Answer:

a) The population is all people who exercise regularly; population parameters are test scores for all, categorized by whether or not each individual was given a suggestion.

b) The sample is the 98 studied; the sample statistic is the test scores for the 98 studied, categorized by whether or not each individual was given a suggestion.

c) Experiment

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting for the sake of clarity

98 people who exercise regularly were given cognitive tests. It was discovered that those participants who were given a suggestion, their exercise habits might affect their performance on the test actually did worse on the test.

a. identify the population and the population parameter of interest,

In Statistics, Population is a Set under scrutiny.

The Parameter of a Population is any descriptive measure that helps to draw the Distribution curve. So in this case, it is fair to say that:

The population is all people who exercise regularly; population parameters are test scores for all, categorized by whether or not each individual was given a suggestion.

b. describe the sample and sample statistic for the study,

The sample is any subset within the Population.

The sample statistic might be any to measure in this case, the suggestion and see if there is any correlation between them and the results in what extent, etc. to deeper analyze it.

Then:

The sample is the 98 studied; the sample statistic is the test scores for the 98 studied, categorized by whether or not each individual was given a suggestion.

c. identify the type of study.

The statistical study here is an experiment since the 98 people were undergone to cognitive tests then their results were scrutinized.

What is x?

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Option 3) 24 is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the picture is a triangle LMN. sides are MN = 12, LN = 21 and LM = x cm

Also MO is the angle bisector of angle M.

By applying angle bisector theorem for triangles we get

LM/MN = LO/NO

i.e. x/12 = 14/7

Simplify to get x = 24

Hence option 3 is right

Verify:

Check whether angle bisector theorem is true.

The proportion LM/MN =24/12 = 2

The proportion LO/NO =14/7 =2

Both are equal and hence verified

let sin(θ) =3/5 and tan(y) =12/5 both angels comes from 2 different right trianglesa)find the third side of the two tringles b)

statuscvo [17]

In a right triangle, we haev some trigonometric relationships between the sides and angles. Given an angle, the ratio between the opposite side to the angle by the hypotenuse is the sine of this angle, therefore, the following statement

$\sin (\theta)=\frac{3}{5}$

Describes the following triangle

To find the missing length x, we could use the Pythagorean Theorem. The sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. From this, we have the following equation

$x^2+3^2=5^2$

Solving for x, we have

$\begin{gathered} x^2+3^2=5^2 \\ x^2+9=25 \\ x^2=25-9 \\ x^2=16 \\ x=\sqrt[]{16} \\ x=4 \end{gathered}$

The missing length of the first triangle is equal to 4.

For the other triangle, instead of a sine we have a tangent relation. Given an angle in a right triangle, its tanget is equal to the ratio between the opposite side and adjacent side.The following expression

$\tan (y)=\frac{12}{5}$

Describes the following triangle

Using the Pythagorean Theorem again, we have

$5^2+12^2=h^2$

Solving for h, we have

$\begin{gathered} 5^2+12^2=h^2 \\ 25+144=h^2 \\ 169=h^2 \\ h=\sqrt[]{169} \\ h=13 \end{gathered}$

The missing side measure is equal to 13.

Now that we have all sides of both triangles, we can construct any trigonometric relation for those angles.

The sine is the ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse, and the cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, therefore, we have the following relations for our angles

$\begin{gathered} \sin (\theta)=\frac{3}{5} \\ \cos (\theta)=\frac{4}{5} \\ \sin (y)=\frac{12}{13} \\ \cos (y)=\frac{5}{13} \end{gathered}$

To calculate the sine and cosine of the sum

$\begin{gathered} \sin (\theta+y) \\ \cos (\theta+y) \end{gathered}$

We can use the following identities

$\begin{gathered} \sin (A+B)=\sin A\cos B+\cos A\sin B \\ \cos (A+B)=\cos A\cos B-\sin A\sin B \end{gathered}$

Using those identities in our problem, we're going to have

$\begin{gathered} \sin (\theta+y)=\sin \theta\cos y+\cos \theta\sin y=\frac{3}{5}\cdot\frac{5}{13}+\frac{4}{5}\cdot\frac{12}{13}=\frac{63}{65} \\ \cos (\theta+y)=\cos \theta\cos y-\sin \theta\sin y=\frac{4}{5}\cdot\frac{5}{13}-\frac{3}{5}\cdot\frac{12}{13}=-\frac{16}{65} \end{gathered}$

The time taken to assemble a laptop computer in a certain plant is a random variable having a normal distribution of 20 hours an

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

a) 40.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time of less than 19.5 hours.

b) 34.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time between 20 hours and 22 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

$\mu = 20, \sigma = 2$
