Which of the following inequalities are correct?

If two samples A and B had the same mean and standard deviation, but sample A had a larger sample size, which sample would have

Advocard [28]

<h3>Answer: Sample B as it has the smaller sample (choice #4)</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Recall that the margin of error (MOE) is defined as

MOE = z*s/sqrt(n)

The sample size n is located in the denominator, meaning that as n gets bigger, the MOE gets smaller. The same happens in reverse: as n gets smaller, the MOE gets bigger.

Put another way, a small sample size means we have more error because small samples mean they are less representative of the population at large. The bigger a sample is, the better estimate we will have of the parameter.

We are told that "sample A had a larger sample size" indicating that sample A has a more narrow confidence interval.

Therefore, sample B would have a wider confidence interval.

This is true regardless of what the confidence level is set at.

What is -7n-4=24 lol i hate homework

Montano1993 [528]

It's a simple linear equation in 'n'. There's only one number that 'n' can be
that will make the equation a true statement. That number is called the
'solution' to the equation. Here's one way to find it:

You said that  -7n - 4 = 24

Add 4 to each side: -7n = 28

Multiply each side by -1 : 7n = -28

Divide each side by 7 : n = -4

Homework is the only way for most people to learn stuff.

In a recent study on world happiness, participants were asked to evaluate their current lives on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0

uysha [10]

Answer:

a) A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 5.9

Standard Deviation, σ = 2.2

We assume that the distribution of response is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.92

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.92$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 1.405\\x = 8.991 \approx 8.9$

A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.62$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 0.305\\x = 6.571 \approx 6.6$

A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.25

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.25$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = -0.674\\x = 4.4172 \approx 4.4$

A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

Identify the volume of the composite figure, rounded to the nearest tenth. PLEASE HELP!!!

Anni [7]

Answer:

The volume of the composite figure is:

312 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the volume of the composite figure, you can divide it in the known figures there, in this case, you can divide the figure in a cube and a pyramid with a square base. Now, we find the volume of each figure and finally add the two volumes.

VOLUME OF THE CUBE.

Finding the volume of a cube is actually simple, you only must follow the next formula:

Volume of a cube = base * height * width

So:

Volume of a cube = 6 ft * 6 ft * 6 ft
Volume of a cube = 216 ft^3

VOLUME OF THE PYRAMID.

The volume of a pyramid with a square base is:

Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 B * h

Where:

B = area of the base.

h = height.

How you can remember, the area of a square is base * height, so B = 6 ft * 6 ft = 36 ft^2, now we can replace in the formula:

Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 36 ft^2 * 8 ft
Volume of a pyramid = 96 ft^3

Finally, we add the volumes found:

Volume of the composite figure = 216 ft^3 + 96 ft^3
Volume of the composite figure = 312 ft^3

Solve for y -3y-12=-4

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

−8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add 12 to both sides.

−3y−12+12=−4+12

−3y=8

Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.

−3y−3=8−3

y=−8/3
