Answer:

.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Unfortunately, the type of model that is supposed to be used is not given so I will just solve what I can. So each friend gets and equal amount. If we have 1 pound in the beginning, and 4 friends, then we have to divide the candy by 4. So we do 1 pound/4=.25 pounds. If you want to go above and beyond, we can always convert the pounds into ounces and make it so each friend gets 4 ounces of candy.

Determine the distance between the following two points. (round to the nearest hundredths)

padilas [110]

Answer:

$d=7.07$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula: $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d:

$d=\sqrt{(3-(-2))^2+(-4-1)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(3+2)^2+(-5)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(5)^2+25}$

$d=\sqrt{25+25}$

$d=\sqrt{50}$

$d=5\sqrt{2}$

$d=7.07$

What are the primary differences between the different 1040 forms?

Rina8888 [55]

Two of the forms used for filing individual federal income tax returns are IRS Form 1040A and IRS Form 1040EZ. Trhe third one is the complex IRS Form 1040. Form 1040EZ is the briefest version of the 1040. You can't itemize deductions or claim any adjustments to income or tax credits except for the Earned Income Credit, and you can't have any income from self-employment, alimony, dividends or capital gains.

Quadrilateral ABCD is a kite. If AD=AB, find AD A. 5/3 B. 7 C. 5/7 D. 22

ICE Princess25 [194]

AD = AB

AD = 2r+8
AB = 5r-13

we need to find the value of r to find the total length

so 2r+8 = 5r-13
subtract 2r from each side:
8 = 3r -13
add 13 to each side:
21 = 3r
divide both sides by 3
r = 21 / 3 = 7
r=7
now we know r, so replace r with 7 in the equation for AD

AD = 2r+8 = 2(7) +8 = 14 +8 = 22

the answer is D. 22

The Insurance Institute reports that the mean amount of life insurance per household in the US is $110,000. This follows a norma

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) $\sigma_{\bar X} = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}= \frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}= 5656.85$

b) Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

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

c) $P( \bar X >112000) = P(Z>\frac{112000-110000}{\frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}}) = P(Z>0.354)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(Z>0.354) = 1-P(Z$

d) $P( \bar X >100000) = P(Z>\frac{100000-110000}{\frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}}) = P(Z>-1.768)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(Z>-1.768) = 1-P(Z$

e) $P(100000< \bar X$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(-1.768$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. If we select a random sample of 50 households, what is the standard error of the mean?

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent the amount of life insurance of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(110000,40000)$

Where $\mu=110000$ and $\sigma=40000$

If we select a sample size of n =35 the standard error is given by:

$\sigma_{\bar X} = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}= \frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}= 5656.85$

b. What is the expected shape of the distribution of the sample mean?

Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

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

c. What is the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of at least $112,000?

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X > 112000)$

And we can use the z score given by:

$z= \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And replacing we got:

$P( \bar X >112000) = P(Z>\frac{112000-110000}{\frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}}) = P(Z>0.354)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(Z>0.354) = 1-P(Z$

d. What is the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of more than $100,000?

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X > 100000)$

And we can use the z score given by:

$z= \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And replacing we got:

$P( \bar X >100000) = P(Z>\frac{100000-110000}{\frac{40000}{\sqrt{50}}}) = P(Z>-1.768)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(Z>-1.768) = 1-P(Z$

e. Find the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of more than $100,000 but less than $112,000

For this case we want this probability:

$P(100000$

And we can use the z score given by:

$z= \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And replacing we got:

$P(100000< \bar X$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(-1.768$
