A random sample of 18 graduates of a certain secretarial school typed an average of 80.6 words per minute with a standard deviat

ion of 7.2 words per minute. Assuming a normal distribution for the number of words typed per​ minute, compute the 95​% prediction interval for the next observed number of words per minute typed by a graduate of the secretarial school.

Answer: ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Therefore at 95% confidence/prediction interval is

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 80.6 words per minute

Standard deviation r = 7.2

Number of samples n = 18

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

80.6+/-1.96(7.2/√18)

80.6+/-1.96(1.697056274847)

80.6 +/- 3.33

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Therefore at 95% confidence/prediction interval is

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Suppose a study of population 400,000 has been growing at rate of 7% per year if this rate continues find the population of this
inessss [21]

Answer:

680,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Population before growing rate: 400,000

Growing rate: 7%

Duration: 10 years

___

First, you will have to calculate how much does the population increase each year with the said rate, so you will have to multiply the rate by the population to determine that amount.

400,000 x 7/100 = 28,000

So the population increases by 28,000 each year, now you will have to multiply that amount by the amount of years to determine how much the amount of increase.

28,000 x 10 = 280,000

This means that the population has increased by 280,000 in these 10 years. Finally, you will have to add that number to the population amount to get the answer.

400,000 + 280,000 = 680,000

If sinx=2cosx then, what is the value of sin2x?
Travka [436]
          sin(x) = 2cos(x)
         tan(x) = 2
tan⁻¹[tan(x)] = tan⁻¹(2)
                x ≈ 63.4

sin(2x) = sin[2(63.4)]
sin(2x) = sin(126.8)
sin(2x) ≈ 0.801
