Answer:

y=12.5x+225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of minutes

y ----> the amount of fuel in gallons

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the unit rate or slope

b is the y-intercept or initial value

we have that

The unit rate or slope is equal to

m=12.5\ \frac{gal}{min}

b=225\ gal ----> initial value (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

substitute

y=12.5x+225

A study has shown that the daily amount of milk produced by a dairy cow is normally distributed, with a mean of 6.2 gallons and
V125BC [204]

Answer:

5.5 gallons to 6.9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Daily a cow

produces a mean of 6.2 gallons (average

of 6.2 gallons, meaning they already

found the mean, "averaged" it out for

you) with a deviation of 7 gallons ("give

or take" .7 gallons). On any given day

(throw these words out) 68% of the cows

(don't need this information to answer

the question either, thrown in to confuse

you) will produce an amount of milk

within which of the following ranges?

Just subtract the deviation ("give or

take number").7 gallons from the mean

(average (already determined)) 6.2

gallons which is 5.5 gallons THEN add

the deviation ("give or take number").

7 gallons to the mean (average (already

determined)) 6.2 gallons which is 6.9

gallons. Your answer is A 5.5 gallons to

6.9 gallons. You don't even have to go

crazy on the math on this question you

can rule them all out but A immediately

with subtracting .7 from 6.2.

hope it helps!

Which of the following conditions must be met in order to make a statistical inference about a population based on a sample
klasskru [66]

Answer:

For this case if we want to conclude that  the sample does not come from a normally distributed population we need to satisfy the condition that the sample size would be large enough in order to use the central limit theoream and approximate the sample mean with the following distribution:

\bar X \sim (\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

For this case the condition required in order to consider a sample size large is that n>30, then the best solution would be:

n>= 30

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case if we want to conclude that  the sample does not come from a normally distributed population we need to satisfy the condition that the sample size would be large enough in order to use the central limit theoream and approximate the sample mean with the following distribution:
