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

What are the possible steps involved in solving the equation shown? Select three options. 3.5 + 1.2(6.3 – 7x) = 9.38 Add 3.5 and
motikmotik

Answer:

1) Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x

2)Combine 3.5 and 7.56

3)Subtract 11.06 from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5 + 1.2(6.3 - 7x) = 9.38

Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x

3.5 + 1.2* 6.3 - 1.2 * 7x = 9.38

        3.5 + 7.56 - 8.4x = 9.38

Combine 3.5 and 7.56

11.06 - 8.4x = 9.38

Subtract 11.06 from both sides

11.06 - 8.4x -11.06 = 9.38 - 11.06

                    -8.4x = -1.68

To find solution:

Divide both sides by (-8.4)

-8.4x/-8.4 = -1.68/-8.4

 x = 0.02

What the answer is and how?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

PerimeterFigure= pi*DIameter/2= 1.5*pi ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of the figure, since we are dealing with an semi-circle, we can use the perimeter equation for a full circle and divide it by half.

Perimeter= 2pi*R= pi*Diameter.

Since Our figure is a semi circle, as we say earlier, we now will divide the above result by half.

PerimeterFigure= pi*DIameter/2= 1.5*pi ft.
