A study has indicated that the sample size necessary to estimate the average electricity use by residential customers of a large

western utility company is 900 customers. Assuming that the margin of error associated with the estimate will be ±30 watts and the confidence level is stated to be 90 percent, what was the value for the population standard deviation?

Answer:

\sigma=547.1125

Step-by-step explanation:

-The margin of error is calculated using the formula:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\

-We substitute the values, n=900 and ME=30 in the formula to solve for standard deviation:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\\30=1.645\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{900}}\\\\\sigma=\frac{30^2}{1.645}\\\\=547.1125

Hence, the population standard deviation is 547.1125

Write an expression to describe the sequence below. Use n to represent the position of a term in the sequence, where n = 1 for t
Viefleur [7K]

Each term differs by -68 and the first term is -68, we have:

a_{n}=a_1-68(n-1) \implies \\ a_{n}=a_1-68n+68 \implies\\ a_n=-68-68n+68 \implies \\ a_n=-68n

As an expession it's just -68n.

Answer:

b=320; slope=-30

Step-by-step explanation:

if you look along the y-axis find the spot that the line intercepts and then that's b

now for the slope

find two points on the line, i chose(8 , 120) and (4 , 240)  

use the slope formula: y2-y1 over x2-x1

240-120=120 and 4-8= -4

so the slope is 120/-4 and that can be simplified to 30/-1 or -30
