7.43: Let X denote the random variable for height and \overline X for the sample mean. Then if \mu is the mean of

So the probability that the difference between the sample and population means does not exceed 0.5 inch is

P(|\overline X-\mu|\le0.5) = P\left(\left|\dfrac{\overline X-\mu}{0.25}\right|\le\dfrac{0.5}{0.25}\right) = P(|Z|\le 2) \approx \boxed{0.95}

per the empirical or 68/95/99.7 rule.

7.44: For a sample of size <em>n</em>, the sample standard deviation would be \frac{2.5}{\sqrt n}. We want to find <em>n</em> such that

P(|\overline X-\mu| < 0.4) = 0.95

Comparing to the equation from the previous part, this means we would need

\dfrac{0.4}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{n}}} = 0.16\sqrt n = 2 \implies \sqrt n = 12.5 \implies n = 156.25

so a sample of at least 157 men would be sufficient.

What is the following product? (5 square root 2-4 square root 3) (5 square root 2-4 square root 3)
Zina [86]

Answer:

(5 square root 2-4 square root 3) (5 square root 2-4 square root 3)

=   98 - 40\sqrt{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

i) (5\sqrt{2} - 4\sqrt{3}) × (5√2 - 4√3)

=(5\sqrt{2} × 5\sqrt{2}) - (5\sqrt{2} × 4\sqrt{3}) - (4\sqrt{3} × 5\sqrt{2}) + (4\sqrt{3} × 4\sqrt{3})

= 50 - 20\sqrt{6} - 20\sqrt{6} + 48

= 98 - 40\sqrt{6}
