Answer:

a = 15/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

(2a-5)/6 = 5/12

Cross multiply:

12(2a - 5) = 5*6

24a - 60 = 30

24a = 90

a = 90/24

a = 15/4.

Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean using the appropriate distributions. a. A random sample of 50 peop

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 50

Mean = 27.7

Standard deviation = 6.12

We need to construct 95% confidence interval for the population.

so, z = 1.96

So, it becomes,

$\bar{x}\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=27.7\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{6.12}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=27.7 \pm 1.69\\\\=(27.7-1.69,27.7+1.69)\\\\=(26.01,29.39)$

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (26.01,29.39).

Solve the inequality<br> -2(y+5)+22>12-2y

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

There are no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Always remember to simplify both sides of the inequality.

$-2y+12>-2y+12$

Add 2y to both sides.

$-2y+12+2y>-2y+12+2y\\12>12$

Subtract 12 from both sides.

$12-12>12-12\\0>0$
