Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is X: flexural strength of concrete beams.

Data:

7.3 6.8 8.6 9.7 11.6 9.7 6.8 7.7 11.8 7.4 8.1 8.7 6.3 7.9 7.0 7.9 7.8 6.5 6.3 7.0 7.5 7.7 7.2 11.3 9.0 10.7 5.1

a.

The point estimate of the mean value is the sample mean. You calculate it using the following formula:

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 219.40/27= 8.1259≅ 8.13

b)x

b.

The point estimate that divides the sample in 50%-50% is the measure of central tendency called Median(Me).

To reach the median you have to calculate it's position (PosMe)

For uneven samples PosMe= (n+1)/2= (27+1)/2= 14 ⇒ This means that the Median is the 14th observation of the data set.

So next is to order the data from lower to heighest and identify the value in the 14th position:

5,1 ; 6,3; 6,3; 6,5 ; 6,8; 6,8; 7; 7; 7,2; 7,3; 7,4 ; 7,5 ; 7,7 ; 7,7 ; 7,8 ; 7,9 ; 7,9 ; 8,1 ; 8,6 ; 8,7 ; 9 ; 9,7 ; 9,7 ; 10,7 ; 11,3 ; 11,6 ; 11,8

Me= 7.7

d) x tilde

c.

The point estimate of the population standard deviation is the sample standard deviation. The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so the first step is to calculate the sample variance:

S^2= \frac{1}{n-1}*[sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} ]

∑X²= 1858.92

S^2= \frac{1}{26}*[1858.92-\frac{219.40^2}{27} ] = 2.926

S= √2.926= 1.71

The standard deviation is a measurement of variability, it shows how to disperse the data is concerning the sample mean.

d. This estimate describes the spread of the data.

I hope it helps!

Suppose you answered 19 questions correctly on a test. If this is 95% of the questions, how many questions were in the test?
zzz [600]
It is 20.
1st: set up a proportion. --> 95/100=19/x
2nd: cross multiply. --> 95 times x=95x. 100 times 19=1900.
3rd: divide 1900 by 95. --> 1900÷95=20
There you go! Your answer is 20

A football player ran the ball for 40 yards, 45 yards, 48 yards, 52 yards, and 105 yards. What is the outlier?
Vinil7 [7]
An outlier is a value that is much higher or much lower than the rest of the values in the data set.

The answer here is 105 because it is nearly double all other values.
65 is incorrect because it's not even a value in the data set.

WHAT IS 14 to 35 simplest form
IRINA_888 [86]
If you mean 14/35 then it is 2/5. 14 and 35 are both divisible by 7 so 14 devided by 7 is 2 and 35 divided by 7 is 5
