Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take appropriately huge random-samples (n > 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample- means will be approximately normally-distributed.

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 200

<em>σ</em> = 19.0

Population is skewed.

As the sample selected is quite large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 200 > 30 the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the distribution of the sample mean by the normal distribution.

So, \bar X\sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma^{2}}{n}).

Then to construct a confidence interval for mean we will use a <em>z</em>-interval.

And for 95% confidence level we will compute the critical value of <em>z</em>, i.e. z_{\alpha/2}.

Thus, the correct option is (a).

A rectangle has a length of 6x-5y+1 if the perimeter of the rectangle is 16x-4y-4 determine an expression for its width
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Width = 3y - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2l + 2w

12x - 4y - 4 = 2(6x - 5y + 1) + 2w

12x - 4y - 4 = (12x - 10y + 2) + 2w

6y - 6 = 2w

w = 3y - 3
