Steve wants to know what the average ACT scores of students graduated from his high school is. He randomly selected 25 students

from an email list and asked them to provide the information. Of them 20 students replied and the summary of the ACT score is as below: Sample size Mean STD Min Max 20 21.5 5.7 15 26 (1) What is the sample of the study and what is the population of the study? (2) Steve is told that the population standard deviation for ACT score is 4.6 for his high school, estimate the population average ACT score of his high school graduates with 86% confidence level. (3) If the population standard deviation is not provided, estimate the population average ACT score of his high school graduates with 95% confidence level.

Answer:

[a]. sample is 25 randomly selected students

    also population is all students

[b]. (20.0, 23.0)

[c]. (8.8, 24.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

here is a step by step process to solving this, i hope you find this helpful.

1). The population is all students who graduated from his school  while the

sample is 25 randomly selected students from the email list

2). given alpha = 1-0.86=0.14

critical z value(two tailed) for 86% confidence level is:

z=normsinv(0.07) or normsinv(0.93)=1.476

Margin of error=1.476*(4.6/SQRT(20))=1.5

86% confidence interval for population mean

=21.5+/-1.5

=(20.0, 23.0)

3). if population standard deviation is not known,we will use t distribution.

df=20-1=19

t*=tinv(0.05,19)=2.093

Margin of error=2.093*(5.7/sqrt(20))=2.7

95% confidence interval for population mean

=21.5+/-2.7

=(18.8, 24.2)

cheers i hope this helps!!!!

For the first, simply plug in the value of x given (x = 2) into the equation: \left\frac{3}{4}x^2 + 5\right.|_{x=2} = \frac{3}{4}\left ( 2^2 \right )+5 = 8.

So, 8 would be your answer.

For the second, the sum of x and 2 would be expressed as x + 2. Twice this sum would be written as 2(x+2). Finally, 8 less than twice that sum would be written as 2(x+2) - 8, which would be your expression.

For the last question, the coefficient refers to the number directly in front of the variable, x. So you need only to check what the x would simplify to in each equation and look for the expression where x has no coefficient (i.e., its coefficient is 1). For Hunter, the coefficient would be 15 (5 × 3x = 15x); for Michael, the coefficient would be 11 (6x + 5x = 11x); for Nate, the coefficient would be 1 (x = 1x); and for Spencer, the coefficient would be 2 (2x = 2x). Thus, Nate's expression has a coefficient of 1 when simplified.

Answer:

-q

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that we are trying to find an expression equivelant to p - q:

p - q can be p - 1q

We can then put parenthesis around -1q:

p + (-1q)

We then can simplify:

p + (-q)

A pitcher of lemonade in Manny's refrigerator was full in the morning. In the afternoon, he drank two glasses of lemonade. Each
Snezhnost [94]
To find how much lemonade the pitcher can hold, you will add the amounts that he drank and remained to get a total.  This total would be the starting amount.

8 oz + 8 oz + 24 oz = 40 ounces

The pitcher originally held 40 ounces of lemonade.
