Answer:

The answer to the question is

Point Estimate = 1.5

Margin of error = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

A point estimate as opposed to an interval estimate, presented in the question which consist of a range of values, is a specific point or single value to describe a given set of collected data. An example of a point estimate is the mean of a range of values hence the point estimate is given as

(1.2 + 1.8) ÷ 2 which is equal to 1.5

The margin of error is used to describe the required allowance in terms of statistical points or percentage points by which a given set of result could vary from the actual sample. It represents the expected error between the actual population and the survey result

In this case the margin of error from the mean  is

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.3

Margin of error formula is z ×σ/√(n)

where z = z-score

σ = standard deviation

n = number of sampled data

Find the value of (– 3 /8 ) × (+8 /15). A. 11/23 B. – 1 /5 C. 11/15 D. – 1 /3
PtichkaEL [24]

(-3/8)(+8/15)

Answer will be a negative number. Whenever multiplying a - negative number * a + positive = - negative number.

(-3/8)(+8/15)

Cross out -3 and 15 . Divide by 3. -3/3,=-1 15/3

= -1/5

Cross out 8 and 8. Divide by 8.

8/8= 1 , 8/8= 1

Solution,

According to question,

Length= 12 cm

Breadth= (12-2) cm= 10 cm

Now,

By using the formula of area of rectangle, we get

Area of rectangle= Length×breadth

Area of rectangle=12 cm×10 cm

Area of rectangle=120 cm²

Hence, the area of the rectangle is 120 cm².

How do you tell if four points are coplanar
wariber [46]
You know that three points A,B,CA,B,C (two vectors A⃗ BA→B, A⃗ CA→C) form a plane. If you want to show the fourth one DD is on the same plane, you have to show that it forms, with any of the other point already belonging to the plane, a vector belonging to the plane (for instance A⃗ DA→D).

Since the cross product of two vectors is normal to the plane formed by the two vectors (A⃗ B×A⃗ CA→B×A→C is normal to the plane ABCABC), you just have to prove your last vector A⃗ DA→D is normal to this cross product, hence the triple product that should be equal to 00:

A⃗ D⋅(A⃗ B×AC)=0
