2. P337. 23. A large box contains 10,000 ball bearings. A random sample of 120 is chosen. The sample mean diameter is 10 mm, and

the standard deviation is 0.24 mm. True or false: (a) A 95% con dence interval for the mean diameter of the 120 bearings in the sample is 1 ???? (1:96)(0:24)= p 120. (b) A 95% con dence interval for the mean diameter of the 10,000 bearings in the sample is 1 ???? (1:96)(0:24)= p 120. (c) A 95% con dence interval for the mean diameter of the 10,000 bearings in the sample is 1 ???? (1:96)(0:24)= p 10; 000.

Answer:

B is True

A, C. D are false

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 120

Mean diameter, m = 10

Standard deviation, s = 0.24

Confidence level, Zcritical ; Z0.05/2 = Z0.025 = 1.96

The confidence interval represents how the true mean value compares to a set of values around the mean computed from a set of sample drawn from the population.

The population here is N = 10000

To obtain

Confidence interval (C. I) :

Mean ± margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Margin of Error = 1.96 * 0.24/sqrt(120)

Confidence interval for the 10,000 ball bearing :

10 ± 1.96 * (0.24) / sqrt(120)

Hence. The confidence interval defined as :

10 ± 1.96 * (0.24) / sqrt(120) is the 95% confidence interval for the mean diameter of the 10,000 bearings in the box.

Plz solve I’ve been stuck on how to start it and I just can’t
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

x and y = 0

the question looks weird and almost wrong because when you subtract the equations, you are left with nothing

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the top equation by 3 to make the -x a -3x instead.

Then do the top equation - the bottom equation

At this point you should be left with x

The length of the rectangle is x cm. The length of a diagonal of the rectangle is 8 crn. The perimeter of the rectangle is 20 cm
klemol [59]

Answer:

x^2-10x+18=0

<em>a</em> = -10 and <em>b</em> = 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>w</em> represent the width of the rectangle.

We are given that the perimeter of the rectangle is 20 cm, this means that:

20=2(x + w)

Let's put <em>w</em> in terms of <em>x</em>. Divide both sides by two:

10=x+w

And solve for <em>w:</em>

<em />w=10-x<em />

So, the rectangle measures <em>x</em> by (10 -<em> x</em>) cm.

<em />

According to the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

<em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the legs and <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse.

Substitute <em>x</em> for <em>a, w</em> for <em>b</em>, and 8 for <em>c:</em>

<em />x^2+w^2=8^2<em />

Simplify and substitute:

x^2+(10-x)^2=64

Square:

x^2+(100-20x+x^2)=64

Isolate the equation. So:

2x^2-20x+36=0

Since the leading coefficient is one, divide both sides by two:

x^2-10x+18=0

Therefore, <em>a</em> = -10 and <em>b</em> = 18.

0.135 written as a fraction is _____.<br><br><br><br> 5/37<br><br> 27/100<br><br> 27/200
sergij07 [2.7K]
First it would be 135/1000. Then you'd have to simplify.

Simplified, it would be 27/200.

Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest . h(x) = (- 4x - 3)(x - 3) lesser x = greater
icang [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -3/4, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros are the values of x that make h(x)=0. Those are the values of x that make the factors of h(x) be zero.

  -4x -3 = 0   ⇒   x = -3/4

  x -3 = 0   ⇒   x = 3

The zeros of the function are -3/4 and 3.
