Answer:

z-score = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean= μ=240

SD= σ=32

In order to find the z-score of a value, the mean is subtracted from the value and then divided by standard deviation.

The formula for z-score is:

z-score=(x-μ)/σ

Here x is the value whose z-score is to be found.

In the given question, x = 272

So,

z-score=(272-240)/32

=32/32

So , the z-score for 272 is 1..

Which function in Excel is used to perform a test of independence? a. T.TEST b. CHISQ.TEST c. NORM.S.DIST d. Z.TEST

denis23 [38]

Answer:

b. CHISQ.TEST

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and previous concepts

A chi-square test is "used to test if the variance of a population is equal to a specified value. This test can be either a two-sided test or a one-sided test. The two-sided version tests against the alternative that the true variance is either less than or greater than the specified value"

The statistic is given by:

$\chi^2 = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i-E_i)^2}{E_i}$

In order to calculate the p value we need to have in count the degrees of freedom , on this case $df=(rows-1)(#cols-1)$ . And we can calculate the p value would be given by:

$p_v =P(\chi^2 >\chi^2_{calc})$

But the correct comand is given by:

b. CHISQ.TEST(Actual range, Expected range)

We just need to put in one column the Observed values and in other the expectec values.

What is the sample space for each one of the following statements? (7.5 points each)

photoshop1234 [79]

We can define the sample space for a given experiment as the set of all the possible outcomes for the experiment.

For example, tossing a coin has a space sample of 2 elements, tails and heads.

The spaces are:

a) {WW, BB, WBB, BWW, WBWW, BWBB,... }

b) { 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-5,..., 7-6-5-4,...}

a) We can write one element in this sample space as:

WBB

This would mean that first we draw a white ball, then a black ball, and then the second black ball, thus we stop drawing.

<u>So all the elements in this set will have the form</u>

{WW, BB, WBB, BWW, WBWW, BWBB,... }

As we have infinite balls in the bag, we have infinite elements in this set.

b) Now we have only 10 balls numbered from 1 to 10, and we draw 4.

So each element in the sample space can be written as:

1-2-3-4

This element means:

"first we draw ball number 1, then ball number 2, then ball number 3, then ball number 4"

Then the sample space will have the form:

{ 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-5,..., 7-6-5-4,...}

If we were to do this equation how would I solve it

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

$- 6 \frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{10}{3} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{29}{3} - ( - \frac{1}{3} ) \\ \\ = \frac{10}{3} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ = \frac{10}{3} - \frac{29}{3} - \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ = \frac{10 - 29}{3} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ = - 6 \frac{1}{3}$

A frequency table of grades has five classes (A, B, C, D,F) with frequencies of 4, 10, 17, 6, and respectively. Using percentage

fiasKO [112]

We have the frequencies for each of the grades. We can estimate the number of students graded by adding all those frequencies. Let's call N the total number of grades:
