The phrasing "nine times out of ten" means 9/10 = 0.90 = 90% is the confidence level. We're confident 90% of the time that the confidence interval captures the population parameter we're after (in this case mu = population mean)
The portion "have an average score within 5% of 75%" means that 75% = 0.75 is the center of the confidence interval, and it goes as low as 0.75 - 0.05 = 0.70 and as high as 0.75 + 0.05 = 0.80
This confidence interval is from 70% to 80%, meaning that nine times out of ten, we're confident that the average score is between 70% and 80%
We write the confidence interval as (0.70, 0.80). It's common to use the notation (L, U) to indicate the lower (L) and upper (U) boundaries. You might see the notation in the form L < mu < U. If so, then it would be 0.70 < mu < 0.80; either way they mean the same thing.
The margin of error is 0.05 as its the 5% radius of the interval. It tells us how far the most distant score is from the center (75%)
=========================================
In summary, we have these answers
- confidence level = 90%
- margin of error = 5% = 0.05
- confidence interval = (0.70, 0.80)
- interpretation = We're 90% confident that the average exam score is between 0.70 and 0.80
Hmmm the y-intercept is at -2? what does that mean? well, is where the graph "intercepts" or touches the y-axis, and when that happens, x = 0, so the point is really ( 0 , -2 ).
and we know where the vertex is at. Let's assume a vertical parabola, in which case the squared variable is the "x".
16(2+5) since when you use distributive property, 16*2= 32 and 16*5= 80
Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
