Answer:

(a) Population mean = 314.5mg

(b) Margin of error = 21.281mg

(c) No, 350mg is not a plausible value

The new brand of hot dog has a lower sodium content on average than the leading brand

(d) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Population mean = (370+326+322+297+326+289+293+264+327+331)/10 = 3145/10 = 314.5mg

(b) Margin of error = t×sd/√n

sd = 29.73, n = 10, degree of freedom = n-1 = 10-1 = 9

Assuming 95% confidence level

t-value corresponding to 9 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 2.262

Margin of error = 2.262×29.73/√10 = 21.281mg

(c) No

Lower limit of new brand = 314.5 - 21.281 = 293.219mg

Upper limit = 314.5 + 21.281 = 335.781mg

The range of sodium content for the new brand of hot dog is between 293.219mg and 335.781mg which is lower than the leading brand (350mg)

(d) Margin of error = t×sd/√n

From the formula above, margin of error varies inversely as the square root of sample size

The smaller the sample size (n = 10) the larger the margin of error and the less accurate is the population mean

The larger the sample size (n = 40) the smaller the margin of error and the more accurate is the population mean

Elena L [17]

Answer:

a) x=2

b)x=12

c)x=5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

a)5x-2=8

5x=8+2

5x=10

x=2

b)4x-3=2x+9

4x-2x=9+3

2x=12

x=6

c)6x+3=2x+8

6x-2x=8-3

4x=5

x=5/4

Proof:

a)5x-2=8

5(2)-2=8

10-2=8

8=8

b)4x-3=2x+9

4(12)-3=2(12)+9

48-3=24+9

45=45

c)6x+3=2x+8

6(5/4)+3=2(5/4)+8

30/4+3=10/4+8

15/2+3=5/2+8

10.5=10.5

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤

1.) y+6=3(x+2)    C
     y+6=3x+6
     y=3x+6-6
     y=3x+6
2.) y=1/2(x+8)-2    B
     y=1/2x+4-2
     y=1/2x+2
3.) y+1=1(x-3)    E
     y+1=x-3
