Answer:

60 -76 is the range

Step-by-step explanation:

As the graph shows, if we are in 2 standard deviations of the mean, we are in (34.1 + 13.6) *2 = 47.7*2 = 95.4 %

Our mean is 68

2  standard deviations is 2 * 4 = 8

68-8 = 60

68 * 8 = 76

We need to be between 60 and 76 to have at 95% confidence interval

The empirical rule states that at 95% the measurements would be within 2 standard deviations of the mean.


You are given a mean of 68 inches and a standard deviation of 4.

2 times the standard deviation = 2 x 4 = 8

So 95% of the heights would be between 68-8 = 60 inches and 68+8 = 76 inches.

Tentukan persamaan garis yang di wakili ruas garis AB,BC,CD dan AD! <br>tolong kak
Ann [662]

Answers:

1. AB: y = - 2x - 6

2. BC: y = x - 3

3. CD: x = 3

4. AD: y = (3/7) x +26/7


Solution:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


1. AB

A=(-4,2)=(xa, ya)→xa=-4, ya=2

B=(-1,-4)=(xb, yb)→xb=-1, yb=-4

mab=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa)

mab=(-4-2)/(-1-(-4))

mab=(-6)/(-1+4)

mab=(-6)/(3)

mab=-2

y-ya=mab (x-xa)

y-2=-2(x-(-4))

y-2=-2(x+4)

y-2=-2x-8

y-2+2=-2x-8+2

y=-2x-6


2. BC

B=(-1,-4)=(xb, yb)→xb=-1, yb=-4

C=(3,0)=(xc, yc)→xc=3, yc=0

mbc=(yc-yb)/(xc-xb)

mbc=(0-(-4))/(3-(-1))

mbc=(0+4)/(3+1)

mbc=(4)/(4)

mbc=1

y-yc=mbc (x-xc)

y-0=1 (x-3)

y=x-3


3. CD

C=(3,0)=(xc, yc)→xc=3, yc=0

D=(3,5)=(xd, yd)→xd=3, yd=5

mcd=(yd-yc)/(xd-xc)

mcd=(-4-0)/(3-3)

mcd=(-4)/(0)

mcd= Infinite (Vertical line)

Equation vertical line: x=xc=xd

x=3


4. AD

A=(-4,2)=(xa, ya)→xa=-4, ya=2

D=(3,5)=(xd, yd)→xd=3, yd=5

mad=(yd-ya)/(xd-xa)

mad=(5-2)/(3-(-4))

mad=(3)/(3+4)

mad=3/7

y-ya=mad (x-xa)

y-2=(3/7)(x-(-4))

y-2=(3/7)(x+4)

y-2=(3/7)x+12/7

y-2+2=(3/7)x+12/7+2

y=(3/7)x+(12+7(2))/7

y=(3/7)x+(12+14)/7

y=(3/7)x+26/7

A survey indicated that 2 out of 4 doctors used brand X aspirin. If 1000 doctors used brand X, how many doctors were surveyed? P
Ratling [72]
We can set this up as a proportion.

Since 2 is proportional to 1000, then 4 is proportional to "doctors surveyed".

\frac{2}{4}  =  \frac{1000}{d} where d is the doctors surveyed.

Cross multiply.

2d = 4000
d=2000

2000 doctors were surveyed.
