Answer: Choice B</h3>
No, this is not a plausible value for the population mean, because 5 is not within the 95% confidence interval.
====================================================
Explanation:
The greek letter mu is the population mean. It has the symbol 
which looks like the letter 'u' but with a tail at the front or left side.
The question is asking if mu = 5 is plausible if the researcher found the 95% confidence interval to be 5.2 < mu < 7.8
We see that 5 is <u>not</u> in that interval. It's a bit to the left of 5.2
Since mu = 5 is not in the interval, it's not a plausible value for the population mean.
Have we ruled it out with 100% confidence? No. Such a thing is not possible. There's always room for (slight) error. The researcher would need to do a census to be fully confident; however, such practices are very time consuming and expensive. This is the main reason why statistics is important to try to estimate the population with a sample.
The vertex is (-1, 2).
The equation of parabola:
where (h, k) is the vertex
We have h = -1 and k = 2.
Substitute:
Answer:
perimeter: 2(l+b) , area : multiply by breadth
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter: 2(10.5+5.5)
:206.5m ans
area: 10.5multiply bye 5.5
:57.75m ans
2: perimeter: 2(15+6.8)
: 36.8cm ans
area : 15 multiply by 6.8
: 102cm ans
Using an exponential function, it is found that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.
<h3>Exponential function:</h3>
A decaying exponential function is modeled by:
In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
In this problem, the function for the value of the airplane after t years is given by:
Hence A(0) = 131.5, which means that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.
