Due to normality, the formula for computing z is the same for a single data value, as it is

Using the <u>Central Limit Theorem</u>, the statement is false, as for the averages of  the data values for a sample group, the standard error is s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}, hence, the formula is:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

While for a single value, it is:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

In a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
  • By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

Hence, the formulas are different, and for an average of the data values for a sample group it is:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

Suppose heights of seasonal pine saplings are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation of 17 millimet
Mumz [18]

Answer:

296.693\leq x\leq 319.307

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for the population mean x can be calculated as:

x'-z_{\alpha /2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } \leq x\leq x'+z_{\alpha /2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

Where x' is the sample mean, s is the population standard deviation, n is the sample size and z_{\alpha /2} is the z-score that let a proportion of \alpha /2 on the right tail.

\alpha is calculated as: 100%-99%=1%

So, z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.005}=2.576

Finally, replacing the values of x' by 308, s by 17, n by 15 and z_{\alpha /2} by 2.576, we get that the confidence interval is:

308-2.576\frac{17}{\sqrt{15} } \leq x\leq 308+2.576\frac{17}{\sqrt{15} }\\308-11.307 \leq x\leq 308+11.307\\296.693\leq x\leq 319.307

Which of the following is equivalent to a real number?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

C) -144^¹/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Having a number to the power of a fraction is the equivalent of rooting by its reciprocal. So, the sixth root, fourth root, cube root, and square root. Only odd roots can have negative answers (∛x, x can be negative; √y, y can not be negative unless we talk about imaginary numbers).

Since we are looking for a real number, C, showing a cube root of a negative number, must be the answer.

On Sunday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined of 572 hamburger and cheeseburger. The number of cheeseburgers sold was three
igor_vitrenko [27]
Answer: 143 hamburgers and 429 cheese burgers

Explanation:

Call h and c the number of both items.
(h-hamburger and c-cheeseburger)

h + c = 572
c = 3h

Sub the second into the first

h + 3h = 572
4h = 572

Divide both sides by 4
h = 143 hamburgers

Use this back into the second equation
c = 3 • 143 = 429 cheeseburgers
