Answer:

(a)\ \bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0

(b)\ CI =(1.0542,2.9458)

(c)\ CI = (0.8730,2.1270)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n_1 = 60     n_2 = 35      

\bar x_1 = 13.6    \bar x_2 = 11.6    

\sigma_1 = 2.1     \sigma_2 = 3

Solving (a): Point estimate of difference of mean

This is calculated as: \bar x_1 - \bar x_2

\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 13.6 - 11.6

\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0

Solving (b): 90% confidence interval

We have:

c = 90\%

c = 0.90

Confidence level is: 1 - \alpha

1 - \alpha = c

1 - \alpha = 0.90

\alpha = 0.10

Calculate z_{\alpha/2}

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.10/2}

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05}

The z score is:

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05} =1.645

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}

2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}

2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}

2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}

2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.3306}

2.0 \± 0.9458

Split

(2.0 - 0.9458) \to (2.0 + 0.9458)

(1.0542) \to (2.9458)

Hence, the 90% confidence interval is:

CI =(1.0542,2.9458)

Solving (c): 95% confidence interval

We have:

c = 95\%

c = 0.95

Confidence level is: 1 - \alpha

1 - \alpha = c

1 - \alpha = 0.95

\alpha = 0.05

Calculate z_{\alpha/2}

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05/2}

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025}

The z score is:

z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025} =1.96

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}

2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}

2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}

2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}

2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{0.3306}

2.0 \± 1.1270

Split

(2.0 - 1.1270) \to (2.0 + 1.1270)

(0.8730) \to (2.1270)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval is:

CI = (0.8730,2.1270)

In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude:
Effectus [21]

Answer:  C. Definition of an Altitude

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude from the right angle.

Let ∠MNP=x

Then ∠PNO=90°-x

Therefore in triangle MNO,

∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of Altitude]

[Definition of altitude : A line which passes through a vertex of a triangle, and joins the opposite side forming right angles. ]

Now using angle sum property in ΔMNP

∠MNP+∠MPN+∠PMN=180°

⇒x+90°+∠PMN=180°

⇒∠PMN=180°-90°-x

⇒∠PMN=90°-x

Now, in ΔMNO and ΔPNO

∠PMN=∠PNO=90°-x

and ∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of altitude]

Therefore by AA similarity postulate, we have

ΔMNO ≈ ΔPNO

Find the slope of the line that contains (-1,9) and (9,9).
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have 2 points, we can find the slope from

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (9-9)/(9--1)

   = 0/(9+1)

    = 0/10
