Mathematics
1 answer:
Dimas [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A.  The mean will increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average of the numbers. You just add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.

84 + 75 + 76 + 80 + 48 + 75 = 438

438 / 6 = 73

mean = 73

The outlier is 48, so when you remove it, there will now be only five numbers in the set, and the mean will increase in size.

84 + 75 + 76 + 80 + 75 = 390

390 / 5 = 78

NEW mean (without the outlier) : 78

Dafna1 [17]

Using the z-distribution, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of red candies is of (7.84%, 33.18%). Since 33% is part of the interval, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the claim is wrong.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.95, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975, so the critical value is z = 1.96.

Researching this problem on the internet, 8 out of 39 candies are red, hence the sample size and the estimate are given by:

n = 39, \pi = \frac{8}{39} = 0.2051

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

  • \pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2051 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2051(0.7949)}{39}} = 0.0784
  • \pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2051 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2051(0.7949)}{39}} = 0.3318

As a percentage, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of red candies is of (7.84%, 33.18%). Since 33% is part of the interval, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the claim is wrong.

Satellite dishes are shaped like parabolas to optimally revive signals. The cross section of a satellite dish can be modeled by
Anna11 [10]

The cross section of the satellite dish is an illustration of a quadratic function

The quadratic function that models the cross-section is y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)

<h3>How to determie the equation of the cross-section?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Width = 6 feet

Depth = 1.5 feet

Express the width the sum of two equal numbers

Width = 3 + 3

The above means that, the equation of the cross section passes through the x-axis at:

x = -3 and 3

So, we have:

y = a(x - 3) * (x + 3)

Express as the difference of two squares

y = a(x^2 - 9)

The depth is 1.5.

This is represented as: (x,y) =(0,-1.5)

So, we have:

-1.5 = a(0^2 - 9)

Evaluate the exponent

-1.5 = -9a

Divide both sides by -9

a = 1/6

Substitute 1/6 for a in y = a(x^2 - 9)

y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)

Hence, the quadratic function that models the cross-section is y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)

Elza [17]

Hello!

The slope intercept form equation is shown below.

y=mx+b

In this equation, m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We can just plug in our numbers to find our answer.

y=3x-2

I hope this helps!
