Answer:

all her patients patients with no cavities

patients younger than 18

every patient with braces

Step-by-step explanation:

when a sample is selected in a manner that some elements, in this case patients, of population have higher or lower probability of sampling then that sample is biased.

From given case, all the following are biased samples

all her patients patients with no cavities

patients younger than 18

every patient with braces

because they are non-random sample of a population in which all other elements were not equally likely to be chosen!

Determine the slope of the line with the following graph
Delicious77 [7]

Find the slope from a graph

Locate two points on the line whose coordinates are integers.

Starting with the point on the left, sketch a right triangle, going from the first point to the second point.

Count the rise and the run on the legs of the triangle.

Take the ratio of rise to run to find the slope. m=riserun.

Assume that the helium porosity of coal samples taken from any particular seam is Normally distributed with true standard deviat
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

a) 4.85-2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{20}}=4.46    

4.85+2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{20}}=5.24    

b) 4.56-2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{16}}=4.12    

4.56+2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{16}}=4.99  

c) n=(\frac{1.960(0.75)}{0.2})^2 =54.02 \approx 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

The Confidence is 0.98 or 98%, the value of \alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2 =0.01, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.01,0,1)".And we see that z_{\alpha/2}=2.33

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

4.85-2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{20}}=4.46    

4.85+2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{20}}=5.24    

Part b

4.56-2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{16}}=4.12    

4.56+2.33\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{16}}=4.99  

Part c  

The margin of error is given by this formula:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}    (a)

And on this case we have that ME =0.4/2 =0.2  we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2   (b)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.025;0;1)", and we got z_{\alpha/2}=1.960, replacing into formula (b) we got:

n=(\frac{1.960(0.75)}{0.2})^2 =54.02 \approx 55
