Answer:

The range of middle 98% of most averages for the lengths of pregnancies in the sample is, (261, 273).

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

The lengths of pregnancies in a small rural village are normally distributed with a mean of 267 days and a standard deviation of 17 days. If you were to draw samples of size 47 from this population, in what range would you expect to find the middle 98% of most averages for the lengths of pregnancies in the sample?

Solution:

As the sample size is large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 47 > 30, the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean by the normal distribution.

So,\bar X\sim N(\mu,\ \frac{\sigma^{2}}{{n}})

The range of the middle 98% of most averages for the lengths of pregnancies in the sample is the 98% confidence interval.

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 98% confidence level is,

<em>z</em> = 2.33

Compute the 98% confidence interval as follows:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

     =267\pm 2.33\cdot\frac{17}{\sqrt{47}}\\\\=267\pm5.78\\\\=(261.22, 272.78)\\\\\approx (261, 273)

Thus, the range of middle 98% of most averages for the lengths of pregnancies in the sample is, (261, 273).

tan = opp/adj

x = 13(tan 45)

x = 13

//

a² + b² = c²

13² + 13² = 338²

square root of 338 is not a rational number so turn into mixed radical.

//

x \: = 13

y = 13 \sqrt{2}

Recall that all three angles in a triangle equals 180.
Knowing this, we just have to add up all the angles and figure out what the value 'x' is.

(x-22 + x-17 + 3x+19) = 180
Simplify:
5x - 20 = 180
Add 20 to both sides:
5x = 200
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 40

Now that we found the value for x, we need to solve for angle A.
Simply input the value of 'x' into angle A's equation:
40 - 22 = 18

Angle A = 18 degrees

Good luck! If you need me to explain anything, just ask :))

A pair of jeans cost $32 last year this year they cost $38 what was the percent increase? PLEASE ANSWER NEED HELP!
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent increase = \frac{increase}{original cost} × 100%

Increase in cost = $38 - $32 = $6

percent increase = \frac{6}{32} × 100% = \frac{6(100)}{32} = 18.75%

Ah so your confused? I got you fam let me explain. So it would be best to start in the middle then graph the coordinates, move those coordinates 6 right then 5 up for the first one. Then do the same thing for the other but move them 8 left and down once.
