\frac{62}{\sqrt{38}} = 25.90$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 500 - 25.90 = 474.10 milligrams.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 500 + 25.90 = 525.90 milligrams

The 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean loss in sodium in the population is between 474.10 milligrams and 525.90 milligrams. This means that we are 99% that the true mean loss in sodium in the population is between 474.10 milligrams and 525.90 milligrams.

Write the equation of a line that includes the point (1, 5) and has a slope of 3 in slope-intercept form

Zina [86]

Answer:

y=3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

We have our m, which is slope, but we need our y intercept, b.

Substitute your slope, x, and y into the formula and solve for b.

5=3(1)+b

5=3+b
