According to the U.S. Department of Education. Institute of Education Sciences, National Center for Education Statistics 1,026,0

00 high school seniors (rounded to the nearest thousand) took the ACT test as part of the college admissions process. The mean composite score was 21.1 with a standard deviation of 4.8. The ACT composite score ranges from 1 to 36, with higher scores indicating greater achievement in high school.
According to the central limit theorem, what are the mean and standard error of the distribution of sample means for a sample of 50 students?

a. 50 and 21.1

b. 21.1 and 4.8

Answer:

The correct option is C) 21.1 and 0.68  

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The mean composite score was 21.1 with a standard deviation of 4.8. The ACT composite score ranges from 1 to 36, with higher scores indicating greater achievement in high school.

Therefore μ = 21.1 and σ = 4.8

It is given that the sample of 50 students;

Thus, sample size ( n ) = 50

According to the central limit theorem,

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu\ and \ \sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Therefore

\mu_{\bar x}=21.1

\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{4.8}{\sqrt{50}}

\sigma_{\bar x}=0.68

Hence, the correct option is C) 21.1 and 0.68

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the easiest way to go about this is to choose on of the answers and fill it in to see if it's correct. Since you only have 4 possible answers, there's no need to actually solve this.

In the question it already tells us that x does not equal 0, so that answer is automatically not correct. Now your down to three possible answers.

Start with -3. First, fill in the x with -3 for what the equation is supposed to equal. That gives you 3/-3. Simplified, that is -1. Now put -3 in for the x in the equation. That gives you 3/2(-3) + 1/2. After running that through your calculator or solving it, you end up with 0. So -3 is not your answer.

Next we'll try the 2. Do as we did last time, and fill in the x on the answer part of the equation. You now have 3/2. That doesn't simplify so it stays as is. Now for the equation. That makes it 3/2(2) +1/2. Put that in your calculator or solve, and you get 5/4. 5/4 does not equal 3/2 so 2 is not your answer.

That leaves 3. You can go ahead and run through the steps above using 3 if you want to double check, but since it's the only answer left, there isn't really a need to.

Hope this helps :)

Nataliya [291]
Use substitution and substitute y into the other equation. One of the equations already gives you y in terms of x, so use that and substitute it into the other equation. y = 3x - 4

Plug into the other equation: -3y = -9x + 12 
-3(3x-4) = -9x + 12
-9x + 12 = -9x + 12
This is an identity. So that means that any value of x makes this equation true. So B.
