Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract mixed fractions, you need to first trun them into improper fractions.

$2\frac{1}{8} =\frac{17}{8}$

$1\frac{7}{8} =\frac{15}{8}$

$\frac{17}{8} -\frac{15}{8} =\frac{2}{8} =\frac{1}{4}$

Random samples of size 64 are taken from an infinite population whose mean and standard deviation are 24 and 6.4, respectively.

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Mean 24, standard error 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation, also called standard error $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 24, \sigma = 6.4, n = 64$

What are the mean and the standard error of the sample mean?

By the Central Limit Theorem, mean 24 and standard error $s = \frac{6.4}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.8$

Answer the question and get Brainly, A sail for a boat is in the shape of a right Tiangle. The longest side is 20 ft. long. One

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is D.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

The rule of a triangle is that it the other two sides could not be longer than longest side of the triangle. If the two sides added up together is greater than the longest side, the triangle would no longer be connected. Since 8 + 12 ft still works for the longest side of the triangle, it will be considered the length of the third side.
