points A is 5,623m above sea level.points B is below sea level at -1,245m. what is the distance between the two points?

Distances are always positive. Find the distance of point A above sea level (sea level is our reference point). Then find the distance of B below sea level (again remembering that distances are always positive). Then sum up the resulting 2 positive numbers to obtain the distance between A and B:

5623 m + 1245 m = ?

If you go from point A to sea level, you need to go down 5,623 m.
If you go from point B to sea level, you need to go up 1,6,868 m245 m.
Add the two distances to find the distance between the points.

5,623 m + 1, 245 m = 6,868 m

What is the answer to this inequality question 2(4x+1)<3(2x-3)

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x < -7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x + 1) < 3(2x - 3)

Distributive Property:

8x + 8 < 6x - 6

Subtract on Both Sides:

8x + 8 < 6x - 6

- 6x -6x

--------------------

2x + 8 < - 6

-8 -8

---------------

2x < -14

Divide on Both Sides:

2x < -14

Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean, mu. Assume the population has a normal distribution. A group of 1

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

99% confidence interval for the population mean is [19.891 , 24.909].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a group of 19 randomly selected students has a mean age of 22.4 years with a standard deviation of 3.8 years.

Assuming the population has a normal distribution.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean age of selected students = 22.4 years

s = sample standard deviation = 3.8 years

n = sample of students = 19

$\mu$ = population mean

<em>Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used t statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.</em>

So, 99% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.878 < $t_1_8$ < 2.878) = 0.99 {As the critical value of t at 18 degree of

freedom are -2.878 & 2.878 with P = 0.5%}

P(-2.878 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.878) = 0.99

P( $-2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

P( $\bar X -2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X +2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.99

<u>99% confidence interval for</u> $\mu$ = [ $\bar X -2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ , $\bar X +2.878 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ ]

= [ $22.4 -2.878 \times {\frac{3.8}{\sqrt{19} }$ , $22.4 +2.878 \times {\frac{3.8}{\sqrt{19} }$ ]

= [19.891 , 24.909]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for the population mean is [19.891 , 24.909].
