Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard Deviation σ2 =

Σ(xi - μ)2/N

=(1 - 5.3)2 + ... + (9 - 5.3)2/10

=68.1/10

= 6.81

σ = √6.81

= 2.60959767014

B) σ2 =

Σ(xi - μ)2/N

=(3 - 61.7)2 + ... + (99 - 61.7)2/10

=58414.1/10

= 5841.41

σ = √5841.41

= 76.429117488036

C) (1 - 11.4)2 + ... + (1 - 11.4)2/10

=8758.4/10

= 875.84

σ = √875.84

= 29.59459410095

D) (79 - 79)2 + ... + (79 - 79)2/10

=0/10

= 0

σ = √0

= 0

8 friends share 3 cookies, what fraction of the cookie does each friend get?

kirza4 [7]

8 friends share 3 cookies.

There are 3 cookies and 8 people.

We need to know how much cookie 1 friend gets.

1 friend gets 3/8 of a cookie.

There are 8 friends, so 8 x 3/8 = 3. The 8 friends will finish 3 cookies if they all have 3/8 of a cookie.

Each friend gets 3/8 of a cookie.

In a spreadsheet create a function that generates for any value x the corresponding value y when y = 10x 7. what is the value y

bezimeni [28]

The value of y when the value of x is 8 is 87

<h3>Function and values</h3>

Functions are equation expressed in terms of variables. Given the expression below;

y = 10x + 7

If the value of x is 8, then on substituting, we will have:

y = 10(8) + 7

y = 80 + 7

Simplify

y = 87

Hence the value of y when the value of x is 8 is 87

Define z_alpha to be a z-score with an area of alpha to the right. For Example: z_0.10 means P(Z > z_0.10) = 0.10. We would a

Reptile [31]

Answer:

a) P(-z_0.025 < Z < z_0.025)

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates 0.025 of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)"

And for this case the two values are : $z_{crit}= \pm 1.96$

b) P(-z_{\alpha/2} < Z < z_{\alpha/2})

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates $\alpha/2$ of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(alpha/2,0,1)"

c) For this case we want to find a value of z that satisfy:

P(Z > z_alpha) = 0.05.

And we can use the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(0.95,0,1)"

And we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Part a

P(-z_0.025 < Z < z_0.025)

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates 0.025 of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)"

And for this case the two values are : $z_{crit}= \pm 1.96$

Part b

P(-z_{\alpha/2} < Z < z_{\alpha/2})

"=NORM.INV(alpha/2,0,1)"

Part c

For this case we want to find a value of z that satisfy:

P(Z > z_alpha) = 0.05.

And we can use the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(0.95,0,1)"

And we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$
