Answer:

a) X[bar]=93

b)S=5.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

<em>A simple random sample of 5 months of sales data provided the following information: Month: 1 2 3 4 5 Units Sold: 94 100 85 94 92 </em>

<em />

<em>a. Develop a point estimate of the population mean number of units sold per month. </em>

The variable of interest is:

X: Number of sales per month.

A random sample of n=5 months was taken, for each month, the number of units sold was recorded. To calculate the mean of the sample you have to add all the observed frequencies (Units Sold) by the sample size (n)

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 465/5=93

You can say that, on average, 93 units were sold over the 5-month period.

<em>b. Develop a point estimate of the population standard deviation.</em>

To calculate the sample standard deviation you have to calculate the variance and then its square root:

S^2= \frac{1}{n-1}[sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} ]

∑X= 465

∑X²= 43361

S^2= \frac{1}{4}[43361-\frac{(465)^2}{5} ]= 29

S= √29= 5.385≅ 5.39

I hope this helps!

A motorboat takes 5 hours to travel 100mi going upstream. The return trip takes 2 hours going downstream. What is the rate of th
Temka [501]
The boat went 5hours upstream, let's say it has a "still water" speed rate of "b", it went 100miles... however, going upstream is going against the current, let's say the current has a speed rate of "c"

so, when the boat was going up, it wasn't really going "b" fast, it was going " b - c " fast, because the current was eroding speed from it

now, when coming down, the return trip, well the length is the same, so the distance is also 100miles, it only took 2hrs though, because, the boat wasn't coming down  "b" fast, it was coming down " b + c " fast, because the current was adding speed to it, so it came down quicker

now, recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&distance&rate&time\\&#10;&-----&-----&-----\\&#10;upstream&100&b-c&5\\&#10;downstream&100&b+c&2&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;100=(b-c)5\\&#10;\qquad \frac{100}{5}=b-c\\&#10;\qquad 20=b-c\\&#10;\qquad 20+c=\boxed{b}\\&#10;100=(b+c)2\\&#10;\qquad 50=b+c\\&#10;\qquad 50=\boxed{20+c}+c&#10;\end{cases}

solve for "c", to see what's the current's speed

what's "b"?  well 20+c = b

Answer:

2 1/3 cups of flour for every dozen muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/2 dozen muffins equals 3 1/2 cups of flour which is also the same as 7/2 cups of flour.  I know that (3) 1/2 dozen equals 1 1/2 dozen so I divided 7/2 by 3 which is 1 1/6 to get how much flour for 1/2 dozen then multiplied it by 2 to get how much flour in a dozen = 2 2/6 which simplified is 2 1/3.
