Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, 16%.

b) 0.0367 = 3.67%

c) We expect 16% orange​ candies, give or take 3.67%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For samples of size n of a proportion p, the expected sample percentage is p and the standard error is s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.16, n = 100

a. What value should we expect for our sample percentage of orange​ candies?

By the Central Limit Theorem, 16%.

b. What is the standard​ error?

s = \sqrt{\frac{0.16*0.84}{100}} = 0.0367

0.0367 = 3.67%

c. Use your answers to fill in the blanks below. We expect​ ____% orange​ candies, give or take​ _____%.

We expect 16% orange​ candies, give or take 3.67%.

Andrew is flying a kite held by 175 meters of string that makes an angle of elevation with the ground of 40. Emma is standing di
Alja [10]

Answer:

x=134.05m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Slant Height of Kite h_s=175

Angle \theta=40 \textdegree

Since Emma,The Kite and Andrew forms a right angle triangle

Generally the equation for distance between Andrew from Emma is mathematically given by

 x=h_scos\theta

 x=175cos40

 x=134.05m

The line plot shows the distances some students jumped during a Field Day competition.
trapecia [35]
To answer this question here is what you would do. I can't give you the exact answer because there is not a line plot attached.

Count the number of X's above the number 5 1/2 feet. Put this number over the total number of X's you count (including the 5 1/2s).

This is your answer when you write these 2 pieces of information in fraction form.
