Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the measure of segment BC must equal the addition of the measure of segment BA plus the measure of segment AC, we can write this in equation form:

BC = BA + AC

then we replace them with the measure information they provide:

12 x + 4 = 7 x - 4 + 8 x + 2

and we solve for x in the equation:

12 x + 4 = 15 x - 2

subtract 12 x from both sides:

4 = 15 x - 12 x - 2

4 = 3 x - 2

add 2 on both sides

4 + 2 = 3 x

6 = 3 x

x = 6/3

x = 2

Assume that we want to construct a confidence interval. Do one of the following, as appropriate:_________.

Answer:

B. z Subscript alpha divided by 2 zα/2 = 1.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that we want to construct a confidence interval. For this, the summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls:

n = 236, $\bar x$ = 30.3 hg, s = 7.2 hg. The confidence level is 95%.

As we can clearly see here that the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is also very large.

It has been stated that when the population standard deviation is unknown, we should use t-distribution but since the sample size is very large so we can use z distribution also as it is stated that at very large samples; the t-distribution corresponds to the z-distribution.

Here, $\alpha$ = level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 or 5%
