Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine a 95% confidence interval for the mean mean test score of students.

Number of sample, n = 25

Mean, u = 81.5

Standard deviation, s = 10.2

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z score ×standard deviation/√n

It becomes

81.5 ± 1.96 × 10.2/√25

= 81.5 ± 1.96/× 2.04

= 81.5 ± 3.9984

The lower end of the confidence interval is 81.5 - 3.9984 =77.5

The upper end of the confidence interval is 81.5 + 3.9984 = 85.5

Therefore, with 95% confidence interval, the mean test score of students is between 77.5 and 85.5

katovenus [111]

Answer:

$2.95 for a small popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

you do 8 multiplied by $7.50

which gives you $60 for the total spent together on tickets and then you do

$60 minus the total cost which is $83.60 and you get $23.60 left and then

you divide $23.60 by 8 because there is 8 people and you get a total of 2.96 for a popcorn

One of those fraction type questions, that I don’t know
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to first find the ratio of numbers less than four to total numbers.

There are 3 numbers on the wheel less than 4 (1, 2, and 3). There are 8 total numbers, meaning the ratio of numbers less than 4 to total numbers is 3:8.

Now, we need to find the probability of spinning a white number. There are 3 white numbers on the wheel (3, 5, 8). However, one of these numbers (3) is less than 4, so it is already accounted for in the previous ratio. There are 2 numbers left, meaning the ratio of remaining white numbers to total numbers is 2:8.

Adding this to the original equation, we get 5:8. As a fraction, 5:8 = 5/8. The answer that correctly highlights this is C.
