Answer:

Point Estimate for different between population means = - 0.99

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given data of two samples and we have to find the best point estimate of the true difference between two population means. Remember that in absence of data about population the best estimator is the sample data. So, we will find the means of both sample data and find the difference of that means. This difference between the means of sample data will be the best point estimate for the true difference between the population means.

Formula to calculate the mean is:

$Mean=\frac{\text{Sum of Values}}{\text{Number of Values}}$

Mean of Sample 1:

$Mean=\frac{1414}{11}=128.55$

Mean of Sample 2:

$Mean=\frac{1684}{13}=129.54$

Therefore the best point estimate for difference between two population means would be = Mean of Sample 1 - Mean of Sample 2

= 128.55 - 129.54

= - 0.99

The midpoint of AB is M (2,0). If the coordinates of A are, (-3, 3), what are the coordinates of B?

gregori [183]

Given:

M is the midpoint of AB.

M(2,0) and A(-3, 3).

To find:

The coordinates of point B.

Solution:

Midpoint formula:

$Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

Let the coordinates of point B are (a,b). Then, using the midpoint formula, we get

$(2,0)=\left(\dfrac{-3+a}{2},\dfrac{3+b}{2}\right)$

On comparing both sides, we get

$\dfrac{-3+a}{2}=2$

$-3+a=2\times 2$

$a=4+3$

$a=7$

And,

$\dfrac{3+b}{2}=0$

$3+b=0$

$3+b-3=0-3$

$b=-3$

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (7,-3).

Answer:

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

the "x" and "y" represent $\frac{rise}{run}$

so therefore, it's $\frac{-2}{-2}$ , $\frac{-1}{-1}$ , $\frac{1}{1}$ , $\frac{2}{2}$

you would start at (0,0) or the origin

and count over one and up one, or however many units the fraction/chart tells you to count up

IQ scores have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. What percentile corresponds to an IQ score of 115? Explain the step

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The percentile that corresponds to an IQ score of 115 is 34.13 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the percentile that corresponds to an IQ score of 115.

To calculate this percentile, we start with making observations. From the question, we are told that the mean score is 100 while the standard deviation is 15.

Now we want to find the percentile for a score if 115. For a score of 115, we can see that the difference between this score and the mean is 15 which is exactly equal to the standard deviation.

What this means is that the score is within +1 SD of the mean.

For a score of within +1 SD of the mean, the percentile is 34.13%

A score at the mean is the 50th percentile, a score which is 1 SD above or below the mean has a percentile value of 34.13%

Please, I will like you to check the attachment to see how percentiles are valued given the number of standard deviations a particular value is from the mean.

Which of the points given divide the line segment AB in the ratio 2:3?

alexira [117]

Answer: The correct answer is Choice D, (5, 7).

First, we need to identify the slope from A to B.
It will be -5/-5. In other words, to go from A to B, we move down 5 spaces and left 5 spaces.

If we are going to divide the segment, we are not going to move all 5 spaces in each direction.

Since we are looking for a 2:3 ratio, we are only moving 2 out of the total of 5 spaces. It is 2 over 5, because 2 + 3 makes a total of 5.

Therefore, we only move down 2 and left 2 spaces from Point A. That will put us at the point (5, 7).
