A student wants to estimate the mean score of all college students for a particular exam. First use the range rule of thumb to m

ake a rough estimate of the standard deviation of those scores. Possible scores range from 300 to 2200. Use technology and the estimated standard deviation to determine the sample size corresponding to a 90​% confidence level and a margin of error of 100 points. What​ isn't quite right with this​ exercise? The range. rule of thumb.estimate for the standard deviation. nothing.

Answer:

See explanation below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

range = 2200 - 300 = 1900

To find standard deviation, we have:

standard deviation = range/4 = \frac{1900}{4} = 475

The range rule of thumb estimate for the standard deviation is 475

Given:

Standard deviation,\sigma = 475

Margin of Error, ME = 100

\alpha = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

Za/2 = Z0.05 = 1.64

Find sample size, n:

n ≥ [Z_\alpha_/_2 * (\frac{\sigma}{ME})]^2

n ≥ [1.64 * (\frac{475}{100})]^2

n ≥ 60.68

≈ 61

Minimun sample size,n = 61

Prove that if a is a natural number, then there exist two unequal natural numbers k and l for which ak−al is divisible by 10.
EastWind [94]
Assume a is not divisible by 10. (otherwise the problem is trivial). 
<span>Define R(m) to be the remainder of a^m when divided by 10. </span>
<span>R can take on one of 9 possible values, namely, 1,2,...,9. </span>
<span>Now, consider R(1),R(2),......R(10). At least 2 of them must have the sames value (by the Pigeonhole Principle), say R(i) = R(j) ( j>i ) </span>
<span>Then, a^j - a^i is divisible by 10.</span>
