The equation for a parabola has the form y = ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0. find an equation for the p

sattari [20]

To solve the problem, substitute the given points for x in the given equation to get

$-10=(-1)^2a+(-1)b+c\Rightarrow-10=a-b+c \\ -6=(1)^2a+(1)b+c\Rightarrow-6=a+b+c \\ -13=(2)^2a+(2)b+c\Rightarrow-13=4a+2b+c$

Solving the three equations simultaneously, we have:

a = -3, b = 2 and c = -5

Therefore, the required equation is

$y=-3x^2+2x-5$

The distribution of weekly salaries at a large company is right skewed with a mean of $1000 and a standard deviation of $350. Wh

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

68.76% probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean weekly salary for all employees of the company by the mean of a random sample of weekly salaries of 50 employees will be at most $50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we have to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation, which is also called standard error $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 1000, \sigma = 350, n = 50, s = \frac{350}{\sqrt{50}} = 49.5$

What is the probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean weekly salary for all employees of the company by the mean of a random sample of weekly salaries of 50 employees will be at most $50

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 1000+50 = 1050 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1000-50 = 950. So

X = 1050

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{1050-1000}{49.5}$

$Z = 1.01$

$Z = 1.01$ has a pvalue of 0.8438

X = 950

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{950-1000}{49.5}$

$Z = -1.01$

$Z = -1.01$ has a pvalue of 0.1562

0.8438 - 0.1562 = 0.6876

68.76% probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean weekly salary for all employees of the company by the mean of a random sample of weekly salaries of 50 employees will be at most $50
