Grades on a standardized test are known to have a mean of 1000 for students in the United States. The test is administered to 45

3 randomly selected students in Florida; in this sample, the mean is 1013, and the standard deviation (s) is 108. a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the average test score for students in Florida. b. Is there statistically significant evidence that students in Florida perform differently from other students in the United States

Answer:

a

The 95% confidence interval is 1003  <  \mu

b

Yes there is statistically significant evidence that students in Florida perform differently from other students in the United States

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  \mu =  1000

   The sample size is  n =  453

   The sample mean is  \= x  = 1013

    The standard deviation is s =  108

   

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

            \alpha  =  100 - 95

=>         \alpha  =  5\%

=>          \alpha  = 0.05

The critical value  for \frac{\alpha }{2} obtained from the normal distribution table is          

          Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

         E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

=>     E =  1.96 *  \frac{108}{\sqrt{453} }

=>      E = 9.946

Generally the 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

           \= x  - E  <  \mu <  \= x + E

=>         1013  - 9.946  <  \mu < 1013  + 9.946

=>         1003  <  \mu

Given that the population mean(1000) is not within the 95% confidence interval for l for the average test score for students in Florida, then it means that there is statistically significant evidence that students in Florida perform differently from other students in the United States

Answer:

\text{A) }68\:\mathrm{cm}

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a polygon is equal to the sum of all the sides of the polygon. Quadrilateral PTOS consists of sides TP, SP, TO, and SO.

Since TO and SO are both radii of the circle, they must be equal. Thus, since TO is given as 10 cm, SO will also be 10 cm.

To find TP and SP, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. Since they are tangents, they intersect the circle at a 90^{\circ}, creating right triangles \triangle TOP and \triangle SOP.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the following is true for any right triangle:

a^2+b^2=c^2, where c is the hypotenuse, or the longest side, of the triangle

Thus, we have:

10^2+TP^2=26^2,\\TP^2=26^2-10^2,\\TP^2=\sqrt{576},\\TP=24

Since both TP and SP are tangents of the circle and extend to the same point P, they will be equal.

What we know:

  • TP=SP=24
  • TO=SO=10

Thus, the perimeter of the quadrilateral PTOS is equal to 24+24+10+10=\boxed{\text{A) }68\:\mathrm{cm}}
