You measure 49 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 54 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 11

.7 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Use z = 2 for calculations

Answer:

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 54 ounces

Standard deviation r = 11.7 ounces

Number of samples n = 49

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 2

Substituting the values we have;

54+/-2(11.7/√49)

54+/-2(1.671428571428)

54+/-3.342857142857

54+/-3.34

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval (a,b)

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Thanks

Find the tenth term in the following geometric sequence. 8, 4, 2, 1, . . .
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

  c)  0.0156

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term a[n] of a geometric sequence is given in terms of the first term a[1] and common ratio r as ...

  a[n] = a[1]r^(n-1)

The given sequence has an initial term of a[1]=8 and a common ratio of 4/8=1/2. Then the general term is ...

  a[n] = 8(1/2)^(n-1)

The 10th term is then ...

  a[10] = 8(1/2)^(10-1) = 8(1/2)^9 = 8/512

  a[10] = 0.015625 ≈ 0.0156

Find the values of a and b such that x2 - 2x + 2 = (x -a) + b LOADS OF POINTS ON THE LINE!!!
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorize using square root method.

x² - 2x + 2 = (x-a)² + b

x² -2x + 1 + 1 = (x-a)²+b

(x² - 2*x*1 + 1²) + 1 = (x -a)²+ b       {Compare with a²- 2ab+b² which is (a - b)²}

(x - 1)² + 1 = (x - a)² + b

a = 1 and b = 1
