Your answer is A) s + n because sum means to add and A is the only choice with addition.

Hope this Helps!!

C
Because subtracting the first number from the total would leve you with the second number

Ex:
s = 5
n = 3
s - n = x
x = 2

On a shelf containing 53 comic books, 21 are Marvel titles, 17 are DC titles, 12 are Dark Horse titles, and 3 are Harvey titles.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

68% or $\frac{36}{53}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of Geraldo selecting a comic that isn't a DC title, we have to subtract the amount of comics that are DC titles from the total amount of comics and then divide that number by the total amount of comics.

53 - 17 = 36

36/53 = 0.679

Geraldo has a 68% chance of choosing a comic that isn't a DC title.

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation below? x^2+34x-72=0

Annette [7]

Answer:

( x + 36 ) ( x - 2 ) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 36x - 2x -72 = 0

x ( x + 36 ) - 2 ( x + 36 ) = 0

( x + 36 ) ( x - 2 ) = 0

A sample of eight workers in a clothing manufacturing company gave the following figures for the amount of time(in minutes) need

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

$10.108 < \mu < 13.892$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 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".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

We have the following distribution for the random variable:

$X \sim N(\mu , \sigma=0.45)$

And by the central theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

2) Confidence interval

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 mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:

$\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$ (2)

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}$ (3)

The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=12$

The sample deviation calculated $s=2.268$

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

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,7)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.36$

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

$12-2.36\frac{2.268}{\sqrt{8}}=10.108$

$12+2.36\frac{2.268}{\sqrt{8}}=13.892$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (10.108;13.892)

$10.108 < \mu < 13.892$
