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)

If point C is between A and B, then AC + CB=_____<br><br> A. ABC<br> B. BC<br> C. AB<br> D. CA
velikii [3]

The answer is C. AB. The total line segment is ACB, or AB, because C is in between A and B. If you are adding AC and CB together, you are adding the two parts of the line together.

I hope this helps :)

What 2 numbers add up to get 17 and multiply to get -200
alexira [117]
There is no fixed equation when I arrived at these numbers.

I just did trial and error. I came up with 25 and -8 as the numbers.

200 ÷ 25 = 8 ⇒ the sum of 17 depends on the signs of each numbers.

-8 x 25 = -200

-8 + 25 = 17
