A manager of a grocery store wants to determine if consumers are spending

Mathematics

Answer:

1. The error in the assumption is taking the sample mean, \bar x, as being equal to the population mean, μ

2. To correct the error, the manager will need to generate the confidence interval based on the population standard deviation on the acceptable values of the mean using the following relation;

CI=\bar{x}\pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that from the central limit theorem as the size of the sample, n, becomes more and more larger, the mean of the sample, \bar x, approaches that of the population mean, μ, therefore as the grocery store manager uses the sample mean as the population mean's point estimate an error will be observed based on the size of the sample compared to the population, where the difference between the two means (the population mean and the sample mean) is \left | \bar{x} - \mu \right |

1. The error in the assumption is taking the sample mean, \bar x, as being equal to the population mean, μ

2. To correct the error, the manager will need to generate the confidence interval based on the population standard deviation on the acceptable values of the mean using the following relation;

CI=\bar{x}\pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Where:

σ = Population standard deviation = $30

z = z value at 95% confidence level = 1.96

\bar x = Sample mean $160

n = Sample size = 10

Plugging in the values, we have;

$141.4 < \bar x < $178.6

Hence the expected value of the mean should be between $141.4 and $178.6.

What equation represents a circle whose center is located at (-6,2) and whose radius is 10 units?
Anna [14]
One of the equations for a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² where (h, k) are the center and r is the radius.
So after substitution:
(x + 6)² + (y - 2)² = 100

Notice the equation has the opposite of h and k and 100 is the result of squaring 10.

Jake thinks that a rhombus is not always a parallelogram.Is jake correct?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

No, a rhombus is a quadrilateral, with four equal-length sides and opposite sides parallel to each other. All rhombuses are parallelograms, but not all parallelograms are rhombuses. The opposite interior angles of rhombuses are always congruent. A parallelogram is just a four sided closed shape where opposite sides are parallel.

I hope this helps!

Find the measure of &lt;1
Dmitry [639]

Consider the triangle (<em>in </em><em>which </em><em>angle</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>present</em>)

by angle sum property,

20 + 40 + angle4 = 180

60 + angle4 = 180

angle4 = 180 - 60

angle4 = 120

Also,

angle2 = 120 (vertically opposite angles)

angle1 + angle2 = 180 (linear pair)

angle1 + 120 = 180

angle1 = 180 - 120

angle1 = 60
