Answer:

The probability that the sample mean will be between 80.54 and 88.9 is 0.951

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some definition to solve the problem

- The mean of the distribution of sample means is called M

- The standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is

 called σM

- σM = σ/√n , where σ is the standard deviation and n is the sample size

- z-score = (M - μ)/σM, where μ is the mean of the population  

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The sample size n = 36

∵ The sample mean M is between 80.54 and 88.9

∵ The mean of population μ = 84

∵ The standard deviation σ = 12

- Lets find σM to find z-score  

∵ σM = σ/√n

∴ σM = 12/√36 = 12/6 = 2

- Lets find z-score

∵ z-score = (M - μ)/σM

∴ z-score = (80.54 - 84)/2 = -3.46/2 = -1.73

∴ z-score = (88.9 - 84)/2 = 4.9/2 = 2.45

- Use the normal distribution table to find the probability

∵ P(-1.73 < z < 2.45) = P(2.45) - P(-1.73)

∴ P(-1.73 < z < 2.45) = 0.99286 - 0.04182 = 0.95104

∴ P(-1.73 < z < 2.45) = 0.951

* The probability that the sample mean will be between 80.54 and 88.9

  is 0.951

Misha Larkins [42]
<span>This is no a reasonable statement. While 255,113 is rounded to the nearest 100,000 (300,000), this does not really provide an accurate estimate because the value is 55,000 off. A more reasonable estimate would be 250,000 or 260,000 people living in the city.</span>

Based on the scale drawing, what is the length, in feet, of the actual parking lot? On the drawing they have the width 12.8 cm a
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The width of 48 feet is represented by 12.8cm; the length represented by 1cm is 48/12.8 = 15/4 = 3.75 feet.

The length on the drawing is 3.2cm, which is exactly 1/4 of the width of 12.8cm; therefore the length of the actual parking lot is 48/4 = 12 feet.

5. It is known that AABC = ADEF. If AB = 5, BC = 10, AC = 8, and DF = 2x-6, then solve for the value of
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are congruent, then the corresponding angles and the corresponding sides are equal

In this problem

Triangles ABC and DEF are congruent

ABC≅DEF

therefore

AB=DE ----> equation A

AC=DF ----> equation B

BC=EF ----> equation C

Substitute the given values in the equation B

8=2x-6

Solve for x

2x=8+6

2x=14

x=7

therefore

The value of x is 7
