A student organization wondered how many hours per week college students study during a term. Each of the 10 students in the org

anization asked 10 of their friends how much they typically studied each week. A​ 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours studied per week was​ (18,30). Are the conditions satisfied to use the confidence interval to make an inference to the population of​ interest?

Answer:

No, a convenience sample was taken.Therefore, the sample may not be representative of all college students in terms of number of hours studied per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the important conditions required in other to estimate the mean of the population from the confidence interval. Requires that the data must be a random Sample. This is to ensure that sample values are not biased and as such are representative of the larger group of data.

However, in the scenario described above, the sample chose. Are friend's of the student, this makes the data lack randomness as those who aren't friends to the student do not stand a chance of being selected. The sampling procedure employed is called convenience sampling.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (4,-6) and is parallel to the line y = -3/4x - 5
Karolina [17]

The equation that runs through the location (4,-6) has the slope-intercept form,  y=-\frac{3}{4}x-3 .

<h2>Formation of the equation</h2>

A line's equation written in the slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

where m= slope & b= y-intercept

The slope of two parallel lines is equal.

Currently, we know the line's equation:

y=-\frac{3}{4} x-5

here, slope, m= -\frac{3}{4}

A line equation is created by adding the slope's value and the point's coordinates (4, -6):

-6=-\frac{3}{4}(4)+b

⇒ -6=-3 +b [adding 3 to both sides]

⇒-3=b

⇒b= -3

Hence the solution is  y=-\frac{3}{4}x-3 .

There are 10 cards. Each card has one number between 1 and 10, so that every number from 1 to 10 appears once.
pychu [463]

Answer:

When a card is chosen at random with replacement five times, X is the number of times a prime number is chosen.          Here the card is chosen with replacement.  This implies probability for choosing a prime number remains the same as the previously drawn card is replaced.

The sample space= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}

Prime numbers = {2,3,5,7}

Prob for drawing prime number = 4/10 = 0.4

is the same when replacement is done.

Also there are two outcomes either prime or non prime.  Hence in this case, X the no of times a prime number is chosen, is binomial with p =0.4 and q = 0.6 and n=5


When a card is chosen at random without replacement three times, X is the number of times an even number is chosen.

Prob for an even number = 0.5

But after one card drawn say odd number next card has prob for even number as 5/9 hence each draw is not independent of the other.  Hence not binomial.

When a card is chosen at random with replacement six times, X is the number of times a 3 is chosen.

Here since every time replacement is done, probability of drawing a 3 remains constant = 1/10 = 0.3

i.e. each draw is independent of the other and there are only two outcomes , 3 or non 3. Hence here X is binomial.

When a card is chosen at random with replacement multiple times, X is the number of times a card is chosen until a 5 is chosen

Here X is the number of times a card is chosen with replacement till 5 is chosen.  This is not binomial.  Here probability for drawing nth time correct 5 is  P(non 5 in the first n-1 draws)*P(5 in nth draw) = 0.1^(n-1) (0.9)

Because nCr is not appearing i.e. 5 cannot appear in any order but only in the last draw, this is not binomial.

PLEASE HELP
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I will solve this problem, using the elimination method.

-2(5x - 3y) = -11

-10x + 6y = 22

2x - 6y = -14

Subtract and divide for x

-8x = 8

x = -1

Input -1 into the equations

2(-1) - 6y = -14

-6y - 2 = -14

-6y = -12

y = 2

Thanks!

Donna bought 5 bags of dog treats for $10.90. What is the cost per bag of dog treats? A. $0.46 B. $2.73 C. $15.90 D. $2.18
Juliette [100K]

Answer: $2.18

Step-by-step explanation:

 You are trying to solve for the cost of one bag or unit cost. Take

  the amount of money spent and divide it by the number of bags

  purchased.

  10.90 ÷ 5 = 2.18
