Answer: the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.

Explanation:

The four measures taken are 124.53, 124.55, 142.51 and 124.52.

As it can be easily seen, the third measure is much different from the other three. This means that something went wrong during the observation: it can be either the measure taken wrong or that the number was written wrong (if you switch the 2 and the 4 you get a number similar to the other ones).

If the third measure is not considered, an estimate of the mean would place it around 124.5, while if the outlier (the detatched number) is considered an estimate of the mean would increase to about 129.

Therefore, in order to obtain a more reliable mean, the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.

What is the equation for the points (-3,1) and (9,7)
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The equation of line with given points is 2Y - X - 5 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are ( - 3 , 1)   and   (9 , 7)

Equation of line is y = mx +c

where m is the slop of line

Now m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Or,    m = \frac{7 - 1}{9 + 3}

so, slop = \frac{6}{12}

∴   slop = \frac{1}{2}

Now the equation of line with points ( -3 , 1) and slop m is :

Y - y1 = m ( X - x1)

Or, Y - 1 =  \frac{1}{2} (X + 3)

Or, 2Y - X - 5 = 0

Hence The equation of line with given points is 2Y - X - 5 = 0 Answer

seropon [69]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

In statistics, The Type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is false, but fails to be rejected.

Given : Suppose the null hypothesis, H_0, is: Darrell has enough money in his bank account to purchase a new television.

Then , Type II error in this scenario will be when the null hypothesis is false, but fails to be rejected.

i.e. Darrell has not enough money in his bank account to purchase a new television but fails to be rejected.

If joe has12 checkers and 5/6 of them are red how many are red
natta225 [31]

Given:

The number of checkers is 12.

The number of red is 5/6 times of 12.

Multiply 5/6 and 12 to find the number of red.

\text{The number of red =}\frac{5}{6}\times12

\text{The number of red =}5\times2

\text{The number of red =}10

Hence there are 10 red in checkers.
