If two samples A and B had the same mean and standard deviation, but sample A had a larger sample size, which sample would have

the wider 95% confidence interval? Sample A as it comes first Sample B as its sample is more dispersed Sample A as it has the larger sample Sample B as it has the smaller sample

<h3>Answer: Sample B as it has the smaller sample (choice #4)</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Recall that the margin of error (MOE) is defined as

MOE = z*s/sqrt(n)

The sample size n is located in the denominator, meaning that as n gets bigger, the MOE gets smaller. The same happens in reverse: as n gets smaller, the MOE gets bigger.

Put another way, a small sample size means we have more error because small samples mean they are less representative of the population at large. The bigger a sample is, the better estimate we will have of the parameter.

We are told that "sample A had a larger sample size" indicating that sample A has a more narrow confidence interval.

Therefore, sample B would have a wider confidence interval.

This is true regardless of what the confidence level is set at.

G(x) = x to the power of 2 - 6 over 3x + 10 &amp; g(4) = what over what
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

We have that:

g(x) = \frac{x^2 - 6}{3*x + 10}

And we want to find the value of g(4)

Then we are evaluating the function g(x) in x = 4, this means that we need to locate all the "x" in g(x), and replace them by 4.

If we do that, we get:

g(4) = \frac{4^2 - 6}{3*4 + 10}

Now we can just solve this to get:

g(4) = \frac{4^2 - 6}{3*4 + 10} = \frac{16-6}{12-10} = \frac{10}{2}  = 5
