Answer: a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Mean height = 174.5 cm
Standard deviation = 6.9 cm
n = 50
we need to find the 98% confidence interval.
So, z = 2.326
(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.
(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?
Error would be
Hence, a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
Answer:
0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
to find out the probability that at least one of a pair of fair dice lands of 5, given that the sum of the dice is 8
Let A = sum of dice is 8
B = one lands in 5
P(B/A) = P(AB)/P(A) by conditional probability
P(AB) = sum is 8 and one is 5
So (5,3) or (3,5)
P(A) = sum is 8.
i.e. (2,6) (2,6) (3,5) (5,3) (4,4)
Required probability
= n(AB)/n(A)
=
The answer is 1/20 or 0.05
The number 12 is missing in the data set.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- The numbers are 9,12,16,18,23.
- The missing number is assumed to be 'x'
Mean = Sum of the integers / Total number of integers.
15 = (9+12+16+18+23+x) / 6
15 = (78+x) / 6
90 = 78+x
x = 90-78
x = 12
Answer:
B) 3.2 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The midpoints: midpoint formula = <em>((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁+ y₂)/2)</em>
upper = ((6 + -4)/2, (8 + 0)/2) --><em> (1, 4)</em>
lower = ((-8 + 2)/2, (3 + -5)/2) --><em> (-3, -1)</em>
2. Distance: distance formula = <em>√((x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²)</em>
√((1 + 3)² + (4 + 1)²) = √(16 + 25) = √41 ≈ 6.403... ≈ <em>6.4</em>
3. Scale: 6.4 * 0.5 mi = 3.2 mi
