Answer:

The margin of error for the true mean number of hours a teenager spends on their phone is of 0.4 hours a day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation of the saple, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 50 - 1 = 49

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 49 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.4

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The margin of error for the true mean number of hours a teenager spends on their phone is of 0.4 hours a day.

the measurement of one angle of a right angle is 42 degrees what is the measurement of the third angle
kogti [31]
The angles of a triangle all add up to 180°. In fact, it can be generalized that the sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is equal to 180°(n–2). 

A right triangle must have a right angle, which is equal to 90°. If the other angle is 42°, that means that we can find the third angle by subtracting 90° + 42° from 180°.

x = 180° – (90° + 42°) = 48°

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 92 and 128 are 3 standard deviations from the mean

The emperical rule or the  68–95–99.7 rule states that 68% of outcomes are wihtin 1 standard deviation from the mean

95% of outcomes are within 2 standard deviations from the mean

99.7% of outcomes are within 3 standard devations from the mean

This is 3 standard deviations so the answer is 99.7
