K = -48

1. subtract 5 from both sides
-4 = k/12

2. multiply 12 from both sides to get k alone
-48 = k

What is the effect on the graph of y=-2x+7 if the slope changes to 2

Tatiana [17]

In y=-2x+7 the graph will rise from right to left while in y=2x+7 the graph will rise from left to right. Which gives us in conclusion of the slope is negative the graph line will rise from right to left and if positive then left to right

A laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighings. Scale readings in repeated we

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

99% confidence interval for the given specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighing. Scale readings in repeated weighing are Normally distributed with mean equal to the true weight of the specimen.

Three weighing of a specimen on this scale give 3.412, 3.416, and 3.414 g.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the true mean specimen is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean weighing of specimen = $\frac{3.412+3.416+3.414}{3}$ = 3.414 g

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 0.001 g

n = sample of specimen = 3

$\mu$ = population mean

<em>Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used z statistics because we know about population standard deviation (sigma).</em>

So, 99% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.5758 < N(0,1) < 2.5758) = 0.99 {As the critical value of z at 0.5% level

of significance are -2.5758 & 2.5758}

P(-2.5758 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.5758) = 0.99

P( $-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

P( $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

<u>99% confidence interval for</u> $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $3.414-2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ , $3.414+2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ ]

= [3.4125 , 3.4155]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for this specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].
