Answer: a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Mean height = 174.5 cm
Standard deviation = 6.9 cm
n = 50
we need to find the 98% confidence interval.
So, z = 2.326
(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.
(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?
Error would be
Hence, a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
I answered a similar question for someone else. The absolute value of a complex number is called the modulus. This represents the DISTANCE to the origin from the point on the imaginary + real plane.
the real horizontal distance is 5 and the imaginary vertical distance is in this case 4 (from -4i) the distance is 4. So to figure out this just use the Pythagorean theorem.
5^2 + (4)^2 = c^2
25 +16 = c^2
c^2 = 41c = 6.4 So option D.
A) There are a number of ways to compute the determinant of a 3x3 matrix. Since k is on the bottom row, it is convenient to compute the cofactors of the numbers on the bottom row. Then the determinant is ...
1×(2×-1 -3×1) -k×(3×-1 -2×1) +2×(3×3 -2×2) = 5 -5k
bi) Π₁ can be written using r = (x, y, z).
Π₁ ⇒ 3x +2y +z = 4
bii) The cross product of the coefficients of λ and μ will give the normal to the plane. The dot-product of that with the constant vector will give the desired constant.
Π₂ ⇒ ((1, 0, 2)×(1, -1, -1))•(x, y, z) = ((1, 0, 2)×(1, -1, -1))•(1, 2, 3)
Π₂ ⇒ 2x +3y -z = 5
c) If the three planes form a sheath, the ranks of their coefficient matrix and that of the augmented matrix must be 2. That is, the determinant must be zero. The value of k that makes the determinant zero is found in part (a) to be -1.
A common approach to determining the rank of a matrix is to reduce it to row echelon form. Then the number of independent rows becomes obvious. (It is the number of non-zero rows.) This form for k=-1 is shown in the picture.
Answer: 0.475 cups of broth per serving.Explanation:1) Ratio given: i) To facilitate the operations, transform the mixed number 4 3/4 cups into improper fraction:
4 + 3/4 = [16 + 3] / 4 = 19 / 4
ii) ratio broth: servings
2) Proportion with the unknown number of cups of broth per serving:
3) Solve for the unknown:x = [19 / 4] cups × 1 serving / 10 servings = 19 / 40 cups = 0.475 cups
4b + 22 = 5 (b + 4) - 1 (remove the parantheses)
4b + 22 = 5b + 20 - 1 (calculate)
4b + 22 = 5b + 19 (move the terms)
4b - 5b = 19 - 22 (collect like terms and calculate)
-b = -3 (change the signs)
<em>b = 3</em>
