Complete Question

A biologist reports a confidence interval of (3.5,4.9) when estimating the mean height (in centimeters) of a sample of seedlings. What is the estimated margin of error and the sample mean?

Answer:

The  margin of error is  E = 0.7

The  sample mean is  \=  x  =  4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question we are told that

   The  upper limit is  k  =  4.9

    The  lower limit is  r = 3.5

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

      E =  \frac{k - r}{ 2}

      E = \frac{ 4.9  -  3.5 }{2}

     E = 0.7

Generally the sample mean is mathematically evaluated as

        \=  x = k  -  E

=>    \= x  =  4.9 - 0.7

=>    \=  x  =  4.2

Mr. jones has two children. the older child is a girl. what is the probability that both children are girls?
allsm [11]
Since we already know that the older child is a girl (a 100% chance to be a girl), there must be a 50% chance that the other child is a girl. Therefore, the probability that both children are girls is 50%.
Hope this helps!

I'm a little bit confused about how to approach this can someone help?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is congruent with ΔDEF.  That means the corresponding sides are congruent.

Look at the order of the letters.  EF are the last two letters of ΔDEF.  So this corresponds with the last two letters of ΔABC.  Therefore, EF ≅ BC.

EF ≅ BC

x² + 8x = 48

x² + 8x − 48 = 0

(x + 12) (x − 4) = 0

x = -12 or 4

Since x can't be negative, x = 4.

Use technology and the given confidence level and sample data to find the confidence interval for the population mean mu . assum
attashe74 [19]

To solve for the confidence interval for the population mean mu, we can use the formula:

Confidence interval = x ± z * s / sqrt (n)

where x is the sample mean, s is the standard deviation, and n is the sample size

 

At 95% confidence level, the value of z is equivalent to:

z = 1.96

 

Therefore substituting the given values into the equation:

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.96 * 5.8 / sqrt (51)

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.59

Confidence interval = 1.41, 4.59

 

Therefore the population mean mu has an approximate range or confidence interval from 1.41 kg to 4.59 kg.

Which of the following could not be points on the unit circle?
NemiM [27]
A. √(0.8^2) + (0.6^2) = √1 = 1 => OK

<span>b.(-2/3,√ 5/3) = √(-2/3)^2 + 5/9) = √(4/9 +5/9) = √1 = 1 => OK

c.(√ 3/2, 1/3) = √(3/4 + 1/9) < 1 => it is inside the unit circle

d.(1,1) = √(1 + 1) = √2 > 1 => NO. This point is beyond the limits of the unit circle.</span>
