What is the reason for an outlier in a graph?

1 answer:

7 0

It is sometimes called an extreme value. When you graph an outlier, it will appear not to fit the pattern of the graph. Some outliers are due to mistakes (for example, writing down 50 instead of 500) while others may indicate that something unusual is happening

HELP URGENT STEP FUNCTIONS!!!!!!! Used books cost $2.25 each. Which expression represents the total number of books that can be

irinina [24]

Answer:

A. $\left \lfloor \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rfloor$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

The cost of one book = $2.25

Since, it takes $2.25 to buy 1 book.

The, for $10, we can get $\frac{1}{2.25}\times 10$ i.e. $\frac{10}{2.25}$ = 4.44

Since, number of books cannot be in decimals.

So, the closest integer to 4.44 is 4.

Hence, we can buy 4 books from $10.

Now, according to the options:

A. $\left \lfloor \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rfloor = \left \lfloor 4.44\right \rfloor = 4$

B. $\left \lceil \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rceil = \left \lceil 4.44 \right \rceil=5$

C. $\frac{10}{\left \lceil 2.25\right \rceil} =\frac{10}{3} =0.33$

D. $\frac{10}{\left \lfloor 2.25\right \rfloor} = \frac{10}{2} = 5$

Hence, we see that from the options, A is correct.

Which statement best describes a method that can be used to sketch the graph. y = |x - 2| a. Translate the graph of y = |x| two

ser-zykov [4K]

f(x) + n - translate the graph of f(x) n units up

f(x) - n - translate the graph of f(x) n units down

f(x + n) - translate the graph of f(x) n units left

f(x - n) - translate the graph of f(x) n units right

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

We have

y = |x - 2|

f(x) = |x| → f(x - 2) = |x - 2|

<h3>Answer: c. Translate the graph of y = |x| two units right.</h3>

Suppose that the population of the scores of all high school seniors who took the SAT Math (SAT-M) test this year follows a Norm

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Confidence = $1-\alpha=1-0.01=0.99$

And then the confidence level would be given by 99%

Step-by-step explanation:

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".

Assuming the X follows a normal distribution

$X \sim N(\mu, \sigma)$

The distribution for the sample mean is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

$\bar x =512$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=100$ represent the population standard deviation

n= 100 sample size selected.

The confidence interval is given by this formula:

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

The marginof error for this case is given by Me=25.76. And we know that the formula for the margin of error is given by:

$Me=z_{\alpha/2} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$25.76=z_{\alpha/2} \frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}$

And we can find the critical value $z_{\alpha/2}$ like this:

$z_{\alpha/2}=\frac{25.76(\sqrt{100})}{100}=2.576$

And we know that on the right tail of the z score =2.576 we have $\alpha/2$ of the total area. We can find the area on the right of the z score using this excel code:

"=1-NORM.DIST(2.576,0,1,TRUE)" or using a table of the normal standard distribution, and we got 0.004998= $\alpha/2$ , so then $\alpha=0.00498*2=0.009995 \approx 0.01$ , and then we can find the confidence like this:

Confidence = $1-\alpha=1-0.01=0.99$

And then the confidence level would be given by 99%
