Answer:C. (77.29, 85.71)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine a 95% confidence interval for the mean test score of randomly selected students.

Number of sample, n = 25

Mean, u = 81.5

Standard deviation, s = 10.2

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean +/- z ×standard deviation/√n

It becomes

81.5 +/- 1.96 × 10.2/√25

= 81.5 +/- 1.96 × 2.04

= 81.5 +/- 3.9984

The lower end of the confidence interval is 81.5 - 3.9984 =77.5016

The upper end of the confidence interval is 81.5 + 3.9984 =85.4984

Therefore, the correct option is

C. (77.29, 85.71)

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to 3x+y=6 that passes through the point (0,8)​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

3x + y = 6

y =  - 3x + 6

The coefficient of x is the slope of the line , So the slope of the above equation is -3 .

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Remember from now on ,

Product of multiplying the slopes of two lines which are perpendicular to each other , is -1 .

Thus ;

( - 3) \times (m) =  - 1

m is the slope of the line which we want.

- 3m =  - 1

Negatives simplifies

3m = 1

Divide sides by 3

\frac{3m}{3}  =  \frac{1}{3}  \\

m =  \frac{1}{3}  \\

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

We have following equation to find the point-slope form of the linear functions :

y - y(0) = m(x - x(0))

x(0) and y(0) are the coordinates of the point which the line passed through.

y  - 8 =  \frac{1}{3} (x - 0) \\

y - 8 =  \frac{1}{3} x \\

Add sides 8

y =  \frac{1}{3} x + 8 \\

Done....

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
