SAT scores of students at an Ivy League college are distributed with a standard deviation of 250 points. Two statistics students

, Raina and Luke, want to estimate the average SAT score of students at this college as part of a class project. They want their margin of error to be no more than 25 points.(a) Raina wants to use a 90% condence interval. How large a sample should she collect?Raina should sample at least people.

8 0

Answer:

The sample size should be 273 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Here Raina wants to use 90% interval then

ME = z. SE

SE = s d/√n at end

ME/z   = s d/√n

n={z.sd/ME)²

Z = 1.65    =>due to  90%confidence interval

ME= 24

sd=250

putting these value in the question we get 273 students

A blueprint for a house has a scale factor = 10. A wall in the blueprint is 8 in. What is the length of the actual wall?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: 6.67 feet (check to see if you made a typo)

Step-by-step explanation:

if the scale factor is ten than we multiply 8 by 10

8 * 10 = 80

important to remember this is 80 INCHES not 80 FEET

to convert 80 inches into feet, we divide by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot

80/12 = 6.67 feet

check to make sure that the first option is actually 6.67 inches because it would make more sense for it to be in feet

A ball thrown in the air has a height of y = - 16x² + 50x + 3 feet after x seconds. a) What are the units of measurement for the
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) ft/s

(b) 1ft/s

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Given equation;

y = (- 16x² + 50x + 3)ft       -------------(i)

Where;

y is measured in feet(ft)

x is measured in seconds(s).

(a) The rate of change of y with respect to x is found by dividing the total change in y by the total change in x. i.e

Δy / Δx

Where;

Δy = y₂ - y₁  

Δx = x₂ - x₁

∴ Δy / Δx = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}              --------------(ii)

Since y is measured in feet, Δy will also be measured in feet.

Also, since x is measured in seconds, Δx will also be measured in seconds.

Therefore, the rate of change of y with respect to x (Δy / Δx) will be measured in feet per second (ft/s)

(b) The rate of change of y between x  = 0 and x = 2 can be found by using equation (ii)

Where;

y₂ is the value of y at x = 2 found by substituting x = 2 into equation (i)

y₁ is the value of y at x = 0 found by substituting x = 0 into equation (i)

=> y₂ =  - 16(2)² + 50(2) + 3 = 39

=> y₁ =  - 16(1)² + 50(1) + 3 = 37

Now, substitute the values of y₂, y₁, x₂ and x₁  into equation (ii)

Δy / Δx = \frac{39 - 37}{2 - 0}  

Δy / Δx = \frac{2}{2}

Δy / Δx = 1

Therefore, the rate of change of y is 1 ft/s
