Answer:

Se=1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error is the standard deviation of a sample population. "It measures the accuracy with which a sample represents a population".

The central limit theorem (CLT) states "that the distribution of sample means approximates a normal distribution, as the sample size becomes larger, assuming that all samples are identical in size, and regardless of the population distribution shape"

The sample mean is defined as:

\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}

And the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

Let X denotes the random variable that measures the particular characteristic of interest. Let, X1, X2, …, Xn be the values of the random variable for the n units of the sample.

As the sample size is large,(>30) it can be assumed that the distribution is normal. The standard error of the sample mean X bar is given by:

Se=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

If we replace the values given we have:

Se=\frac{12}{\sqrt{100}}=1.2

So then the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is:

\bar X \sim N(\mu=80,Se=1.2)

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The opposite of prime numbers are composite numbers. A composite number is a positive  natural l number that has at least one positive divisor other than one or itself. The number 1 is not a prime number by definition - it has only one divisor.

The function g is defined by:
Alisiya [41]

<em>g(x)</em> = <em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 6

so

<em>g</em> (-4) = (-4)² - (-4) - 6 = 16 + 4 - 6 = 14

When <em>g(x)</em> = 6, we have

6 = <em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 6

<em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 12 = 0

Solve for <em>x</em>. We factorize this easily as

(<em>x</em> - 4) (<em>x</em> + 3) = 0

which gives

<em>x</em> - 4 = 0   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> + 3 = 0

<em>x</em> = 4   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = -3
