A study was conducted to determine the mean birth weight of a certain breed of kittens. Consider the birth weights of kittens to

be normally distributed. A sample of 45 kittens was randomly selected from all kittens of this breed at a large veterinary hospital. The birth weight of each kitten in the sample was recorded. The sample mean was 3.56 ounces, and the sample standard deviation was 0.2 ounces. What is the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval on the mean birth weight of all kittens of this breed.

1) Call x the sample mean = 3.56

2) Call s the sample standard deviation = 0.2

3) Given that the variable is normally distributed and the sample is large, you determine the interval of confidence from:

x +/- Z(0.5) s/√n

Wehre Z(0.5) is the value of the probabilities over 5% (90% of confidence mean to subtract 10%, which is 5% for each side (tails) of the normal distribuition) and is taken from tables.

Z(0.5) = 0.3085

Then the inteval is

x +/- 0.385 *s /√n = 3.56 +/- 0.385 * 0.2/√45

3.56 +/- 0.011 = ( 3.549, 3.571). This is the answer.

The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is 3/2, what is the slope of the red line​?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slopes have lines that multiply to -1

m* 3/2 = -1

Multiply each side by 2/3

m* 3/2 * 2/3 = -1 * 2/3

m = -2/3

The slope of the perpendicular line is -2/3

Can you answer these please! I really need help! And I'm so not even joking only 16 17 18 and 19
frozen [14]
16.) 38.25= 4.25h
divide by 4.25 on both sides
       h=9
17.)214= 1/3x
divide by 1/3 on both sides
x= 642
18.)70= 2x
divide by 2 on both sides
x=35
19.)18.69= 5.25+1.68x
subtract 5.25 on both sides
13.44=1.68x
divide by 1.68 on both sides
x=8

Travka [436]
We are asked to simplify the ratio of 34 laptops out of 116 computers into the simplest form. The greatest common factor is 2. hence, we divide each number by 2. 34 divided by 2 is equal to 17 while 116 divided by to is equal to 58. Hence the answer to this problem is b. 17 <span>laptops : 58 computers. </span>
