Can anyone help me!! Thank you<br><br> :)

Researchers are interested if a school breakfast program leads to taller children. Assume that the population of all 5 year-old

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

$39-1.96\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}=38.608$

$39+1.96\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}=39.392$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (38.608;39.392)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

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".

$\bar X=39$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=1$ represent the population standard deviation

n=25 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

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

The margin of error is given by:

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

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

And replacing we got:

$ME= 1.96 *\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}= 0.392$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$39-1.96\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}=38.608$

$39+1.96\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}=39.392$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (38.608;39.392)

Please help ill give brainiest answer

trapecia [35]

Answer:

1: AAS, RQC 2: ASA, SRP

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) We are shown that two angles and one side are congruent in the order of AAS. Make sure you write the letters in terms of the corresponding angles. The angles and sides are congruent because the problem labels it for us. For example, B,A,C=R,Q,S. Answers: AAS, RQC.

(2) We are shown that two angles and one side are congruent in the order of ASA. Make sure you write the letters in terms of the corresponding angles again. For example, P,Q,R=P,S,R. The angles are congruent because the problem labels it for us. Side PR is congruent to side PR by reflexive property. Answers: ASA, SRP.

I hope this helped :) Good luck
