Answer:

39 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Robbie, has scored $120$ so far this season. He has scored all of his points on $1$ -point extra point kicks and $3$ -point field goals. He has made a total of $66$ kicks.

TO FIND: How many of each kick has he made.

SOLUTION:

Lets extra point kicks made by Robbie be $x$

points scored using extra point kick $=1$

field goal kicks made by Robbie $=66-x$

point scored using field goal kick $=3$

Total points scored by Robbie $=120$

Total points scored are the sum of points scored by extra point kicks and field goal kicks.

$1\times x+(66-x)3=120$

$198-2x=120$

$2x=78$

$x=39$

total extra point kicks $=39$

total field goal kicks $=66-39=27$

Hence Robbie made 39 and 27 kicks of extra point kick and field goal kicks respectively.

Answer:

39 extra point kicks were made and 27 field goals were made.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x be the 1-point extra point kicks and y be the number of field goals.

Total number of kicks = 66

Thus, we can write the equation:

$x + y = 66$

Total score = 120

Thus, we can write the equation:

$x + 3y = 120$

Solving the equation, we get,

$x + 3y-(x + y) = 120-66\\2y = 54\\\Rightarrow y = 27\\\Rightarrow x = 66-27 = 39$

Thus, 39 extra point kicks were made and 27 field goals were made.

Suppose a sample of 100 families of four vacationing at Niagara Falls resulted in sample mean of $282.45 spent per day and a sam

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Given Information:

Mean = μ = $282.45

Standard deviation = σ = $64.50

Sample size = n = 100

Confidence level = 95%

Required Information:

95% Confidence interval = ?

Answer:

95% Confidence interval = ($269.81, $295.09)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.

What is Confidence Interval?

The confidence interval represents an interval that we can guarantee that the target variable will be within this interval for a given confidence level.

The confidence interval is given by

$CI = \bar{x} \pm MoE\\$

Where $\bar{x}$ is the mean and MoE is the margin of error given by

$MoE = z_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\$

Where σ is the standard deviation, n is the sample size and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the z-score corresponding to 95% confidence level.

$z_{\alpha/2} = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025\\\\z_{0.025} = 1.96$

$MoE = 1.96\cdot \frac{64.50}{\sqrt{100} } \\\\MoE = 1.96\cdot 6.45\\\\MoE = 12.64\\$

Finally, the confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm MoE\\\\CI = 282.45 \pm 12.64\\\\CI = 282.45 - 12.64 \: and \: 282.45 + 12.64\\\\CI = \$269.81 \: and \:\:\$295.09\\$

Therefore, we are 95% sure that the true population mean amount spent per day by a family of four visiting Niagara Falls is within the interval of ($269.81, $295.09)

A watering can contained 512 quarts water. After all the plants were watered, only 4 cups remained. How many cups of water were

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

2044 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

number of cups left = number of cups in the watering can - number of cups remaining

convert the capacity of the watering can to cups

1 quart = 4 cups

512 x 4 = 2048

2048 - 4 = 2044

In the 2014 - 2015 school year, the mean score on the critical reading of the SAT was 490 with a standard deviation of 102 for j

bonufazy [111]

<u>Answer:</u>

The Ranking Percentile is (B) 97.5%

<u>Explanation :</u>

To find the percentile rank we need to find the z- score. After finding the z-score match this value with the corresponding value in z-score table.

Formula to find the z-score

Z-score= $\frac{\text { scored obtained - mean }(\mu)}{\text { standard deviation }(\sigma)}$

Substituting the values in the above equation, we find

Z-score= $\frac{(694-490)}{102}$ =2

So, the Z-score is +2

Now, the corresponding value of Z-score 2 in the table is 0.9772

or the percentile score is 97.72 ~ 97.5 .
