Answer:

.7147

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P be the probability of 55 families having mean more than 17

P { (17-17.2)/ (2.5/√55) }

P(- 0.5933 )

= - .2765  [ From the z table ]

P be the probability of 55 families having mean less than 18

P { (18 -17.2)/ (2.5/√55) }

P( 2.3732 )

= .9912   [ From the z table ]

Probability of mean between 17 and 18

= .9912 - .2765

= .7147

harkovskaia [24]

In three years the Marlin's truck is worth 13,440$

To find percentage of a number, multiple it with in 0. Of the number.

Example: 28,000 ×. 48

That equals 13,440

So 48% of 28,000 is 13,440

Angelina_Jolie [31]

800,000 or eight hundred thousand.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Problem:</u> The given number is 826,140.

<u>Question:</u> What is the value of the digit 8?

<u>The Process:</u>

This is a problem with place value.

Let us set the place values from 826,140 consecutively as follows.

  • In the thousands period: 8 hundred thousands, 2 ten thousands, 6 one thousands.
  • In the units period: 1 hundreds 4 tens 0 ones.

Let us say in word form: eight hundred twenty-six thousand six hundred forty.

Hence, the value of the 8 in the numbers 826,140 is 800,000 or eight hundred thousand.

- - - - - - -

<u>Extra:</u>

What is the value of the digit 6 in the numbers 826,140? The answer is 6,000 or six thousand.

- - - - - - -

<u>Notes:</u>

Recall that the digits in large numbers are in groups of three places, i.e.,

  • hundreds,
  • tens, and
  • ones (or units).

The groups are called periods, i.e.,

  • millions period
  • thousands period
  • ones or units period

Commas are typically used to separate the periods.

Weight of a rock: In a geology course, students are learning to use a balance scale to accurately weigh rocks. One student plans
dusya [7]

Answer:

The first student, with 20 measurements, will have the more precise interval due to the larger sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error of a confidence interval:

The margin of error of a confidence interval has the following format:

M = z\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which z is related to the confidence level, s to the standard deviation and n to the sample size.

The margin of error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size, which means that a larger sample will lead to a lower margin of error, that is, to a more precise interval.

In this question:

One student will use 5 measurements, other 20. The first student, with 20 measurements, will have the more precise interval due to the larger sample size.
