Answer:

x = m × p - n

Step-by-step explanation:

$m = n + \frac{x}{p}$

We can first multiply both sides by p.

$m \times p = n + x$

And now we only have n left with x, so we subtract n on both sides.

$m \times p - n = x \\or \\ x = m \times p - n$

Scores on the SAT Mathematics test are believed to be normally distributed. The scores of a simple random sample of five student

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=584$

And the 95% confidence interval is given by:

$584-2.776\frac{86.776}{\sqrt{5}}=476.271$

$584+2.776\frac{86.776}{\sqrt{5}}=691.729$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (476.271;691.729)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:

$\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$ (2)

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}$ (3)

The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=584$

The sample deviation calculated $s=86.776$

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=5-1=4$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,4)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.776$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$584-2.776\frac{86.776}{\sqrt{5}}=476.271$

$584+2.776\frac{86.776}{\sqrt{5}}=691.729$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (476.271;691.729)

I need help with number 4 I can’t get an answer

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

14.93

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem you need to know distance formula, which is

d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)². You'll want to plug in (0,3) and (-2, 9) and go on to plug in all of them at some point. You'll get 6.32 as the distance between (0,3) and (-2, 9), 3.61 as the distance between (-2, 9) and (-4, 6), and 5 as the distance between (-4, 6) and (0, 3). You add them up and get your answer.

For a scale of 1cm: 12km what is the actual length represented by 1.7 cm

madreJ [45]

It would be 20.4 km because if 1cm is 12km then you just have to multiply 1.7 x 12 = 20.4.
