GCF means greatest common factor and LCM means Least common multiple. 
pogonyaev3 years ago

GCF is greatest common factor, for example the GCF of 4 (1, 2, 4) and 12 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12) is for because that is the biggest factor they have in common.

LCM is lowest common multiple, for example the LCM of 4 (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, etc.) and 12 (12, 24, 36, 48, 60, etc.) is 12 because that is the smallest multiple they have in common.

You really need to know the difference between a factor and a multiple to understand it.

Hope this helps. :)

A student wanted to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean age of students in her statistics class. She randomly selec
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

19.1-3.355\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}=17.42    

19.1+3.355\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}=20.78    

And the best option would be:

C. [17.42,20.78]

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=19.1 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=1.5 represent the sample standard deviation

n=9 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

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

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=9-1=8

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of \alpha=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.005,8)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=

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

19.1-3.355\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}=17.42    

19.1+3.355\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}=20.78    

And the best option would be:

C. [17.42,20.78]

The accompanying data contains the depth​ (in kilometers) and​ magnitude, measured using the Richter​ Scale, of all earthquakes
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Depth:

μ =20.2025 km

M = 15.625 km

Range = 47.15 km

σ ≈ 15.92 km

Q₁ = 5.7375 km

Q₃ =  34.6675 km

Magnitude:

μ = 2.08375

M = 1.465

Range, R = 5.17

σ = 1.801485 ≈ 1.8

Q₁ = 0.5625

Q₃ = 3.925

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data are;

Depth {}                                 Magnitude

0.76 {}                                    0.84

4.93 {}                                    0.47

8.16 {}                                     0.35

33.58 {}                                  1.32

21.2 {}                                     1.61

35.03 {}                                  4.57

10.05 {}                                   5.52

47.91 {}                                    1.99

For the Depth, we have;

The mean, μ = (0.76+4.93+8.16+33.58+21.2+35.03+10.05+47.91)/8 =20.2025 km

The median, M = The (n + 1)/2th term after arranging the term in increasing order as follows;

0.76, 4.93, 8.16, 10.05, 21.2, 33.58, 35.03, 47.91 , the median is therefore;

(8 + 1)/2th term or the 4.5th term which is 10.05 + (21.2 - 10.05)/2 = 15.625 km

The Range = The highest - The lowest value = 47.91 - 0.76 = 47.15 km

The Standard deviation of, σ, is given as follows;

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum \left (x_i-\mu  \right )^{2} }{N}}

Where;

x_i = The individual data point = (0.76, 4.93, 8.16, 10.05, 21.2, 33.58, 35.03, 47.91 )

N = The total number of data point = 8

Substituting, (using Microsoft Excel) we get;

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum \left (x_i-20.2025  \right )^{2} }{8}} \approx 15.92 \ km

Q₁ = The first quartile = The (n + 1)/4th =  term arranged in increasing order

Q₁ = The (8 + 1)/4th term = The 2.25th term = 4.93 + (8.16 - 4.93)×0.25) = 5.7375 km

Q₃ = The first quartile = The 3×(n + 1)/4th =  term arranged in increasing order

Q₃ = The 3×(8 + 1)/4th term = The 6.75th term = 33.58 + 3×(35.03 - 33.58)×0.25) = 34.6675 km

For the magnitude, we have, using the same formulas and procedures as above;

μ = 2.08375

M = 1.465

Range, R = 5.17

σ = 1.801485 ≈ 1.8

Q₁ = 0.5625

Q₃ = 3.925

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 9 15's in 120 which means its going by 15's 3 x 5= 15 and if it says 6 that means its timesed by 2. 15 x 2= 30 then 30 x 10= 300
