If a taxpayer has an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $27.000, donates $3500

Determine whether the given value is a statistic or a parameter. A sample of seniors is selected and it is found that 65% own a

sp2606 [1]

Answer: A. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.

Step-by-step explanation: Statistic are used to describe values obtained from a data sample which are regarded as a subset of the data belonging to an entire population. Therefore, in statistical parlance, numerical measurement obtained from such dataset are called statistic. On the other hand, if data from which a numerical derivation was made is a population which consists of the entire set of observations belonging to a particular group of interest, then the numerical values obtained are referred to as a parameter.

If 5 boxes of cereal cost $27.50, how much does one box of cereal cost? a) $5.50 b) $5.05 c) $550 d) .55

olga_2 [115]

}

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation: I said that because you have 27 and 50 Cent so basically you won't have that $5 in that picture because you still going to have that $0.04 and then you still have to have that much so I I think I am right but if I'm not I'm so sorry but I'm taking not even to get I'm trying to get back on track but I think is b for a reason like I think you could be because you have 27 and 50 Cent so if you got twenty-seven fifty cents you just rounding it down

A 6m ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder is 1.3m from the wall at time =0sec and slides away from the wall at

icang [17]

Answer:

- 0.100

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the ladder, H = 6 m

Distance at the bottom from the wall, B = 1.3 m

Let the distance of top of the ladder from the bottom at the wall is P

Thus,

from Pythagoras theorem,

B² + P² = H² .

or

B² + P² = 6² ..............(1) [Since length of the ladder remains constant]

at B = 1.3 m

1.3² + P² = 6²

or

P² = 36 - 1.69

or

P² = 34.31

or

P = 5.857

Now,

differentiating (1)

$2B(\frac{dB}{dt})+2P(\frac{dP}{dt})=0$

at t = 2 seconds

change in B = 0.3 × 2= 0.6 ft

Thus,

at 2 seconds

B = 1.3 + 0.6 = 1.9 m

therefore,

1.9² + P² = 6²

or

P = 5.69 m

on substituting the given values,

2(1.9)(0.3) + 2(5.69) × $(\frac{dP}{dt})$ = 0

or

1.14 + 11.38 × $(\frac{dP}{dt})$ = 0

or

11.38 × $(\frac{dP}{dt})$ = - 1.14

or

$(\frac{dP}{dt})$ = - 0.100

here, negative sign means that the velocity is in downward direction as upward is positive

Assume the readings on thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. Find the pro

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.

The sketch is drawn at the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C.

This means that $\mu = 0, \sigma = 1$

Find the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69

This is the p-value of Z when X = -1.69 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = -2.23.

X = -1.69

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{-1.69 - 0}{1}$

$Z = -1.69$

$Z = -1.69$ has a p-value of 0.0455

X = -2.23

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{-2.23 - 0}{1}$

$Z = -2.23$

$Z = -2.23$ has a p-value of 0.0129

0.0455 - 0.0129 = 0.0326

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.
