Last Wednesday, a random sample of 24 students were surveyed to find how long it takes to walk from the Fretwell Building to the

college of education building. The survey team found a sample mean of 12.3 minutes with a standard deviation of 3.2 minutes. assuming walking time from Fretwell to College of education are normally distribution, which of the following is the correct 95% confidence interval for the population mean of walking times.

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We are to investigate the confidence interval of 95% for the population mean of walking times from Fretwell Building to the college of education building.

- The survey team took a sample of size n = 24 students and obtained the following results:

                Sample mean ( x^ ) = 12.3 mins

                Sample standard deviation ( s ) = 3.2 mins

- The sample taken was random and independent. We can assume normality of the sample.

- First we compute the critical value for the statistics.

- The z-distribution is a function of two inputs as follows:

  • Significance Level  ( α / 2 ) = ( 1 - CI ) / 2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Compute: z-critical = z_0.025 = +/- 1.96

- The confidence interval for the population mean ( u ) of  walking times is given below:

                      [ x^ - z-critical*s / √n  ,   x^ + z-critical*s / √n  ]

Answer:        [ 12.3 - 1.96*3.2 / √24  ,  12.3 + 1.96*3.2 / √24  ]

Which statement about the following equation is true?<br>2x2-9x+2-1​
Furkat [3]

Complete Question:

Which statement about the following equation is true?

2x^2-9x+2 = -1

A) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two real roots

B) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two complex roots

C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots

D) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two complex roots

Answer:

C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x^2-9x+2 = -1 which by simplification becomes

2x^2 - 9x + 3 = 0

For a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, the discriminant is given by the equation, D = b^2 - 4ac

If the discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different

If the discriminant D is equal to 0, the roots are real and equal

If the discriminant D is less than 0, the roots are imaginary

For the quadratic equation under consideration, a = 2, b = -9, c = 3

Let us calculate the discriminant D

D = (-9)² - 4(2)(3)

D = 81 - 24

D = 57

Since the Discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different.
