Suppose you want to use a confidence interval to estimate the true mean number of calories found in candy bars. It is known that

the distribution of the calories is normal. How many candy bars must you have in order to be sure the sampling distribution of x is normal?

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- To estimate the true mean number of calories found in candy bars we need a confidence interval for the distribution.

- Assuming population is normally distributed. We take a sample of "n" number of candies from the population. It is given that the sample conforms to the condition of normality irrespective of the sample size "n"

- If the population is not normally distributed then to approximate the sample for normality then the sample size must be large enough for it to be covered throughout 3 standard deviations.

- It is found through empirical results that "sufficient large" sample size of n:

                                        n ≥ 30

- Complies with the conditions of normality.

Answer:

See explaination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling distribution can be defined as a probability distribution of a statistic which is gotten through a large number of samples usually drawn from a specific population.

The sampling distribution of a given population can be described as the distribution of frequencies of a range of different outcomes that could possibly occur for a statistic of a population.

Please refer to attachment for a step by step technique to prove How many candy bars must you have in order to be sure the sampling distribution of x is normal.

For each equation, determine whether it represents a direct variation, an inverse variation, or neither.
Murljashka [212]

Direct variation is written in the form y = k * x or x = y * k. And, inverse variation is written in the form y = k/x or x = y/k.

For the first problem, if we isolated the y, we would get:

4y = 3x - 1

y = (3/4)x - 1/4

This is written as y = mx + b, which isn’t the form of direct or inverse variation, so the answer is NEITHER.

For the second equation, we could divide by 2 on both sides to isolate x and see if it is in the correct form:

x = 4/y

This is inverse form, so the second question is INVERSE with a constant of variation as 4.

9 + 60 -42x
9+60 = 69
= 69- 42x

What is the inverse one to one function of f(x) = square root of x-2???
alexira [117]
f(x) = \sqrt{x - 2} \\y = \sqrt{x - 2} \\y^{2} = (\sqrt{x - 2})^{2} \\y^{2} = x - 2 \\x^{2} = y - 2 \\x^{2} + 2 = y \\x^{2} + 2 = f^{-1}(x)

Don’t mind the number 34 but what I need help?
dybincka [34]
U will first need to collect the like terms,
x+16>-5x+4
-5x will go to the other side becoming 5x while 16 while also cross the other side becoming -16
x+5x>4 -16
6x> when 4 is taken out from -16 it becomes - 12
6x>-12 when divided the answer obtained will be -2
