One hundred teachers attended a seminar on mathematical problem solving. The attitudes of representative sample of 12 of the tea

chers were measured before and after the seminar. A positive number for change in attitude indicates that a teacher's attitude toward math became more positive. The twelve change scores are as follows. 3; 7; −1; 1; 0; 5; −3; 2; −1; 6; 5; −2

Answer:

1. <u>μ = 1.83 (rounding to the next hundredth)</u>

2. <u>σ = 3.21 (rounding to the next hundredth)</u>

3. <u>Median = 3/3 = 1.5</u>

4. <u>Score = - 5.232</u>

Correct statement and question:

One hundred teachers attended a seminar on mathematical problem solving. The attitudes of a representative sample of 12 of the teachers were measured before and after the seminar. A positive number for change in attitude indicates that a teacher's attitude toward math became more positive. The 12 change scores are as follows:

3; 7; −1; 1; 0; 5; −3; 2; −1; 6; 5; −2

1. What is the mean change score?

2. What is the standard deviation for this sample?

3. What is the median change score?

4. Find the change score that is 2.2 standard deviations below the mean.

Source: Previous question that can be found at brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's calculate the mean change score, this way:

μ = (3 + 7 + -1 + 2 + 0 + 5 + -3 + 1 + -1 + 6 + 5 + -2)/12

μ = 22/12

<u>μ = 1.83 (rounding to the next hundredth)</u>

2. Let's calculate the standard deviation, this way:

σ² = [(3² - 1.83²) + (7² - 1.83²) + (-1² - 1.83²) +( 1² -1.83²) + (0² - 1.83²) + (5 - 1.83²) + (-3² - 1.83²) + (2² - 1.83²) + ( -1² - 1.83²) + (6² - 1.83²) + (5² - 1.83²) + (-2² - 1.83²=]/12

σ² = 123.67/12

σ² = 10.31

√σ² = √10.31

<u>σ = 3.21 (rounding to the next hundredth)</u>

3. Let's calculate the median change score, this way:

Let's recall that If you have an even set of numbers, average the middle two to find the median, therefore we have:

-3/-2/-1/-1/0/1/2/3/5/5/6/7

Median = (1 + 2)/2

<u>Median = 3/3 = 1.5</u>

4. Let's find the change score that is 2.2 standard deviations below the mean, this way:

Score = 1.83 - 2.2 * 3.21

Score = 1.83 - 7.062

<u>Score = - 5.232</u>

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = (3+7+-1+1+0+5+-3+2+-1+6+5+-2)/12

= 1.833

median is middle of ordered numbers -3/-2/-1/-1/0/1/2/3/5/5/6/8/7 here between the 6th and the 7th since with even number sample, there is not a unique middle. This would be 1.5

Standard deviation = √ 123.67/12

√10.3

=3.21

the change score that is 2.2 standard deviations below the mean.

1.83 - 2.2(3.21)

= 5.232

Find an​ nth-degree polynomial function with real coefficients satisfying the given conditions.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

\displaystyle f(x) = -2(x-2)(x^2+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find a third degree polynomial with zeros <em>x </em>= 2 and <em>x</em> = 2i and f(-1) = 30.

First, note that by the Complex Root Theorem, since <em>x</em> = 2i is a root, <em>x</em> = -2i must also be a root.

Hence, we will have the three factors:

\displaystyle f(x) = a(x-(2))(x-(2i))(x-(-2i))

Where <em>a</em> is the leading coefficient.

Expand and simplify the second and third factors:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (x-(2i))(x-(-2i)) &= (x-2i)(x+2i) \\ \\ &= x(x-2i)+2i(x-2i) \\ \\ &= (x^2 - 2ix) + (2ix - 4i^2) \\ \\ &=x^2 + 4\end{aligned}

Hence:

\displaystyle f(x) = a(x-2)(x^2+4)

Since f(-1) = 30:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}  f(x) &= a(x-2)(x^2+4) \\ \\ (30) &= a((-1)-2)((-1)^2+4) \\ \\ 30 &= -15a \\ \\ a&= -2\end{aligned}

In conclusion, third degree polynomial function is:

\displaystyle f(x) = -2(x-2)(x^2+4)
