Answer:

a)17.92

b) 16.83 .... 21.17

Step-by-step explanation:

ρ→   z

0.14 = -1.080319341

-1.080 = (x - 19)/1 = 17.92

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3% / 2 = 1.5%

1.5% - 98.5%

ρ→   z

0.015 = -2.170090378 ....  -2.17 = (x-19) =16.83

0.985 = 2.170090378  ....   2.17 = (x-19) =21.17

A genetics experiment involves a population of fruit flies consisting of 1 male named Bart and 3 females named Charlene, Diana,
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(b) \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

1 male named Bart (b)

3 females named Charlene(c), Diana(d), and Erin(e).

Since there is replacement, the possible samples are:

bb, bc, be, bd, cb, cc, cd, ce, db, dc, dd, de, eb, ec, ed, and ee.

Total Number of pairs = 16

Event of picking 2 males:bb

Event of 1 male:bc,cb,bd,db,be,eb

Event of picking 0 males:

cc, cd, ce, dc, dd, de, ec, ed, and ee.

\begin{equation*} \begin{matrix}Proportion of males & Probability \\0 & 9/16 \\1 & 6/16 \\2 & 1/16 \end{matrix} \end{equation*}

b. The mean of the sampling distribution

\mu = (\frac{9}{16} X0 ) +(\frac{6}{16} X 1)+(\frac{1}{16} X 2) = \frac{8}{16} = \frac{1}{2}

c.  No; the proportion of males is \frac{1}{4} while the mean is \frac{1}{2}.

B. No, the sample mean is not equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator.

Can someone plz help me i will thank u so much
klemol [59]

Answer:

2 hours and 29 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

if you change 9 hours to minutes you get 540 plus 17 equals 557. if you turn 6 hours to minutes it's 360 plus 48 equals 408. 557 minus 408 equals 149 minutes. Now if you convert it to hours and minutes you need to divide by 60. So if you divide it you get 2 hours and 29 minutes. hope this helped! :)

inysia [295]

Answer: Choice D,  -5x^3 + 8

A binomial consists of two terms being added or subtracted. The two terms are -5x^3 and 8. The term -5x^3 has a leading coefficient -5 and exponent 3. The largest exponent determines the degree of the polynomial. The 8 is constant as there are no variables attached or multiplying with it.

A motorboat travels 60 km in 4 hours with the current and 35 km in 3.5 hours against the current. Find the speed of the boat in
IceJOKER [234]

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate × time

If b is the speed of the boat in still water, and c is the speed of the current, then:

60 = (b + c) × 4

35 = (b − c) × 3.5

Simplifying:

15 = b + c

10 = b − c

Add the equations together:

25 = 2b

b = 12.5

Plug into either equation to find c:

c = 2.5

The speed of the boat is 12.5 km/h, and the speed of the current is 2.5 km/h.
