Answer:

The 99% confidence interval of the  standard deviation of the pulse rates of men is  

       [ 7.949 \  \ , \  14.387 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  sample size is  n  =  40

  The mean is  \= x  = 67.3 \  beats \  per \  minute

  The standard deviation is  s =  10.3 \ beats \ per \  minute

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

     df =  n- 1

=>  df =  40- 1

=>  df =  39

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.01

Generally from the chi distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of is  

   X^2 _{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 39} =  65.476

Generally from the chi distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of is  

   X^2 _{1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , 39} =  19.996

Generally the 99% confidence interval of the standard deviation of the pulse rates of men is mathematically represented as

  s \sqrt{\frac{n- 1}{X^2_{1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , n-1} } }\  \ , \ s \sqrt{\frac{n- 1}{X^2_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , n-1} } }

=>  10.3 \sqrt{\frac{40- 1}{65.476} }\  \ , \ 10.3 \sqrt{\frac{40- 1}{19.996} }

=>  [ 7.949 \  \ , \  14.387 ]

What is the value of x and the length of segment DE?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Part 1) x=6.6\ units

Part 2) DE=16.2\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the value of x

we know that

Triangles CDF and FDE are similar

therefore

The ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

CD/FD=FD/DE

\frac{5}{9}=\frac{9}{2x+3} \\ \\5*(2x+3)=9*9\\ \\10x+15=81\\ \\10x= 81-15\\ \\10x=66\\ \\ x=6.6\ units

Part 2) Find the length of DE

DE=2x+3

substitute the value of x

DE=2(6.6)+3=16.2\ units

A professional baseball team won 84 games.The team won 14 more games than it lost.There were no ties.How many games did the team
babunello [35]
Hello There!

Games won = 84
Games lost = 84 - 14
Games lost = 70
Total games played = games lost + games lost
Total games played = 84 + 70
Total games played = 154.

They played 154 games and lost 70 games.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
