A teacher was interested in knowing the amount of physical activity that his students were engaged in daily. He randomly sampled

six students in his class and recorded the number of minutes that they exercised in the past day. The numbers were 30mins, 40 mins, 60 mins, 80 mins, 20 mins, and 85 mins. What’s the standard error of the mean

Answer:

The standard error of the mean is 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we don't know the standard deviation of the population, we can estimate the standard error of the mean from the standard deviation of the sample as:

\sigma_{\bar{x}}\approx\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

The sample is [30mins, 40 mins, 60 mins, 80 mins, 20 mins, 85 mins]. The size of the sample is n=6.

The mean of the sample is:

\bar{x}=\frac{1}n} \sum x_i =\frac{30+40+60+80+20+85}{6}=52.5

The standard deviation of the sample is calculated as:

s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x_i-\bar x)^2} \\\\ s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{5}\cdot ((30-52.5)^2+(40-52.5)^2+(60-52.5)^2+(80-52.5)^2+(20-52.5)^2+(85-52.5)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{5} *3587.5}=\sqrt{717.5}=26.8

Then, we can calculate the standard error of the mean as:

\sigma_{\bar{x}}\approx\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{26.8}{6}= 4.5

A converging lens of focal length 5 cm is placed at a distance of 20
lesya [120]

The object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen

<h3>Mirror equation</h3>

The mirror equation is given according to the expression below;

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

Given the following parameters

f = 5cm

v = 20cm

Required

object distance u

Substitute

1/5 = 1/u +1/20

1/u = 1/5-1/20
1/u = 3/20

u = 20/3 cm

Hence the object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen

Amelia wants to paint three walls in her family room. Two walls are 26 feet long by 9 feet wide. The other wall is 18 feet long
sattari [20]
Given:
Wall 1 & 2 : 26 ft by 9 ft
Wall 3 : 18 ft by 9 ft

Area 1 : 26 ft x 9 ft = 234 ft²
Area 2 : 26 ft x 9 ft = 234 ft²
Area 3 : 18 ft x 9 ft = 162 ft²

Total Area : 234 ft² + 234 ft² + 162 ft² = 630 ft²

1 Gallon = 250 ft²

630 ft² ÷ 250 ft² per gallon = 2.52 gallons

Can someone please help me like I really need help this problem has to have more than one step to be solved I really need help a
kumpel [21]

Answer:

85°

Step-by-step explanation:

Please follow along with these directions on the attached picture so that this makes sense.  I have labeled the picture with the variables I used and the angles I figured out.

Let's start in the top left corner. Remember: triangles always have 180°, and straight lines always have 180°.

180-115 = 65

65+85+x = 180, so x = 30

30+90+y = 180, so y = 60

180-155 = 25

25+60+z = 180, so z = 95

180-95 = 85°
