Given:
A has coordinates (-6,5)
C has coordinates (3.6,-0.4).
C divides AB in the ratio 3:2.

Refer to the diagram shown below.
The coordinates of B are determined by
\frac{3.6-(-6)}{x-(-6)} = \frac{3}{3+2} \\ \frac{9.6}{x+6} = \frac{3}{5} \\ 3(x+6) = 48 \\ 3x +18=48 \\ x=30/3=10
Also,
\frac{5-(-0.4)}{5-y} = \frac{3}{5} \\ 3(5-y) = 27 \\ 15-3y=27 \\ y= \frac{12}{-3} =-4

Answer:
The coordinates of B are (10,-4).

Now, we know the coordinates of line segment AB as A (-6, 5) and B (10,-4).
D (x,y) divides AB in the ratio 4:5.
Therefore
\frac{x-(-6)}{10-(-6)} = \frac{4}{4+5} \\ \frac{x+6}{16} = \frac{4}{9} \\ 9(x+6)=64 \\ 9x+54=64 \\ x=1.11
Also,
\frac{5-y}{5-(-4)} = \frac{4}{9}  \\ 5-y = 4 \\ y = 1

Answer:
The coordinates of D are (1.11, 1)

We wish to give a 90% confidence interval for the mean value of a normally distributed random variable. We obtain a simple rando
coldgirl [10]

Answer: (9.27025,\ 11.12975)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size : n= 9

Degree of freedom = df =n-1 =8

Sample mean : \overline{x}=10.2

sample standard deviation : s= 1.5

Significance level ; \alpha= 1-0.90=0.10

Since population standard deviation is not given , so we use t- test.

Using t-distribution table , we have

Critical value = t_{\alpha/2, df}=t_{0.05 , 8}=1.8595

Confidence interval for the population mean :

\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2, df}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

90% confidence interval for the mean value will be :

10.2\pm (1.8595)\dfrac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}

10.2\pm (1.8595)\dfrac{1.5}{3}

10.2\pm (1.8595)(0.5)

10.2\pm (0.92975)

(10.2-0.92975,\ 10.2+0.92975)

(9.27025,\ 11.12975)

Hence, the 90% confidence interval for the mean value= (9.27025,\ 11.12975)
