the best would be 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 turned into a decimal is .75 then you would add the 1 making it 1.75.

Which of the following is a quantity that could be represented by the number

Komok [63]

Answer:

2.404 x 10^6?. A. the population of Iowa. B. the diameter (in meters) of an atom. C. the thickness (in meters) of a sheet of printer paper. D. the amount of money (in US dollars) in the average checking account. .

When 2.404 x 10^6 is expressed in another form, the number is equal to 2,404,000. The population of a place would possibly be around this number. It cannot be the diameter of an atom since the number is too large not the thickness of a paper. It is not a common case also that the money in a bank account is around this number. Answer is A.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

1) The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=61.5$

2) $61.5-5.4=56.1$

3) $61.5+5.4=66.9$

4) B. An interval estimate gives us a sense of the accuracy of the point estimate whereas a point estimate alone does not.

Because with the confidence interval we know the confidence level of the interval, and the limits for the parameter at some significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Part 1

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:

$\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$ (a)

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}$ (b)

The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=61.5$

The sample deviation calculated $s=5.143$

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

n=6 represent the sample size

Part 2

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm ME$ (1)

So if we have the margin of error 5.4mm we can find the lowr limit like this:

$61.5-5.4=56.1$

Part 3

$61.5+5.4=66.9$

Part 4

B. An interval estimate gives us a sense of the accuracy of the point estimate whereas a point estimate alone does not.

Because with the confidence interval we know the confidence level of the interval, and the limits for the parameter at some significance level.

One end of a line segment has the coordinates (-6,2). If

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The coordinates of the other end is $(16,2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$End 1: (-6,2)$

$Midpoint: (5,2)$

Required

Find the coordinates of the other end

Let Midpoint be represented by (x,y);

(x,y) = (5,2) is calculated as thus

$(x,y) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$

$x = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}$ and $y = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}$

Where $(x_1,y_1) = (-6,2)$ and $(x,y) = (5,2)$

So, we're solving for $(x_2,y_2)$

Solving for $x_2$

$x = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}$

Substitute 5 for x and -6 for x₁

$5 = \frac{-6 + x_2}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * 5 = \frac{-6 + x_2}{2} * 2$

$10 = -6 + x_2$

Add 6 to both sides

$6 + 10 = -6 +6 + x_2$

$x_2 = 16$

Solving for $y_2$

$y = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}$

Substitute 2 for y and 2 for y₁

$2 = \frac{2 + y_2}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * 2 = \frac{2 + y_2}{2} * 2$

$4 = 2 + y_2$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$4 - 2 = 2 - 2 + y_2$

$y_2 = 2$

$(x_2,y_2) = (16,2)$

Hence, the coordinates of the other end is $(16,2)$

The width of a rectangular card is 2 cm lekss than the Tength. The area is 15 cm. Find the length and

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area A = 15square cm

Length L = x

Width w = x - 2

Area = L × w

15 = x(x - 2)

15 = x^2 -2x

x^2 -2x - 15 = 0

Solving by factorization

x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15 = 0

(x^2 -5x) + (3x -15) = 0

x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) = 0

(x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

(x + 3) = 0 or (x - 5) = 0

x = -3 or 5

Since x can't be negative therefore x is 5cm

Length = 5cm

Width = 5-2 = 3cm
