n, n + 2, n + 4, n + 6 - four consecutive odd integers

-72 - the sum

The equation:

n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) + (n + 6) = -72

n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = -72

4n + 12 = -72 |subtract 12 from both sides

4n = -84 |divide both sides by 4

n = -21

n + 2 = -21 + 2 = -19

n + 4 = -21 + 4 = -17

n + 6 = -21 + 6 = -15

Answer: -21, -19, -17, -15.

Suppose a sample of 100 families of four vacationing at Niagara Falls resulted in sample mean of $282.45 spent per day and a sam

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Given Information:

Mean = μ = $282.45

Standard deviation = σ = $64.50

Sample size = n = 100

Confidence level = 95%

Required Information:

95% Confidence interval = ?

Answer:

95% Confidence interval = ($269.81, $295.09)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.

What is Confidence Interval?

The confidence interval represents an interval that we can guarantee that the target variable will be within this interval for a given confidence level.

The confidence interval is given by

$CI = \bar{x} \pm MoE\\$

Where $\bar{x}$ is the mean and MoE is the margin of error given by

$MoE = z_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\$

Where σ is the standard deviation, n is the sample size and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the z-score corresponding to 95% confidence level.

$z_{\alpha/2} = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025\\\\z_{0.025} = 1.96$

$MoE = 1.96\cdot \frac{64.50}{\sqrt{100} } \\\\MoE = 1.96\cdot 6.45\\\\MoE = 12.64\\$

Finally, the confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm MoE\\\\CI = 282.45 \pm 12.64\\\\CI = 282.45 - 12.64 \: and \: 282.45 + 12.64\\\\CI = \$269.81 \: and \:\:\$295.09\\$

Therefore, we are 95% sure that the true population mean amount spent per day by a family of four visiting Niagara Falls is within the interval of ($269.81, $295.09)

Consider the system of linear equations and the matrix equations below.

gregori [183]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Cramer's rule, the value of x is ...

$x=\dfrac{\left|\begin{array}{cc}2&3\\22&-2\end{array}\right|}{\left|\begin{array}{cc}-1&3\\4&-2\end{array}\right|}$

x = ((2)(-2) -(22)(3))/((-1)(-2) -(4)(3)) = (-4-66)/(2-12) = -70/-10

x = 7
