The beginning part of the question is missing and it says;

The measures of center can be used to summarize the number of pets that students own. Cameron asked eight of his classmates how many pets they own. The results are listed below.

1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 7, 0, 2, 4

Answer:

Median

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rearrange the results from least to most.

0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 7

Mode is the most occurring number which in this case is zero, so Cameron can't use that to convince his parents to get another pet.

Median is middle number and in this case is 2.

Mean is; sum of results/ number of results = 19/9 = 2.11

Thus, the best measure of tendency for Cameron to use is median.

You observe a portfolio for five years and determine that its average annual return is 13% and the standard deviation of its ret

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

There is a 95% probability that the portfolio would not loose more than 30% of its value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for proportions (p) is:

$CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

The information provided is:

$\hat p = 0.13\\\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p}{n}} =0.21$

For 95% confidence level the critical value of z is:

$z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

The 95% confidence interval for average annual return is:

$CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.13\pm 1.96\times0.21\\=0.13\pm 0.4116\\=(-0.2816, 0.5416)\\\approx(-28\%, 54\%)$

The lower limit of the 95% confidence interval is -28%.

This implies that the portfolio would not loose more than 28% of its value.

Thus, there is a 95% probability that the portfolio would not loose more than 30% of its value.

7=3/8x-2 What is the answer show your work

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, isolate x by adding 2 to both sides.

9 = 3/8x

Then, multiply 8 to both sides.

72 = 3x

Then, divide both sides by 3.

24 = x
