Scientists collect data on the blood cholesterol levels (milligrams per deciliter of blood) of a random sample of 24 laboratory

rats. A 95% confidence interval for the mean blood cholesterol level μ is 80.2 to 89.8. Which of the following would cause the most worry about the validity of this interval?
(a) There is a clear outlier in the data.
(b) A stemplot of the data shows a mild right skew.
(c) You do not know the population standard deviationσ.
(d) The population distribution is not exactly Normal.
(e) None of these are a problem when using a t interval.

Answer: (a) There is a clear outlier in the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement relates that sample= 24

Confidence interval= 80.2 to 89.8.

Now the data does not mention anywhere the standard deviation which is an important parameter in using the t-procedure rather we assume that standard deviation is not known. So, the most worrying part is the skewness and the presence of strong outliers in the t-procedure.

So, the option a) is correct meaning a clear outlier in the data.

Explain how proving to triangles congruent can help prove parts of the triangle congruent.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

CPCTC - Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

When two triangles are congruent, this means they have the same shape and the same size. To have the same shape, each angle must be congruent. To have the same size, each side length must be congruent. When you know two triangles are congruent you can say each corresponding part of congruent triangles is congruent. This is known as CPCTC.

PLEASE HELP WITH MATH QUESTION!! EXPLANATION NEEDED TOO!
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Matt should have factored out the leading coefficient 2 on the second step before completing the square

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, you must first factor the leading coefficient from the first two terms.

y = 2x² − 10x − 4

y = 2 (x² − 5x) − 4

y = 2 (x² − 5x + 25/4 − 25/4) − 4

y = 2 (x² − 5x + 25/4) − 25/2 − 4

y = 2 (x − 5/2)² − 33/4
