First, determine what type of sequence the set of numbers make up. Through simple logic, it is an arithmetic sequence, because one can see by inspection that there is a common difference of 3 (positive 3, just to be a bit more pedantic).

We then use the formula, t_{n} = a + (n - 1)d
where t_{n} represents the n^{th} term; a represents the starting term (so the first number in the set of numbers, which in this case is -6); n is the term number (1st, 2nd, 3rd term, etc.); d is the common difference, that is, when you subtract the next term to the previous term – what is that numerical value.

To elaborate a bit more, your 1st term is -6, 2nd is -3, 3rd is 0, etc.

Also, the formula above is something you just learn, unless you learn to proof this formula, which is something different.

So, here, t_{n} = -6 + (n-1)3, which can be expanded to:
t_{n} = -6 + 3n-3
Therefore, t_{n} = 3n - 9

Pls help being timed
Ivenika [448]

\frac{2.75}{9} =\frac{x}{(2/9)}

To solve this proportion, cross multiply.

By cross multiplying, you will multiply 2.75 * (2/9) and 9 * x.

0.61 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9.

x = 0.067... which rounds to 0.068, so your answer is:

D) x \approx 0.068

In a random sample of 25 ​people, the mean commute time to work was 33.9 minutes and the standard deviation was 7.2 minutes. Ass
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

33.9-1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}}=31.999    

33.9+1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}}=35.801    

So on this case the 80% confidence interval would be given by (31.999;35.801)

And the margin of error is given by:

ME = t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

And replacing we got:

ME = 1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}} =1.9008

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=33.9 represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=7.2 represent the sample standard deviation

n=25 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

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

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=25-1=24

Since the Confidence is 0.80 or 80%, the value of \alpha=0.2 and \alpha/2 =0.1, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.01,24)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=1.32

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

33.9-1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}}=31.999    

33.9+1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}}=35.801    

So on this case the 80% confidence interval would be given by (31.999;35.801)

And the margin of error is given by:

ME = t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

And replacing we got:

ME = 1.32\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{25}} =1.9008
