Answer:

Inferential statistics

Step-by-step explanation:

When we conduct a poll, we aim to make a generalization about the population or units under study. The recent poll of 1971 home owners in West Virginia showed that the average (mean) price of house <em>in the U.S</em><em>.</em> is $319,000.

Recall that this poll was conducted only in West Virginia but the result or finding of the poll is being generalized over the U.S. as a whole. Hence, we are using the sample (fraction) to determine the population (whole) of home owners in the U.S. This is what we call <em>statistical inference or inferential statistics.</em>

Answer:

μ ≈ 2.33

σ ≈ 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Each person has equal probability of ⅓.

\left[\begin{array}{cc}X&P(X)\\1&\frac{1}{3}\\2&\frac{1}{3}\\4&\frac{1}{3}\end{array}\right]

The mean is the expected value:

μ = E(X) = ∑ X P(X)

μ = (1) (⅓) + (2) (⅓) + (4) (⅓)

μ = ⁷/₃

The standard deviation is:

σ² = ∑ (X−μ)² P(X)

σ² = (1 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓) + (2 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓) + (4 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓)

σ² = ¹⁴/₉

σ ≈ 1.25

the ball is 150g heavy and it is dropped from 300m, what is the velocity of the ball just before it touches the ground
boyakko [2]

Answer:

77.5 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Once the ball is dropped from the height, it converts all its potential energy into kinetic energy:

P. E = K.E\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Using this equation, and the data we have to find the velocity of the ball:

mass = 150 \ g \\gravity = 10 \ m/s^2\\height = 300 m

P.E = mgh\\150 \times 10 \times 300 = \frac{1}{2} \times 150 \times v^2\\\\150 \times 10 \times 300 = 75 \times v^2\\\\v^ 2 = \frac{150 \times 10 \times 300 }{75}\\\\v^2 = 6000\\\\v = \sqrt {6000}\\\\v = 77. 5 \ ms^{-1}
