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

You and some friends have $30. You want to order large pizzas (p) that are $9 each and drinks
DochEvi [55]
Given:
Budget = $30
cost of pizza = $9
cost of drinks = $1
number of pizza = p
number of drinks = d

pizza and drinks should only be equal to or less than the budget of $30.

$9p + $1d <u>< </u>$30

unit cost of pizza :          9 
unit cost of drinks :         1
total cost of set (p & d) 10

pizza = 9/10 x 30 = 27 total cost of pizza
drinks =1/10 x 30 =   3 total cost of drinks

27 ÷ 9 = 3 number of pizzas to order 
  3 ÷ 1 = 3 number of drinks to order

To check:

9p + 1d <u>< </u>30
9(3) + 1(3) <u>< </u>30
27 + 3 <u>< </u>30
30 <u>< </u>30
