sample?

Answer:

mean = 77

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a confidence interval of (59, 95) with a confidence of  99.7 percent


99.7 is 6 standard deviations from the mean, 3 on each side of the mean

mean - 3 sigma = 59

mean + 3 sigma = 95

We can use elimination to eliminate sigma.  Add these equations together

mean - 3 sigma = 59

mean + 3 sigma = 95

---------------------------------

2 * mean = 154

Divide each side by 2

2 * mean/2 = 154/2

mean = 77

In a sample of 10 cards, 4 are red and 6 are blue. If 2 cards are selected at random from the sample, one at a time without repl

The exact answer in fraction from is 2/15

The approximate answer in decimal form is 0.1333 (rounded to four decimal places)

The decimal value 0.1333 is equivalent to 13.33%

These are three ways to say the same basic answer.

===============================================

Explanation:

We have 4 red cards and 6 blue cards giving 4+6 = 10 total.

The probability of picking not blue (aka picking red) is 4/10 because there are 4 red out of 10 total.

If we don't replace the card we picked, then we have 3 red left over out of 9 total. The probability of picking red again is 3/9

Multiply those fractions
(4/10)*(3/9) = (4*3)/(10*9) = 12/90

Now reduce
12/90 = (6*2)/(6*15) = 2/15
note how the GCF 6 cancels

Using a calculator, 
2/15 = 0.1333 approximately
The '3's after the decimal point go on forever.

So....
360*45=16,200

The answer is D. 16,200

Good luck with your studies, I hope this helps!!
