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

The circumference of a circle that was computed when the diameter is 3cm will be 9.426cm.

<h3>How to find the circumference?</h3>

The circumference of a circle of gotten by the formula:

C = 2πr or πd

where,

r = radius

d = diameter

Since the diameter is given as 3cm, the circumference will be:

= πd

= 3.142 × 3

= 9.426cm

In conclusion, the circumference of the circle is 9.426cm.

Please help me I’m in finals a don’t want to fail
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1, 2, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

X <= 20 means that x has to be less than OR equal to 20.

The first option is -100. That's less than 20, so this statement is true.

The second option is 10. That's also less than 20, so this statement is also true.

The third option is 20. This is equal to 20, so this is also true.

The fourth option is 21, which is greater than 20, so it's not true.

The fifth option is 45, which is greater than 20, so it's not true.

Sorry I answered so late, hope this helps even though you probably don't need it anymore.

The sum of two numbers, x and y, is 12. The difference of x and two times y is 6. What are the values of x and y?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The answer is: x = 10, y = 2

Leave a thanks because your welcome :)

Work:

x + y = 12
(10) + (2)+  = 12
Correct

x - 2y = 6
(10) - 2(2) = 6
10 - 4 = 6
Correct
