Assume that the weights of spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia river are normally distributed. You randomly catch and weigh

25 such salmon. The mean weight from your sample is 31.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 4.4 pounds. You want to construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River. What is the point estimate for the mean weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River?

Answer: The point estimate for the mean weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River is the mean weight from your sample (\overline{x}) = 31.2 pounds .

Step-by-step explanation:

The weights of spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia river are normally distributed.

Given :  The mean weight from your sample is 31.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 4.4 pounds.

The point estimate for the mean (\mu) weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River is the mean weight from your sample (\overline{x}) i.e. is 31.2 pounds because the best point estimate for population mean is the sample mean. [in normal distribution]

AB is parallel to CD.
kogti [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ABC = ∠BCD    { AB // CD; BC TRAVERSAL, alternate angles are equal}

∠ABC = 20

∠BCA = ∠BAC     {angles opposite to equal sides are equal}

∠BCA = ∠BAC = x

x + x + 20 = 180

2x = 180 - 20

2x = 160

x = 160/2

x = 80

Viefleur [7K]
If you can graph in slope intercept, your new equations would be: y= -2x-1 and y= 2/3x-3.
Just graph those now since it should be easier.
