A random sample of size 15 taken from a normally distributed population revealed a sample mean of 75 and a sample variance of 25

Answer:

The upper limit of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean would equal 83.805.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. Since the variance is 25, the sample's standard deviation is 5.

We have the sample standard deviation, not the population, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

T interval:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 15 - 1 = 14

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 14 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.95(t_{95}). So we have T = 1.761

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 1.761*5 = 8.805.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 75 + 8.805 = 83.805.

The upper limit of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean would equal 83.805.

Answer:

y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite Evaluate Powers:

33^{2y-1}+3^{-1}+2*3^{y}*3^{-1}=1

Calculate:

(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +2*3^{y}*\frac{1}{3}=1

Solve using substitution:

(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +\frac{2}{3} *3^{y}=1     t=3^{y}

Solve the equation for t:

t^{2}*\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{3}t=1

t=-3

t=1

Substitute back to t=3^y

3^y=-3

3^y=1

y∉R

3^{y}=1

y=0

Answer:

  3, 8, 14, 30, 58

Step-by-step explanation:

As with all formulas, put the numbers in place of the corresponding variables, and do the arithmetic.

  a_1=3\qquad\text{given}\\\\a_2=8\qquad\text{given}\\\\a_3=2a_1+a_2=2(3)+8=14\\\\a_4=2a_2+a_3=2(8)+14=30\\\\a_5=2a_3+a_4=2(14)+30=58

The first 5 terms of the sequence are 3, 8, 14, 30, 58.

What is the surface area of this right rectangular prism?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A≈32\frac{3}{10}ft²

--

To find the surface area of a right rectangular prism you must use this formula A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Then plug in your variebles

A=2( 1.33*1.5+5+1.5+5+1.33)

This comes out to be A≈32 \frac{3}{10}
