Answer:

Option (a) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f(x)=x+5$

$g\left(x\right)=x^2-3$

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x²-3) = (x²-3)+5

= x² + 2

Thus,

f(g(x)) = x² + 2

Therefore, option (a) is true.

A simple random sample of size nequals10 is obtained from a population with muequals68 and sigmaequals15. (a) What must be true

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

(a) The distribution of the sample mean ( $\bar x$ ) is N (68, 4.74²).

(b) The value of $P(\bar X$ is 0.7642.

Step-by-step explanation:

A random sample of size n = 10 is selected from a population.

Let the population be made up of the random variable X.

The mean and standard deviation of X are:

$\mu=68\\\sigma=15$

(a)

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and we take appropriately huge random samples (n ≥ 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed.

Since the sample selected is not large, i.e. n = 10 < 30, for the distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed, the population from which the sample is selected must be normally distributed.

Then, the mean of the distribution of the sample mean is given by,

$\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=68$

And the standard deviation of the distribution of the sample mean is given by,

$\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{15}{\sqrt{10}}=4.74$

Thus, the distribution of the sample mean ( $\bar x$ ) is N (68, 4.74²).

(b)

Compute the value of $P(\bar X$ as follows:

$P(\bar X$

$=P(Z$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the value of $P(\bar X$ is 0.7642.

(c)

Compute the value of $P(\bar X\geq 69.1)$ as follows:

Apply continuity correction as follows:

$P(\bar X\geq 69.1)=P(\bar X> 69.1+0.5)$

$=P(\bar X>69.6)$

$=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}>\frac{69.6-68}{4.74})$

$=P(Z>0.34)\\=1-P(Z$

Thus, the value of $P(\bar X\geq 69.1)$ is 0.3670.

I need help on understanding this concept

Sedbober [7]

So the slope formula is m= (y2-y1) /
(x2-x1). You can label -2 as x1 and 11 as y1. And the other point is x2 and y2. They you just plug it in the m= (y2-y1) /
(x2-x1) formula and solve. To get a better understanding look up, how to find the slope of a line with two points. Hope it helps

10. The lengths of the electrical extension cords in a workshop are 6 ft, 8 ft, 25 ft, 8 ft, 12 ft, 50 ft, and 25 ft. What are t

Nadya [2.5K]

6 ft= 6x12in= 72 in.
8 ft= 8x12in= 96 in.
12ft=12x12in=144 in
25ft=25x12in=300 in
50ft=50x12in=600 in

72 in, 96 in, 96 in, 144 in, 300 in, 300 in, 600 in
Mean= (72+96+96+144+300+300+600)÷7
1608÷7 = 229.7 inches
Median=middle value in set = 144 inches
Mode= value(s) tha occur most often = 96 inches and 300 inches
Range=difference of largest and smallest values in set = 600-72= 528
Choice A
