Use the values on the number line to find the sampling error.

1 answer:

4 0

Part 1:

Given a number line with the point $\bar{x}=3.8$ and the point $\mu=4.27$

The sampling error is given by:

$\bar{x}-\mu=3.8-4.27=-0.47$

Part 2:

Given a number line with the point $\bar{x}=26.43$ and the point $\mu=24.67$

The sampling error is given by:

$\bar{x}-\mu=26.43-24.67=1.76$

Which equation represents a line that passes through (2, - 1/2) and has a slope of 4 ?

solmaris [256]

Answer:

y=4x-8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point- slope form, since you are given one point and one slope.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Plug coordinates and slope in.

y-(-1/2)=4(x-2)

Solve

y+1/2=4x-8

y=4x-8.5

A certain city's population is 120,000 and decreases 1.4% per year for 15 years.

mart [117]

Answer:

Decay Problem.

Decay rate, r = 0.014
Initial Amount =120,000

$P(t)=120000(0.986)^t$
P(10)=104,220

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function for growth/decay is given as:

$P(t)=P_0(1 \pm r)^t, where:\\P_0$ is the Initial Population\\r is the growth/decay rate\\t is time$

In this problem:

The city's initial population is 120,000 and it decreases by 1.4% per year.

Since the population decreases, it is a Decay Problem.

Decay rate, r=1.4% =0.014
Initial Amount =120,000

Therefore, the function is:

$P(t)=120000(1 - 0.014)^t\\P(t)=120000(0.986)^t$

When t=10 years

$P(10)=120000(0.986)^10\\=104219.8\\\approx 104220 $ (to the nearest whole number)$

B.)

{(2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (4,4), (5,2), (5,4), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space :

Die roll, then number of coin tosses based on the outcome of the die roll, then number of heada from the toss(es) is recorded along with the outcome of the die roll.

{(1, 0), (1, 1), (2,0), (2,1), (2, 2), (3,0), (3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (4, 0), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (5,0), (5,1),(5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (6,0), (6,1),(6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)}

Event that the total number of head is even:

{(2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (4,4), (5,2), (5,4), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)}

Find the x-intercept of the parabola of with vertex (1,20) and the y-intercept (0,16). write your answer in this form: (x1,y1),(

svetoff [14.1K]

I assume that the parabola in this particular problem is one whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y axis. The formula we're going to use in this case is (x-h)2=4p(y-k). We know variables h and k from the vertex (1,20) but p is not given. However, we can solve for p by substituting values x and y in the formula with the y-intercept:

(0-1)^2=4p(16-20)

Solving for p, p=-1/16.

Going back to the formula, we can finally solve for the x-intercepts. Simply fill in variables p, h and k then set y to zero:

(x-1)^2=4(-1/16)(0-20)
(x-1)^2=5
x-1=(+-)sqrt(5)
x=(+-)sqrt(5)+1

Here, we have two values of x

x=sqrt(5)+1 and
x=-sqrt(5)+1

thus, the answers are: (sqrt(5)+1,0) and (-sqrt(5)+1,0).
