The class sizes of elementary school classes in a public school district are normally distributed with an unknown population mea

n and standard deviation. A random sample of 27 classes is taken and results in a sample mean of 20 students and sample standard deviation of 6 students. The margin of error for a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is 2.86. Find a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution.

Answer: (17.14,\ 22.86)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval estimate for the population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm ME, where \overline{x} is the sample mean and ME  is the margin of error.

Given : Sample mean: \overline{x}=20

The margin of error for a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution : ME=2.86

Now, the confidence interval estimate for the population mean will be :-

20\pm2.86=(20-2.86,\ 20+2.86)=(17.14,\ 22.86)

Hence, the 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution =  (17.14,\ 22.86)

An English professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 15% of scores B: Scores below the
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

59 to 66

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean test scores = u = 74.2

Standard Deviation = \sigma = 9.6

According to the given data, following is the range of grades:

Grade A: 85% to 100%

Grade B: 55% to 85%

Grade C: 19% to 55%

Grade D: 6% to 19%

Grade F: 0% to 6%

So, the grade D will be given to the students from 6% to 19% scores. We can convert these percentages to numerical limits using the z scores. First we need to to identify the corresponding z scores of these limits.

6% to 19% in decimal form would be 0.06 to 0.19. Corresponding z score for  0.06 is -1.56 and that for 0.19 is -0.88 (From the z table)

The formula for z score is:

z=\frac{x-u}{\sigma}

For z = -1.56, we get:

-1.56=\frac{x-74.2}{9.6}\\\\ x = 59

For z = -0.88, we get:

-0.88=\frac{x-74.2}{9.6}\\\\ x = 66

Therefore, a numerical limits for a D grade would be from 59 to 66 (rounded to nearest whole numbers)

What is the following product? (5 square root 2-4 square root 3) (5 square root 2-4 square root 3)
Zina [86]

Answer:

(5 square root 2-4 square root 3) (5 square root 2-4 square root 3)

=   98 - 40\sqrt{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

i) (5\sqrt{2} - 4\sqrt{3}) × (5√2 - 4√3)

=(5\sqrt{2} × 5\sqrt{2}) - (5\sqrt{2} × 4\sqrt{3}) - (4\sqrt{3} × 5\sqrt{2}) + (4\sqrt{3} × 4\sqrt{3})

= 50 - 20\sqrt{6} - 20\sqrt{6} + 48

= 98 - 40\sqrt{6}
