The number of employees per department are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 198 employees and an unk

nown population mean. If a random sample of 22 departments is taken and results in a sample mean of 1460 employees, find the error bound (EBM) of the confidence interval with a 80% confidence level.

Answer:

EBM = +-54.126

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have confidence interval to be 80%

The formula to solve this is in the attachment.

Bar X = 1460

Z-alpha/2 = 1.282

Sd = standard deviation = 198 employees

n = 22 departments

After we have inserted all values in to the formula we have:

1460 +-(1.282*198/√22)

= 1460+-(54.12604)

= (1405.87, 1514.126)

The error bounded mean EBM

= +-z-alpha/2 x (sd/√n)

= 1.282 x 198/√22

= 1.282 x 42.22

EBM = +-54.126

Find the length of the following curve. If you have a grapher, you may want to graph the curve to see what it looks like.

stepladder [879]

The length of the curve $y = \frac{1}{27}(9x^2 + 6)^\frac 32$ from x = 3 to x = 6 is 192 units

<h3>How to determine the length of the curve?</h3>

The curve is given as:

$y = \frac{1}{27}(9x^2 + 6)^\frac 32$ from x = 3 to x = 6

Start by differentiating the curve function

$y' = \frac 32 * \frac{1}{27}(9x^2 + 6)^\frac 12 * 18x$

Evaluate

$y' = x(9x^2 + 6)^\frac 12$

The length of the curve is calculated using:

$L =\int\limits^a_b {\sqrt{1 + y'^2}} \, dx$

This gives

$L =\int\limits^6_3 {\sqrt{1 + [x(9x^2 + 6)^\frac 12]^2}\ dx$

Expand

$L =\int\limits^6_3 {\sqrt{1 + x^2(9x^2 + 6)}\ dx$

This gives

$L =\int\limits^6_3 {\sqrt{9x^4 + 6x^2 + 1}\ dx$

Express as a perfect square

$L =\int\limits^6_3 {\sqrt{(3x^2 + 1)^2}\ dx$

Evaluate the exponent

$L =\int\limits^6_3 {3x^2 + 1} \ dx$

Differentiate

$L = x^3 + x|\limits^6_3$

Expand

L = (6³ + 6) - (3³ + 3)

Evaluate

L = 192

Hence, the length of the curve is 192 units

“kilo-“ means “thousand.” A kilogram is 1,000 grams.
5 kg = 5,000 g
5,000 g × (1 pizza)/(300 g) = 5,000/300 pizzas = 16⅓
16 pizzas

Write the standard form of the equation of the line through the given point with the given slope. Through (-2,5), slope =-4

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{4x+y=-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

<em>(x₁, y₁)</em><em> - point on a line</em>

<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>

<em />

We have

$m=-4,\ (-2,\ 5)\to x_1=-2,\ y_1=5$

Substitute:

$y-5=-4(x-(-2))\\\\y-5=-4(x+2)$

Convert to the standard form

$Ax+By=C$

$y-5=-4(x+2)$ <em> use the distributive property</em>

$y-5=(-4)(x)+(-4)(2)$

$y-5=-4x-8$ <em>add 5 to both sides</em>

$y-5+5=-4x-8+5$

$y=-4x-3$ <em>add 4x to both sides</em>

$4x+y=-4x+4x-3\\\\4x+y=-3$

Caitlan went to the store to buy clothes. she had a store credit from a previous return in the amount of $39.58. If she bought 4

mash [69]

Well you would take the store credit and subtract that from the total so you would do 52.22-39.58 and you would have to spend $12.64
