An educational psychologist wishes to know the mean number of words a third grader can read per minute. She wants to make an est

imate at the 85% level of confidence. For a sample of 295 third graders, the mean words per minute read was 26.9. Assume a population standard deviation of 2.7. Construct the confidence interval for the mean number of words a third grader can read per minute. Round your answers to one decimal place

Answer:

<em> 85% level of the confidence interval is</em>

<em>(26.337, 26.662)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

Given the size of the sample 'n' = 295

Mean of the sample x⁻ = 26.5

The Standard deviation of the Population = 2.7

85% level of the confidence interval is determined by

(x^{-} - Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} })

Critical value Z₀.₁₅ = 1.036

<em> 85% level of the confidence interval is determined by</em>

(x^{-} - Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} })

(26.9 -1.036 \frac{2.7}{\sqrt{295} } , 26.5 + 1.036 \frac{2.7}{\sqrt{295} })

( 26.5 - 0.1628 , 26.5+0.1628)

(26.3372,26.6628)

Like a first step bc. there is a denominator this will be more usefully eliminate it so what you can make it multiplied both sides by 2 
- so will get 

-2/2x +2*3/2 = 2(-4x+7)/2

(-2x +6)/2 = 2(-4x+7)/2   common denominator the 2 so make the numerators equal and solve for x 

-2x+6=-8x+14

6x=8

hope helped

M(x)=x(x+6)<br> p(x)=x(x+3)²-9<br><br> Show that m(x) and p(x) are equivalent
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

m=x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for m.

mx=x(x+6)

Step 1: Divide both sides by x.

2x/x=    x²+6x/x

m=x+6

Hope this helps :)
