Answer:

The value of the sample mean is 78.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a sample of n = 4 scores is obtained from a population with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 8.

Also, the sample mean corresponds to a z score of 2.00.

<em>Let </em>\bar X<em> = sample mean</em>

The z-score probability distribution for a sample mean is given by;

              Z = \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean = 70

            \sigma = standard deviation = 8

            n = sample size = 4

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

<u>Now, we are given that the sample mean corresponds to a z score of 2.00 for which we have to find the value of sample mean;</u>

So, <em><u>z-score</u></em> formula is given by ;

                  z-score = \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } = \frac{\bar X-70}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{4} } }

                      2.00 =  \frac{\bar X-70}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{4} } }

                      2.00 =  \frac{\bar X-70}{4 } }

                     \bar X = 70+(2 \times 4)

                     \bar X = 70 + 8 = 78

<em>Therefore, the value of the sample mean is 78.</em>

Write as a mixed number 1 23/24
Mnenie [13.5K]
Hi there,

This is simple 1 23/24 as a mixed number is exactly that. It has a whole which is the 1 and then 23/24 parts of another whole, therefore, the mixed number is indeed 1 23/24.


Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perimeter is 96 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
blagie [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = L

Width = W

L=8 more than 2W

L = 8 * 2W

L = 16W

Perimeter = 96

perimeter is the lengths of all sides added together

so

2L + 2W = 96

we have

L = 16W

2L + 2W = 96

let's do substitution

put what L = into 2L + 2W = 96

so

2(16W) + 2W = 96

can you rearrange that to get w
