Which of the following is most likely the next step in the series? Choices: 10A, 21b, 32C, 43d, 54E, 65f. . A.66g. B.76g. C.76G.

First, we pay attention to the numerical coefficients of the terms in the series: 10, 21, 32, 43, 54, 65. Conclusively they form an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 11. Thus, the next numerical coefficient is 76. Then, we pay attention to the letters which are just arrange alphabetically. The next letter ought to be G which needs to be capitalized. Thus, the answer is letter C. 76G.

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts a study to determine the time needed to complete the short form. The Bureau surveys 200 people.

NISA [10]

Answer:

$8.2-2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=6.86$

$8.2+2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=9.54$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (6.86;9.54) And the error is given by:

$ME= 2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}} =1.338$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=8.2$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=2.2$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$8.2-2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=6.86$

$8.2+2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=9.54$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (6.86;9.54) And the error is given by:

$ME= 2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}} =1.338$

The distance from Clarion to DuBois is 2 1/2 inches on the map. the actual distance is 40 miles. The distance from DuBois to Rid

lisov135 [29]

Hello!

You have to find how many miles is 1 inch on the map

We can do this by doing 40 / 2 1/2 = 16

16 miles is equal to one inch

So we multiply this by 1 1/2

16 * 1 1/2 = 24

The answer is 24 miles

Hope this helps!
