7.43: Let denote the random variable for height and
for the sample mean. Then if
is the mean of
So the probability that the difference between the sample and population means does not exceed 0.5 inch is
per the empirical or 68/95/99.7 rule.
7.44: For a sample of size <em>n</em>, the sample standard deviation would be . We want to find <em>n</em> such that
Comparing to the equation from the previous part, this means we would need
so a sample of at least 157 men would be sufficient.
Answer:
yes to both
Step-by-step explanation:
For a relationship to be a function then each value of x must relate to exactly one unique value of y.
This is the case in this table as
2 → 76
4 → 152
6 → 228
All unique values thus a function
To determine if it is linear then the rate of change is constant for each set of ordered pairs. This is measured using the slope formula.
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 76) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 152 ) ← ordered pair from table
m = =
= 38
Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 152) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 228)
m = =
= 38
Since rate of change is constant then function is linear
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is , where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Therefore, the correct answer is choice B. Hope this helps!
