Answer: median = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the most common measure of center which is synonymous to average. However, the mean is affected by extreme values so it may not be the best measure of center to use in a skewed distribution.

The median is the value in the center of the data. Half of the values are less than the median and half of the values are more than the median. It is probably the best measure of center to use in a skewed distribution.

The median of

0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 14

Median = (1+2)/2 = 1.5

The answer is: x is choose your answer
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

All real numbers

Let's find the critical points of the inequality.

−4x+7=17

−4x+7+−7=17+−7(Add -7 to both sides)

−4x=10

−4x−1=10−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

4x=−10

4x=−10(Solve Exponent)

log(4x)=log(−10)(Take log of both sides)

x*(log(4))=log(−10)

x=log(−10)log(4)

x=NaN

There are 2,000 eligible voters in a precinct. A total of 500 voters are randomly selected and asked whether they plan to vote f
Ann [662]

Answer:

0.7 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.647

0.7 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.753

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.647;0.753).

So the correct answer would be:

a. 0.647 and 0.753

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

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 population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

Solution to the problem

The estimated population proportion for this case is:

\hat p = \frac{350}{500}=0.7

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

For the 99% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2=0.005, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.7 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.647

0.7 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.753

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.647;0.753).

So the correct answer would be:

a. 0.647 and 0.753

Evaluate the following using<br> powers of ten rules.<br> 104)1.042
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

0.0001042

Step-by-step explanation:

Power of tens rule states that if the denominator of a fraction has the positive power of 10, decimal in the numerator will be shifted to the left by the same number of places as exponent.

10⁴) 1.042 = \frac{1.042}{10^4}

In the denominator of the given fraction, exponent of 10 = +4

So the decimal in numerator will be shifted left by 4 places.

\frac{1.042}{10^4}=0.0001042

Therefore, answer is 0.0001042
