Find the z-scores that bound the middle 74% of the area under the standard normal curve.

Since 74% of the middle area is bounded, this means that there is 13% on the left side, and another 13% on the right side.

P (left) = 0.13

P (right ) = 1 - 0.13 = 0.87

 

At this P values, the z scores are approximately:

z score (left) = -2.22

<span>z score (right) = 1.13</span>

A cookie factory monitored the number of broken cookies per pack yesterday.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Confidence Interval - 2.290 < S < 2.965

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

A chocolate chip cookie manufacturing company recorded the number of chocolate chips in a sample of 50 cookies. The mean is 23.33 and the standard deviation is 2.6. Construct a 80% confidence interval estimate of the standard deviation of the numbers of chocolate chips in all such cookies.

Solution

Given  

n=50

x=23.33

s=2.6

Alpha = 1-0.80 = 0.20  

X^2(a/2,n-1) = X^2(0.10, 49) = 63.17

sqrt(63.17) = 7.948

X^2(1 - a/2,n-1) = X^2(0.90, 49) = 37.69

sqrt(37.69) = 6.139

s*sqrt(n-1) = 18.2

s\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{X^2 _{(n-1), \frac{\alpha }{2} } } \leq \sigma \leq s\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{X^2 _{(n-1), 1-\frac{\alpha }{2} } }

confidence interval:

(18.2/7.948) < S < (18.2/6.139)

2.290 < S < 2.965

What is the perimeter of the polygon? Do not round any side lengths. Please help me.
DanielleElmas [232]

The easiest way to do this is to plot the points. I used the pythagorean theorem for this one, too. Add the side lengths to get the perimeter: 5 + 5 + 5 + 3 + √40 = 24.32455532 units or just 24 units.

Let f be the function given by f(x)= (x-1)(x^2-4)/x^2-a. For what positive values of a is f continuous for all real numbers x?
9966 [12]

Answer:

a =1 and a=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is

f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-a}

If we want f(x) to be continuous the denominator needs to be different to 0, otherwise f(x) will be indeterminate.

Now, for a a positive real we have that x=\sqrt{a} will annulate the denominator, i.e

(\sqrt{a})^2-a = a-a = 0. But, if a = 1 we have:

f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-1} = \frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{(x-1)(x+1)}=\frac{(x^2-4)}{x+1}

so, the value x=\sqrt{a} = \sqrt{1} = 1 won't annulate the denominator.

Now, for a = 4 we have:

f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-4} = x-1

so, the value x=\sqrt{a} = \sqrt{4} = 2 won't annulate the denominator.

In conclusion, for a=1 or a=1, the function will be continuos for all real numbers, since the denominator will never be 0.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

56.44 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

          sin(measure of the angle)=10/12

sin^-1(sin(measure of the angle))=sin^-1(10/12)

                 measure of the angle=56.44
