A researcher wants to know if the average time in jail for robbery has increased from what it was several years ago when the ave

rage sentence was 7 years. He obtains data on 400 recent robberies and finds an average time served of 7.5 years. If we assume the standard deviation is 3 years, perform a significance test (calculating the P-value) at the 0.05 level.

3 0

Answer:

So, the interval is : (7.206,7.794)

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean μ = 7.5

Standard deviation σ=3

n = 400

At 95% confidence interval, the z score is 1.96

7.5+1.96(\frac{3}{\sqrt{400} } )

And 7.5-1.96(\frac{3}{\sqrt{400} } )

7.5+0.294 and 7.5-0.294

So, the interval is : (7.206,7.794)

  • So, the Rockets' team has the better record because they loss less games than the Blazers team did.

suppose f(x) = x2, how does the range of g(x) = f(x) + k compare to the range of f(x)? Where k is any constant value.
anyanavicka [17]
First:  Please use the symbol " ^ " to indicate exponentiation.  Your f(x) should be x^2, not x2.  "x^2" reads "the square of x."

Let y equal g(x) = f(x) + k:  y = <span>g(x) = f(x) + k.  See that "k" is a y value?
If k=1, we merely translate the graph of f(x)=x^2 UP one scale division to obtain the graph of g(x) = f(x) + 1.

So, how does the range of g(x) compare to the range of f(x)? </span>

How do I find the value of xfor the following triangles
Naddik [55]

Given at the figure 1

A right triangle of legs of 10 and 16

We need to find the angle x

The side of 16 represent the opposite side of the angle x

The side of 10 represents the adjacent side of the angle x

According to the known sides, we can find x using tan function :

So,

\begin{gathered} \tan x=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\  \\ \tan x=\frac{16}{10}=1.6 \\  \\ x=\tan ^{-1}1.6=57.995 \end{gathered}

Rounding to the nearest degree

So, the measure of angle x = 58
