Answer:

<h3>50</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is represented according to the equation;

Speed = Distance/Time

Given;

Distance d = 400km

Time t = 8 hours

From the formula

s = d/t

s = 400/8

s = 50

Substitute s = 50 back into the formula;

s = d/t

50 = d/t

d = 50t

This expression means that the speed is directly proportional to t where 50 is the constant of proportionality;

Hence the constant of proportionality for the relationship between distance in kilometers and number of hours is 50

Answer:

$E[X^2]= \frac{2!}{2^1 1!}= 1$

$Var(X^2)= 3-(1)^2 =2$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can use the moment generating function for the normal model given by:

$\phi(t) = E[e^{tX}]$

And this function is very useful when the distribution analyzed have exponentials and we can write the generating moment function can be write like this:

$\phi(t) = C \int_{R} e^{tx} e^{-\frac{x^2}{2}} dx = C \int_R e^{-\frac{x^2}{2} +tx} dx = e^{\frac{t^2}{2}} C \int_R e^{-\frac{(x-t)^2}{2}}dx$

And we have that the moment generating function can be write like this:

$\phi(t) = e^{\frac{t^2}{2}$

And we can write this as an infinite series like this:

$\phi(t)= 1 +(\frac{t^2}{2})+\frac{1}{2} (\frac{t^2}{2})^2 +....+\frac{1}{k!}(\frac{t^2}{2})^k+ ...$

And since this series converges absolutely for all the possible values of tX as converges the series e^2, we can use this to write this expression:

$E[e^{tX}]= E[1+ tX +\frac{1}{2} (tX)^2 +....+\frac{1}{n!}(tX)^n +....]$

$E[e^{tX}]= 1+ E[X]t +\frac{1}{2}E[X^2]t^2 +....+\frac{1}{n1}E[X^n] t^n+...$

and we can use the property that the convergent power series can be equal only if they are equal term by term and then we have:

$\frac{1}{(2k)!} E[X^{2k}] t^{2k}=\frac{1}{k!} (\frac{t^2}{2})^k =\frac{1}{2^k k!} t^{2k}$

And then we have this:

$E[X^{2k}]=\frac{(2k)!}{2^k k!}, k=0,1,2,...$

And then we can find the $E[X^2]$

$E[X^2]= \frac{2!}{2^1 1!}= 1$

And we can find the variance like this :

$Var(X^2) = E[X^4]-[E(X^2)]^2$

And first we find:

$E[X^4]= \frac{4!}{2^2 2!}= 3$

And then the variance is given by:

$Var(X^2)= 3-(1)^2 =2$

Please help me this will mark brainiest thx I will appreciate it thank you

Savatey [412]

Answer:

z=40 degrees

x=90 degrees

y=40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve z you know that 50+90+z= 180 degrees. So z equals 40. To solve x you subtract 90 from 180 to get 90 degrees. To solve you add 50+x+y. You know that x= 90. You would add the angles together to get 180 degrees. 50+90=140 and 180-140 equals 40. Sorry if i'm wrong.

This is VERY URGENT, so 50 points if you answer correctly!

mariarad [96]

Answer:

The circumference is 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter is equal to 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Thed formular for the circumference of a circle is 2 $\pi$ r or $\pi$ d

where d = diameter and r = radius

if d = 10 cm, and $\pi$ = 3.143, then circumference of the circle can be given as

3.143*10 = 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter can be given as 31.43:10

and that can be given as 3.143:1

or 3:1, for the nearest whole number

Costs are rising for all kinds of medical care. The mean monthly rent at assisted-living facilities was reported to have increas

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Develop a 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Our sample size is 120.

The first step to solve this problem is finding our degrees of freedom, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

$df = 120-1 = 119$

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level $\alpha$ and divide by 2. So:

$\frac{1-0.90}{2} = \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.05$

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 119 and 0.05 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.6578$ .

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

$s = \frac{650}{\sqrt{120}} = 59.34$

Now, we multiply T and s

$M = T*s = 59.34*1.6578 = 98.37$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 98.37 = $3387.63.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 98.37 = $3584.37.

The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that $\alpha = 0.95$

So

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025$

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.9801$ .

$M = T*s = 59.34*1.9801 = 117.50$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 117.50 = $3368.5.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 117.50 = $3603.5.

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) Develop a 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that $\alpha = 0.99$

So

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.005$

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 2.6178$ .

$M = T*s = 59.34*2.6178 = 155.34$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 155.34 = $3330.66.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 155.34 = $3641.34.

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) What happens to the width of the confidence interval as the confidence level is increased? Does this seem reasonable? Explain.

The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.

Sample Response: Both are correct. As long as inverse operations and the properties of equality are used properly, both methods will generate the same solution. They both isolate the variable on one side of the equation.
