Suppose that you are interested in determining the average height of a person in a large city. You begin by collecting the heigh

ts of a random sample of 256 people from the city. The average height of your sample is 64 inches, while the standard deviation of the heights in your sample is 4 inches.The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is .

The standard error of the estimate of average height in the city is 0.25.

Given average height 64 inches, sample mean and sample standard deviation of 4 inches.

We have to determine the standard error of the estimate of the average height in the city.

Standard error is the error which is predicted before research to happen in research. It is calculated by dividing the standard deviation of the sample by the square root of the sample size.

n=256

μ=mean

s = sample standard deviation

Standard error=s/\sqrt{n}

=4/\sqrt{256}

=4/16

=0.25

Hence the standard error of the estimate of the average height is 0.25.

Help please correct answer
ryzh [129]

Answer:

5/1

Step-by-step explanation:

Invert the denominator and multiply

10/9 * 9 / 2        

The 9s cancel and you are left with

10/2 = 5

So the answer is 5, but the format demands it be a fraction so the answer is 5/1

If a couple were planning to have three​ children, the sample space summarizing the gender outcomes would​ be: bbb,​ bbg, bgb,​
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

(a) The sample space is: S = {bb, bg, gb, gg}

(b) The probability that the couple has two girl children is 0.25.

(c) The probability that the couple has exactly 1 boy and 1 girl child is 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

A boy child is denoted by, <em>b</em>.

A girl child is denoted by, <em>g</em>.

(a)

A couple has two children.

The sample space for the possible gender of the two children are:

The couple can have two boys, two girls or 1 boy and 1 girl.

So the sample space is:

S = {bb, bg, gb, gg}

(b)

It is provided that the outcomes of the sample space <em>S</em> are equally likely, i.e. each outcome has the same probability of success.

Compute the probability that the couple has two girl children as follows:

P (2 Girls) = Favorable no. of outcomes ÷ Total no. of outcomes

                =\frac{1}{4} \\=0.25

Thus, the probability that the couple has two girl children is 0.25.

(c)

Compute the probability that the couple has exactly 1 boy and 1 girl child as follows:

P (1 boy & 1 girl) = Favorable no. of outcomes ÷ Total no. of outcomes

                          =\frac{2}{4} \\=0.50

Thus, the probability that the couple has exactly 1 boy and 1 girl child is 0.50.

Using the fractions 2/3 and 3/4 describe how to give two fractions common denominators
Contact [7]
One way is to find the prime factorization for the denominators which are 3 and 4. The prime factorization of 3 would be 1 x 3 and 4 would be 2 x 2. Since we only use prime numbers to find the prime factorization we would have 2 x 2 x 3 = 12 which give us the the least common denominator for 2/3 and 3/4. Final answer is 12.
