Five pulse rates are randomly selected from a set of measurements. The five pulse rates have a mean of 65.4 beats per minute. Fo

ur of the pulse rates are 57​, 55​, 62​, and 83. a. Find the missing value. b. Suppose that you need to create a list of n values that have a specific known mean. Some of the n values can be freely selected. How many of the n values can be freely assigned before the remaining values are​ determined? (The result is referred to as the number of degrees of​ freedom.)

Answer:

<h2>a) 70</h2><h2>b) n-1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is defined as the sum total of data divided by the total number of data.

\overline x = \frac{\sum Xi}{N}

Xi are individual data

N is the total number of data = 5

Given the mean of the pulse rate = 65.4

a) Let the 5pulse rates be our data as shown: 57​, 55​, 62​, 83 and y where y is the missing value. According to the formula:

65.4 = \frac{57+55+62+83+y}{5}

65.4 = \frac{257+y}{5}\\ 257+y = 65.4*5\\257+y = 327\\y = 327-257\\y = 70

The missing value is 70

b) Since the total list of numbers is n values with a specific known mean, if some of this values can be freely selected, the number of n values that can be freely assigned before the remaining values are​ determined is any values less than n i.e n-1 values.

From the formula for calculating mean:

\overline x = \frac{\sum Xi}{N}\\{\sum Xi} = N\overline x

This shows that the sum of all the values is equal to the product of the total values and the mean value. Since we can freely choose n-1 values, then sum of the set of data can be written as \sum \sumx^{n-1}  _i__=_1 Xi

\sum \sumx^{n-1}  _i__=_1 Xi \  =\  N \overline x

The number of n values which is referred to the degree of freedom is n-1

An electrical rm manufactures light bulbs that have a life span that is approximately normally distributed. The population stand
stira [4]

Answer:

The 't' test statistic = 1.46 < 1.69

The test of hypothesis is H 0 :μ = 800 is accepted

A sample of 30 bulbs are found came from average µ= 800

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

Given population of mean μ = 800

given size of small sample n =30

sample standard deviation 'S' = 45

Mean value of the sample χ = 788

Null hypothesis H_{0} =µ  =800

alternative hypothesis  H_{1} = µ ≠ 800

<u>Step 2</u>:-

The 't' test statistic t =  \frac{x-μ}{\frac{sig}{\sqrt{n} } }

                             t = \frac{788-800}{\frac{45}{\sqrt{30} } }

                       t = \frac{12}{8.215} = 1.4607

<u>Step 3</u>:-

The degrees of freedom γ = n-1 = 30-1 =29

From "t" value from table at 0.05 level of significance ( t = 1.69)

The calculated value t = 1.4607 < 1.69

Therefore The null hypothesis H_{0} ' is accepted.

<u>conclusion</u>:-

A sample of 30 bulbs are came found from average µ= 800

What is the first step in solving the equation
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

First Step: separate x^2 from -16

Second Step: add -16/25 to the other side.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 16/25 = 0

^^ this might be easier if you separate x^2 and -16

<em>First Step-</em>

so rewrite the problem as x^2/25  -16/25 = 0

then...

<em>Second Step-</em>

add -16/25 to the other side. This makes it: x^2/25 = 16/25

<em>Continuation-</em>

Now, you can multiply 25 on both sides to cancel it out.

so you have x^2 = -16

Message me if you want to solve for x.
