Answer:

y - 10 = 2(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall this:  The slope of a new line perpendicular to a given line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Thus:  The slope of the new line is the negative reciprocal of (-1/2), or +2.

Using the point-slope formula for the equation of a line,

y - k = m(x - h)

becomes

y - 10 = 2(x - 4)

This could also be written as y = 2x - 8 + 10, or y = 2x + 2

In this exercise, we are conducting many hypothesis tests to test a claim. Assume that the null hypothesis is true. If 400 tests
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Since the null hypothesis is true, finding the significance is a type I error.

The probability of the year I error = level of significance = 0.05.

so, the number of tests that will be incorrectly found significant is computed as follow: 0.05 * 100 = 5

Therefore, 5 tests will be incorrectly found significant given that the null hypothesis is true.

The mayor is interested in finding a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of pounds of trash per person per week that is
saul85 [17]

Solution :

Given :

Sample mean, $\overline X = 34.2$

Sample size, n = 129

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.2

a. Since the population standard deviation is unknown, therefore, we use the t-distribution.

b. Now for 95% confidence level,

   α = 0.05, α/2 = 0.025

  From the t tables, T.INV.2T(α, degree of freedom), we find the t value as

  t =T.INV.2T(0.05, 128) = 2.34

  Taking the positive value of t, we get  

  Confidence interval is ,

  $\overline X \pm t \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

 $34.2 \pm 2.34 \times \frac{8.2}{\sqrt {129}}$

 (32.52, 35.8)

 95% confidence interval is  (32.52, 35.8)

So with $95 \%$ confidence of the population of the mean number of the pounds per person per week is between 32.52 pounds and 35.8 pounds.

c. About $95 \%$ of confidence intervals which contains the true population of mean number of the pounds of the trash that is generated per person per week and about $5 \%$ that doe not contain the true population of mean number of the pounds of trashes generated by per person per week.

What is the absolute value of -250?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty much every time it asks for the abasloute value it just asks how much to get the zero on the number line. It will ALWAYS be positive. For example -5 will be 5 to get to zero on the numberline. Same thing with a positive 5.
