A random sample of 145 students is chosen from a population of 4,250 students. The mean IQ in the sample is 130, with a standard

deviation of 7. Using a margin of error of 0.95%, what is the 90% confidence interval for the students' mean IQ score?

Answer:

Approximately, the 90% confidence interval for the students' mean IQ score is between 129.045 - 130.956

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use to solve this question is called the Confidence Interval formula.

Confidence interval =

x ± z × ( σ/ (√n) )

Where:

x = the sample mean = 130

z = the z-value for 90% confidence = 1.645

σ = standard deviation = 7

n = sample size = 145

130 ± 1.645 × (7/√145)

130 ± 0.9562687005

130 - 0.9562687005 = 129.0437313

130 + 0.9562687005 = 130.9562687005

Therefore, approximately, the 90% confidence interval for the students' mean IQ score is between 129.045 - 130.956

Suppose f is a continuous function on [-2, 2) such that
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

2. a and b only.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can check all of the given conditions to see which is true and which false.

a. f(c)=0 for some c in (-2,2).

According to the intermediate value theorem this must be true, since the extreme values of the function are f(-2)=1 and f(2)=-1, so according to the theorem, there must be one x-value for which f(x)=0 (middle value between the extreme values) if the function is continuous.

b. the graph of f(-x)+x crosses the x-axis on (-2,2)

Let's test this condition, we will substitute x for the given values on the interval so we get:

f(-(-2))+(-2)

f(2)-2

-1-1=-3  lower limit

f(-2)+2

1+2=3 higher limit

according to these results, the graph must cross the x-axis at some point so the graph can move from f(x)=-3 to f(x)=3, so this must be true.

c. f(c)<1 for all c in (-2,2)

even though this might be true for some x-values of of the interval, there are some other points where this might not be the case. You can find one of those situations when finding f(-2)=1, which is a positive value of f(c), so this must be false.

The final answer is then 2. a and b only.
