Answer:

A) sample mean = $1.36 million

B) standard deviation = $0.9189 million

C) confidence interval = ($1.93 million , $0.79 million)

*since the sample size is very small, the confidence interval is not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

samples:

  1. $2.7 million
  2. $2.4 million
  3. $2.2 million
  4. $2 million
  5. $1.5 million
  6. $1.5 million
  7. $0.5 million
  8. $0.5 million
  9. $0.2 million
  10. $0.1 million

sample mean = $1.36 million

the standard deviation:

  • $2.7 million - $1.36 million = 1.34² = 1.7956
  • $2.4 million - $1.36 million = 1.04² = 1.0816
  • $2.2 million - $1.36 million = 0.84² = 0.7056
  • $2 million - $1.36 million = 0.64² = 0.4096
  • $1.5 million - $1.36 million = 0.14² = 0.0196
  • $1.5 million - $1.36 million = 0.14² = 0.0196
  • $0.5 million - $1.36 million = -0.86² = 0.7396
  • $0.5 million - $1.36 million = -0.86² = 0.7396
  • $0.2 million - $1.36 million = -1.16² = 1.3456
  • $0.1 million - $1.36 million = -1.26² = 1.5876
  • total $8.444 million / 10 = $0.8444 million

standard deviation = √0.8444 = 0.9189

95% confidence interval = mean +/- 1.96 standard deviations/√n:

$1.36 million + [(1.96 x $0.9189 million)/√10] = $1.36 million + $0.57 million = $1.93 million

$1.36 million - $0.57 million = $0.79 million

Someone help me with my math homework pleaseee. Find the volumes of the pyramids and the height is 7cm for the first one.
gregori [183]
\bf \textit{volume of a pyramid}\\\\
V=\cfrac{1}{3}Bh\qquad 
\begin{cases}
B=\textit{area of the base}\\
h=height
\end{cases}

now, the first one, on the far-left.... can't see the height.. but I gather you do, now as far as its Base area, well, the bottom is just a 12x12 square, so the area of its base is just 12*12


now, the middle pyramid, has a height of 6, the base is also a square, 8x8, so the Base area is just 8*8

now the last one on the far-right

has a height of 8, the Base is a Hexagon, with sides of 6

\bf \textit{area of a regular polygon}\\\\
A=\cfrac{1}{4}ns^2cot\left( \frac{180}{n} \right)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=\textit{number of sides}\\
s=\textit{length of one side}\\
\frac{180}{n}=\textit{angle in degrees}\\
----------\\
n=6\\
s=6
\end{cases}\\\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{4}\cdot 6\cdot 6^2\cdot cot\left( \frac{180}{6} \right)

Answer:
First choice is the correct one

Explanation:
The given is:
[(x+5) / (x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)]
First, we will need to have a common denominator and then we will solve the subtraction normally. To get a common denominator, we will have to multiply both numerator and denominator of first term by x.

Therefore:
[(x+5) / (x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)] = [x(x+5) / x(x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)]
                                                 = [x(x+5)-(x+1)] / [x(x+2)]
                                                 = (x^2 + 5x - x - 1) / [x(x+2)]
                                                 = [(x^2 + 4x - 1)] / [x(x+2)]

Hope this helps :)

Richard practiced each of 3 piano solos for 5/12 hour. how long did he practice in all?
maksim [4K]
You are given Richard’s piano practice for 3 piano solos. Every piano sol he makes takes 5/12 hour. You are asked to find how long Richard is going to practice his piano solo. So we have for every 1 piano solo he makes this is equal to 5/12 hours. This can be best represented by ratio and proportion.  

1 piano solo/(5/12 hour) = 3 piano solo/(number of hours)
Number of hours = 3 piano solo/ (1 piano solo/5/12 hours)
<u>Number of hours = 5/4 hours or 1.25 hours.</u>
