Answer: The mean temperature for the first eight days is 6.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: The most important piece of clue has been given which  is the mean (average) for the observed data set, which is 7 days.

Note that the formula for the mean of a data set is derived as;

Mean = ∑x / f

Where ∑x is the summation of all observed data set and f is the number of data observed, that is 7. The formula now becomes;

6 = ∑x / 7

By cross multiplication, we now have,

6 * 7 = ∑x

42 = ∑x

This means the addition of all temperature observed on the first 7 days is 42. The temperature on the eighth day is now given as 10 degrees, this means the summation of all observed data for the first eight days would become 42 + 10 which equals 52. Therefore when calculating the mean for the first eight days, ∑x is now 52. The formula for the first eight days therefore is derived as follows;

Mean = ∑x / 8

Mean = 52 / 8

Mean = 6.5

The calculations therefore show that the mean temperature for the first eight days in January is 6.5 degrees

Please solve these two questions :) - Use the graphs to solve the equations provided.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

7.(1,0) and (-4,0)

8.  (-3,0) and (-2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

7.

When the function is equal to zero, we are looking for the zeros, or the x intercepts

Where it crosses the x axis are 1 and -4

(1,0) and (-4,0)

8.  When the function is equal to zero, we are looking for the zeros, or the x intercepts

Where it crosses the x axis are -3 and -2

(-3,0) and (-2,0)

Sean and Evan are college roommates who have part-time jobs as servers in restaurants. The distribution of Sean’s weekly income
Sauron [17]

Answer:

d. 0.303

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this question:

We want the probability of Sean having a greater income than Evan, which is the probability of the subtraction of Sean's income by Evan's income is greater than 0.

Distribution of the difference between Sean's and Evan's income:

Sean has mean 225, Evan 240. So

\mu = 225 - 240 = -15

Sean's standard deviation is of 25, Evan's of 15. So

\sigma = \sqrt{25^2+15^2} = 29.15

Probability that Sean will have a greater income than Evan in a randomly selected week:

Probability of the subtraction being greater than 0, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{0 - (-15)}{29.15}

Z = 0.51

Z = 0.51 has a pvalue of 0.695

1 - 0.695 = 0.305.

Closest to 0.303, option d.
