A random sample of 81 automobiles traveling on a section of an interstate showed an average speed of 60 mph. The distribution of

speeds of all cars on this section of highway is normally distributed, with a standard deviation of 13.5 mph.

Answer:

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(60,13.5)  

Where \mu=60 and \sigma=13.5

And for this case we select a sample size of n= 81. Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard error of the mean would be:

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{13.5}{\sqrt{81}}= 1.5

4.1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(60,13.5)  

Where \mu=60 and \sigma=13.5

And for this case we select a sample size of n= 81. Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard error of the mean would be:

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{13.5}{\sqrt{81}}= 1.5

Select all the ordered pairs that make this statement true?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: (24,-9)

(0,9)

(4,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 36

Using (3,-2) will be:

= 3(3) + 4(-2)

= 9 - 8 = 1

Using (1,7) will be

= 3(1) + 4(7)

= 3 + 28 = 31

Using (0,0) equals to 0

Using (24,-9) will be:

= 3(24) +4( -9)

= 72 - 36 = 36

Using (0,9) will be:

= 3(0) + 4(9)

= 0 + 36 = 36

Using (4,6) will be:

3(4) + 4(6)

= 12 + 24

= 36

Using (-12,18) will be:

= 3(-12) + 4(-18)

= -36 - 72

= -108

The correct options are (24,-9), (0,9 and (4,6)

ELEN [110]
Subtract.

596 3/5 - (-81.8)            [81.8 is below sea level so it is negative]
566.6 + 81.8                  [Convert to decimal and distribute negative]
= 678.4 feet
