Answer:

The smaller number is 22

The larger number is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

L + S = 52

L = S + 8

Set both equations equal to L.

S + 8 = -S + 52

+S        +S

2S + 8 = 52

     - 8    - 8

2S = 44

S = 22

To find the larger number, plug 22 in as S into the equations.

L = 30

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

95% Confidence interval:  (0.8449,0.9951)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 50

Number of times the dog is right, x = 46

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{46}{50} = 0.92

95% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

Putting the values, we get:

0.92 \pm 1.96(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.92(1-0.92)}{50}})\\\\ = 0.92\pm 0.0751\\\\=(0.8449,0.9951)

(0.8449,0.9951) is the required 95% confidence interval for the proportion of times the dog will be correct.

Hello!

If Bruce observes that the number of pitches a batter hits varies and is given by the function f(x)=x-11, and the batters get {4, 12, 14, 27, 42}, then Bruce threw {15, 23, 25, 38, 53} pitches. We get this solution set by adding 11 to each element in the set {4, 12, 14, 27, 42}.
