Answer:

x = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2 chocolates 5 chocolates

--------------------- = ------------------

72 calories x calories

Using cross products

2 *x = 5*72

2x = 360

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 360/2

x = 180

Set up a ratio 2/72 = 5/x.

Now use cross-products.

(2)(x) = (5)(72).

2x = 360.

Now divide both sides by 2.

This gives us x = 180.

So, Jodi consumes 180 chocolates when she eats 5 chocolates.

A study was conducted in order to estimate μ, the mean number of weekly hours that U.S. adults use computers at home. Suppose a

Answer:

The point estimate for $\mu$ is 8.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

In this problem

We are working with a sample of 81 adults, so the point estimae of the mean is the mean number of weekly hours that U.S. adults use computers at home.

So, the point estimate for $\mu$ is 8.5 hours.
