35. In a simple random sample of 25 high school students, the sample mean of the SAT scores was 1450, and the sample variance wa

s 900. Assume that the data come from a normal distribution , a 95.4 % Confidence interval for the population mean is a. 1450 +/- 180 b. 1450 +/- 18 c. 1450 +/- 12 d. 1450 +/- 360

Answer:

1450-2.0\frac{30}{\sqrt{25}}=1450-12    

1450+2.0\frac{30}{\sqrt{25}}=1450+12    

And the best option would be:

c. 1450 +/- 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

\bar X=1450 represent the sample mean for the SAT scores

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s^2 = 900 represent the sample variance given

n=25 represent the sample size  

Solution

The confidence interval for the true mean is given by :

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

The sample deviation would be s=\sqrt{900}= 30

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=2-25=24

The Confidence is 0.954 or 95.4%, the value of \alpha=0.046 and \alpha/2 =0.023, assuming that we can use the normal distribution in order to find the quantile the critical value would be z_{\alpha/2} \approx 2.0

The confidence interval would be

1450-2.0\frac{30}{\sqrt{25}}=1450-12    

1450+2.0\frac{30}{\sqrt{25}}=1450+12    

And the best option would be:

c. 1450 +/- 12

Answer:

156ft of material.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the garden path borders the garden and is 3 feet wide, it increases the side lengths of his garden by 3 feet on each side. Then we just find the perimeter using the new values:

P=36+36+42+42=156

If this helped, a brainliest answer would be greatly appreciated!

Given f(x) = 18x + 8, find x when f(x)= 14.
Naddika [18.5K]

The answer is 0.3 (1/3.)

Proof?

f(0.3) = 18(0.3) + 8

f(0.3) = 6 + 8

f(0.3) = 14

14 = 14
