Answer: a. $128.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error of the mean is given by :

SE=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} , where \sigma = population standard deviation , n= sample size.

Given: \sigma=\$2,050

n= 256

Then, the standard error of the mean:-

SE=\dfrac{2050}{\sqrt{256}}\\\\=\dfrac{2050}{16}=\$128.125

Hence, option a. is correct.

What are the zeros of the function?
cluponka [151]

The function is:

f ( x ) = x² - x - 72

This is a quatdratic function. So we can find the zeroes of the function with the formula:

x 1/2 = ( - b +/- √(b² - 4 ac) ) / ( 2a )

And we have: a = 1, b = - 1 and c = - 72

x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √((-1)² - 4 · 1· ( - 72 )) ) / 2

x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √( 1 + 288 ) ) / 2

x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √289 ) / 2

x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- 17 ) / 2

x 1 = ( 1 - 17 ) 2 = - 16 / 2 = - 8

x 2 = ( 1 + 17 ) / 2 = 18 / 2 = 9

Answer: The zeroes are - 8 and 9.

The mean time it takes to walk to the bus stop is 8 minutes (with a standard deviation of 2 minutes) and the mean time it takes
kifflom [539]

We have been given for a normal distribution the mean time it takes to walk to the bus stop is 8 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. And the mean time it takes for the bus to get to school is 20 minutes with a standard deviation of 4 minutes.

(a) Average time that it would take reach school can be obtained by adding the average times.

8+20 = 28 minutes.

(b) Standard deviation of the trip to school can be found as:

\sigma =\sqrt{2^{2}+4^{2}}=\sqrt{4+16}=\sqrt{20}=4.47

Therefore, standard deviation of the entire trip is 4.47 minutes.

(c) Let us first find z score corresponding to 30 minutes.z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }=\frac{30-28}{4.47}=0.447

We need to find the probability such that P(x>30)=P(z>0.447)=0.67

Therefore, the required probability is 0.67.

(d) If average time to walk to school is 10 minutes, then overall average time for the trip will be 10+20 = 30 minutes.

(e) Standard deviation won't change it will remain 4.47

(f) The new probability will be:

z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }=\frac{30-90}{4.47}=0

P(x>30)=P(z>0)=0.5

Therefore, probability will be 0.50.
