What is the probability a sample of 90 test takers will provide a sample mean test score within 10 points of the population mean

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

0.658 is the probability that a sample 90 test takers will provide a sample mean test score within 10 points of the population mean of 502.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information is missing:

The standard deviation of population is 100.

We are given the following information in the question:

Population mean, μ = 502

Standard Deviation, σ = 100

Sample size, n = 90

Standard error =

$\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{100}{\sqrt{90}} = 10.54$

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(test score within 10 points)

$P(492 \leq x \leq 512) \\\\= P(\displaystyle\frac{492 - 502}{10.54} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{512-502}{10.54}) \\\\= P(-0.9487 \leq z \leq 0.9487)\\= P(z \leq 0.9487) - P(z < -0.9487)\\= 0.829 -0.171 = 0.658 = 65.8\%$

$P(492 \leq x \leq 512) = 65.8\%$

0.658 is the probability that a sample 90 test takers will provide a sample mean test score within 10 points of the population mean of 502.

Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 133 to 193 cm and

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation representing the relationship between height and weight of a person is:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

Here

y = weight of a person

x = height of a person

The information provided is:

$\bar x=167.90\ cm\\\bar y=81.47\ kg\\r (X, Y) = 0.228\\p-value=0.023\\\alpha =0.05$

The hypothesis to test the significance of the correlation between height and weight is:

H₀: There is no relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ = 0.

Hₐ: There is a relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ ≠ 0.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level, then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

According to information provided:

p-value = 0.023 < α = 0.05

The null hypothesis was rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that there is a relationship between the height and weight.

Compute the weight of an adult male with height, x = 172 cm as follows:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

$=-105+(1.13\times 172)\\=-105+194.36\\=89.36$

Thus, the weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Area & perimeter of rectangles word problems

nordsb [41]

Answer:

A. 6 m by 6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try the different choices to see which has the largest area. Of course, the area is the product of the dimensions:

6 m × 6 m = 36 m² . . . . largest area

10 m × 2 m = 20 m²

8 m × 4 m = 32 m²

__

The largest area is that of a square, 6 m by 6 m. (choice A)

a classroom has a length of 20 feet and a width of 30 feet. The headmaster decided that tiles will look good in that class. if e

iogann1982 [59]

The area of the room must equal the sum of the areas of the tiles...

20*30=n(2*3)

600=6n

n=100

So 100 tiles are needed.
