Is a measure of 25 inches​ "far away" from a mean of 16 ​inches? As someone with knowledge of​ statistics, you answer​ "it depen

ds" and request the standard deviation of the underlying data. ​(a) Suppose the data come from a sample whose standard deviation is 3 inches. How many standard deviations is 25 inches from 16 ​inches? ​(b) Is 25 inches far away from a mean of 16 ​inches? ​(c) Suppose the standard deviation of the underlying data is 7 inches. Is 25 inches far away from a mean of 16 ​inches?

Answer:

a) 25 is 3 standard deviation from the mean

b) Is far away from the mean, only 0,3 % away from the right tail

c) 25 is pretty close to the mean (just a little farther from 1 standard deviation)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a Normal Distribution with mean 16 in.

Case a) we also have a standard deviation of 3 inches

3* 3 = 9  

16 (the mean) plus 3*σ  equal 25 in. the evaluated value, then the value is 3 standard deviation from the mean

Case b) 25 is in the range of 99,7 % of all value, we can say that value is far away from the mean, considering that is only 0,3 % away from the right tail

Case c) If the standard deviation is 7 then

mean + 1*σ  =  16 + 7 =23

25> 23

25 is pretty close to the mean only something more than 1 standard deviation

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Permutation is used.

No. of arrangements = 1260

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation is used for choosing & arrangement of  'r' out of 'n' objects, when sequence is important.

Total no. of alphabets in CORRECT = 7

C is repeated twice, R is repeated twice

So, Total No. of arrangements =   <u>7 !</u>

                                                   (2!)(2!)

= 5040 / 4

= 1260

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are called independent, when

P(B|A)=P(B),

where P(B|A) is the probability that B occurs given that A has already occurred.

A = randomly selected person is a student

B = randomly selected person prefer "Vikings"

B|A = randomly selected student prefer "Vikings"

Probabilities:

P(A)=\dfrac{100}{125}=\dfrac{4}{5}=0.8\\ \\P(B|A)=\dfrac{80}{85}=\dfrac{16}{17}\approx 0.94

Since

0.80\neq 0.94

we can state that events are not independent.
