Answer:

(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_}{n_2}}

And replacing we got:

(9.2 -8.8) - 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.2903

(9.2 -8.8) + 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.5097

And the confidence interval for the difference of means would be given by:

0.2903 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 0.5097

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".  

We have the following data given:

\bar X_1 = 9.2 , \bar X_2 = 8.8, \sigma_1= 0.3, n_1 = 27, \sigma_2 = 0.1, n_2 = 30

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 93% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.93=0.07 and \alpha/2 =0.035. And the critical value would be given by:  

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.811, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.811  

The confidence interval is given by:

(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_}{n_2}}

And replacing we got:

(9.2 -8.8) - 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.2903

(9.2 -8.8) + 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.5097

And the confidence interval for the difference of means would be given by:

0.2903 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 0.5097

According to the general equation for conditional probability, if P(A, B) =4/7
Neko [114]

Answer:

P(A|B) = \frac{32}{49}

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

In which

P(A|B) is the probability of event A happening, given that B happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(B) is the probability of B happening.

We have that:

P(A \cap B) = \frac{4}{7}, P(B) = \frac{7}{8}

So

P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{\frac{4}{7}}{\frac{7}{8}} = \frac{4}{7}*\frac{8}{7} = \frac{32}{49}

Then

P(A|B) = \frac{32}{49}

Please help! (Geometry)
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

x=5

From the dashed lines on the two sides of this triangle, we can see that these two sides are congruent, or equal, to each other.

In geometry, if a triangle has two congruent sides, then we can call it a <em>isosceles triangle</em>.

In an isosceles triangle, the corners  opposite the congruent  sides  are also congruent, meaning, that the angle measures of this triangle are: 88, 9x+1, and 9x+1.

We also know that angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

So, we have: 88+(9x+1)+(9x+1) = 180

Simplifying: 18x + 2 = 92

Solving: 18x = 90, so x=5

Hope this helps!
