Answer:

Sample mean from population A has probably more accurate estimate of its population mean than the sample mean from population B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To yield a more accurate estimate of the population mean, margin of error should be minimized.

margin of error (ME) of the mean can be calculated using the formula

ME=\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} } where

  • z is the corresponding statistic in the given confidence level(z-score or t-score)
  • s is the standard deviation of the sample (or of the population if it is known)
  • N is the sample size

for a given confidence level, and the same standard deviation, as the sample size increases, margin of error decreases.

Thus, random sample of 50 people from population A, has smaller margin of error than the sample of 20 people from population B.

Therefore, sample mean from population A has probably more accurate estimate of its population mean than the sample mean from population B.

What are three ratios equal to 4 over 28 .simplify if needed?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
4/28 = 1/7 when dividing both numerator & denominator by 4 and this would be the simplified fraction.

You could use 1/7 to multiply with others to get other ratios that are equal to 4/28 or you could just use 4/28.

For example:
1/7 = 7/49
or
4/28 = 8/56

Plot the ordered paired (4,-5) state which quadrant or on which axis the point lies
Rudiy27

Answer:

The point is in the 4th quadrant.

Explanation:

Given the ordered pair(4, -5), we have that x = 4 and y = -5. Plotting this point, we'll have;

Note that quadrants are labelled in an anti-clockwise direction with the top right portion of the graph as the 1st quadrant. Looking at the plotted point, we can see that it i in the 4th quadrant.
