9 is the geometric mean between 4 and which other number?

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer is A. 20.25

cause 20.25 x 9 = 81
√81 = 9
so 9 is the geometric mean between 4 and 20.25

Answers:

1a) y=-10/3x+90

1b) 20

1c) -18

2a) 2.8

2b) How much the heights of five basketball players vary from the average height.

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

Explanations:

1a) The trend line is linear, so we just need to find the slope and y-intercept to find an equation for it. Our y-intercept is (0,90), or 90, and our slope is -10/3. Our equation is now y=-10/3x+90.

1b) To find when x=21, we plug 21 into our equation where the x is. Now we do the math.

y=-10/3(21)+90 (plug in)

y=-70+90 (simplify by multiplying -10/3 by 21)

y=20 (simplify by adding -70 to 90)

Therefore, we can predict that when x is 21, y is 20.

1c) To find when y=150, we plug 150 into our equation where the y is. Now we do some more math.

150=-10/3x+90 (plug in)

60=-10/3x (subtract 90 from both sides

-18=x (divide both sides by -10/3)

Therefore, we can predict that when y is 150, x is -18.

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

2a) The mean absolute deviation (or MAD for short) of a data set is calculated as such:

Step 1) Find the mean (average) by finding the sum of the data values, then dividing the sum of the data values by the number of data values. In this case, we have the numbers 65, 58, 64, 61, and 67, which add up to 315. The data set has 5 numbers, so we divide our sum of 315 by 5 to get 63. Therefore, our mean is 63.

Step 2) Find the absolute value of the distance between each data value and the mean. In this case, we find out how far away each data value is from 63, our mean. To do this, we subtract 63 from each number.

65-63=2

58-63=-5

64-63=1

61-63=-2

67-63=4

Some of these values are negative, but we're using absolute value so they all become positive. We now have a new set of values: 2, 5, 1, 2, and 4.

Step 3) Finally, we calculate the mean of our new set of values. In this case, we will add up 2, 5, 1, 2, and 4 to get 14 and divide by 5 to get our MAD of 2.8. Therefore, the MAD (and the answer to problem 2a) is 2.8.

2b) Now we just find out what the MAD means in this context. The MAD always is a measure of variance in a data set. In this context, it's describing how much the heights (in inches) of five people on a basketball team vary from the average height.

Hope this helps!

A simple random sample from a population with a normal distribution of 99 body temperatures has xbar = 99.10°F and s = 0.64°F. C

The general formula for the margin of error is e = (zs)/√n, when the sample size is 30 or more (otherwise, we'd need to to a t-interval).

Since we're needing a 99% confidence interval, we need to know what the positive z-score associated with this two-tailed area under the normal curve is. This can be a little tricky if you're using a standard normal table. What you want is a two-tailed interval that has an area of .99. What this means is that the remaining 0.01 is divided into 0.005 on each end. This then means that, to the right of the mean (which is 0), the area is 0.005 less than the total right-half area of 0.5, or 0.495. The total cumulative area, then, includes this plus the left half of .5, or 0.5 + 0.495 = .0995.

Then, if all we have to go on is a cumulative standard normal table, then we need to find the area closest to 0.995 and find the corresponding z-score. This z-score is 2.58.

Now that we have the z-score, we can now plug in all the values into the formula.

e = (2.58 · 0.66)/√102 = 0.1686.

So the 99% confidence interval will be that far above and below the mean (which is 98.8). So the lower limit is 98.8 - 0.1686 = 98.631, and the upper limit is 98.8 + 0.1686 = 98.967.

The TI-84 method:

This is much easier, if you're allowed to use this technology. You begin with the STAT button, and then move over to the TESTS menu. Then select ZInterval. We have summary stats rather than data in this problem, so we select Stats as the input. For the standard deviation, we put 0.66, for x-bar 98.8, for n 102, and for C-level 0.99. Then select Calculate, and it will provide the interval at the top of the screen (98.632, 98.968). Note that the lower limit is slightly different by this method. This is because, when doing it by hand, we had to approximate the z-score. This created a rounding error, albeit a small one.

Solve for n 36=13n-4n

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

36 = 13n - 4n

<=> 36 = (13-4).n

<=> 36 = 9n

<=> n = 36 / 9

<=> n = 4
