The given standard deviation of a population (σ) = 7.8

sample size (N) = 85

We have to find standard error of the mean.

The formula to find standard error of the mean

= (standard deviation of the distribution) / (square root of sample size)

= (σ) / (√N)

= 7.8 / (√85)

= 7.8 / 9.219544457

= 0.8460

= 0.85 (approximately taken to two decimal places)

We have got the required answer.

The standard error of the mean is 0.85.

Find X: Solving Linear Equations With A Variable On Only One Side Of The Equation.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

x = 22 (see explanation!)

Step-by-step explanation:

Just with any algebraic equation, you will want to isolate the variable (x). Here's a step-by-step to show you how it's done:

1/7(x + 6) = 4

Multiply by 7 to get rid of the 1/7 (since 7 * 1/7 = 7/7 = 1)

7*1/7(x+6) = 7*4

x+6 = 28

Now, subtract 6 from both sides to isolate x:

x + 6 - 6 = 28 - 6

Finally:

x = 22

Radius of a Circle Formula: r = d/2

r is radius
d is diameter

Area of a Circle Formula: A = πr²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Diameter d = 18 units

Step 2: Manipulate Variables

Radius r = 18 units/2 = 9 units

Step 3: Find Area

Substitute in r [Area of a Circle Formula]: A = π(9 units)²
[Area] Evaluate exponents: A = π(81 units²)
[Area] Multiply: A = 81π units²

Emma puts $1000 in a savings account that pays 4% interest, compounded monthly. How much money will be in the account 3 years la

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Option A. $\$1,127.27$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=3\ years\\ P=\$1,000\\ r=0.04\\n=12$

substitute in the formula above

$A=\$1,000(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12*3}=\$1,127.27$
