The number of violent crimes committed in a day possesses a distribution with a mean of 2.3 crimes per day and a standard deviat

ion of 2 crimes per day. A random sample of 100 days was observed, and the mean. number of crimes for the sample was calculated. Describe the sampling distribution of the sample mean.
A) shape unknown with mean-2.3 and standard deviation 2
B) approximately normal with mean 2.3 and standard deviation 2
C) shape unknown with mean 2.3 and standard deviation 0.2
D) approximately normal with mean 2.3 and standard deviation 0.2

Answer:

B) approximately normal with mean 2.3 and standard deviation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Mean crimes per day = 2.3

Standard deviation = 2

Number of samples = 100

Sampling distribution of the mean:

According to the central limit theorem:

Sample mean = population mean

2.3 = 2.3

The standard deviation of the sample (s) : ratio of the population standard deviation and square root of the sample size.

s = population standard deviation / √sample size

s = 2 / √100

s = 2 / 10

s = 0.2

The central limit theorem also posits that once ths sample size is large enough, the sampling of the sample mean will be approximately normal.

Hence, the distribution is approximately normal, with mean of 2.3 and standard deviation of 0.2

How many solutions does the equation −3x−17=−17−3x have?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

an infinite number of solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

−3x −17 = −17 −3x

left side = right side  TRUE because -3x-17 is the same as -17-3x

we can rearrange  the the equation

−3x −17 +17 = −17 +17−3x, add 17 on both sides of the equations

            -3x = -3x, divide both sides by (-3)

               x = x

Since this equation is <u>always true ( for any number ) </u>we have <u>an infinite number of solutions</u> (since there are is an infinity of numbers.)

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Legs are the sides of an isosceles triangle that aren't the base, so in this case ZX would be the base. This rule is only for isosceles triangles. It doesn't apply to any other type of triangle.

Hope I helped, sorry if I'm wrong!
