Answer:

-12.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We start at -5 pm

from 7pm to 10 pm is 3 hours

it drops 2.5 degrees per hour

-2.5 *3 = -7.5 degrees

-5 + -7.5 = -12.5

The temperature at 10 pm is -12.5 degrees

Answer:

AT 10 PM the temperature is: -12.5°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that from 7PM to 10 PM, there are 3 hours difference.

At 7 PM the temperature was -5° F, then one hour later, (at 8PM it was -2.5°F less, that is: -7.5°F.

One hour later (9PM) : -7.5°F - 2.5°F = -10°F

Another hour later (10PM) : -10°F - 2.5°F = -12.5°F

The problem could also be solved in one step by  multiplying the rate of change times "3" (due to the 3 hours elapsed between 7PM and 10PM), and using it to modify the starting value (-5°F):

At 10 PM: -5°F + 3 *(-2.5°F) =  -5°F - 7.5°F = -12.5°F

For this problem, the confidence interval is the one we are looking for. Since the confidence level is not given, we assume that it is 95%.

 

The formula for the confidence interval is: mean ± t (α/2)(n-1) * s √1 + 1/n


Where:

<span>
</span>

α= 5%


α/2 = 2.5%


t 0.025, 19 = 2.093 (check t table)


n = 20


df = n – 1 = 20 – 1 = 19

So plugging in our values:


8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.77 √ 1 + 1/20


= 8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.77 (1.0247)


= 8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.789019


= 8.41 ± 1.65141676

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

66 ≤ f ≤100

Explanation

Mean= ( Σ x ) / n

Mean= sum of scores/ number of subject she took

Now, she already too 3 subject which sum is 85+83+86=254

Now we need to know range of score for her to have (grade) a mark between 80 and 89

Now let take the lower limit mean=80

The lowest score she can get is

Mean = ( Σx) / n

80=(85+83+86+f)/4

80×4= 254+f

Therefore, f= 320-254=66

Therefore the minimum score she can have to have a B is 66.

Then, let take the upper limit mean 89. i.e the maximum she can have so that she don't have an A grade.

Mean = ( Σx) / n

89=( 83+85+86+f)/4

89×4= 254+f

f= 356-254

f=102.

Therefore this shows that she cannot have an A grade in the exam. The maximum score for the exam is 100.

There the range of score is 66 ≤ f ≤100 to have a B grade

66 ≤ f ≤100 answer

Since she cannot score 102 in the examination.
