The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question:

Population:

Mean 95, Standard deviation 12

Samples of size 36:

By the Central Limit Theorem,

Mean 95

Standard deviation $s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{36}} = 2$

The dimensions of a basketball court are shown below. Suppose a player throws the ball from a corner to a teammate standing at t

creativ13 [48]

The 94 ft. by 50 ft dimensions of the court obtained from a similar question posted online, gives;

a. The ordered pair representing the location of the player in the bottom right corner is (47, -25)

b. The distance traveled by the ball obtained using Pythagorean theorem, is approximately 53.2 feet.

<h3>How can Pythagorean theorem be used to find the distance the ball travels?</h3>

The possible dimensions of a rectangular court obtained from a similar question posted online are;

Length of the basketball court = 94ft.

Width of the basketball court = 50 ft.

From the question, we have;

Location of the court center = The origin of a coordinate plane

a. The ordered pair that represent the location of a player in the bottom right corner is found as follows;

Let (x, y) represent the coordinates of the bottom right corner of the court, we have;

Horizontal distance from the center of the court (the origin) to the right boundary of the court, x = (94 ft.)/2 = 47 ft.

Vertical distance from the center to bottom of the court, y = (50 ft.)/2 = 25 ft.

Following the convention of points to the right and above the origin being positive, while points below the origin are negative, we have;

The ordered pair (the coordinates of the player) that represents the location of the player in the bottom right corner is therefore;

(x, y) = (47, -25)

b. The distance, d, that the ball travels is given by Pythagorean theorem as follows;

d = √((47 - 0)² + ((-25) - 0)²) = √(2834) ≈ 53.2

The ball travels approximately 53.2 feet.

Anna set up a lemonade stand on her block over the summer. She recorded each day’s high temperature and the number of cups of le

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Residual = -2

The negative residual value indicates that the data point lies below the regression line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a linear regression model that relates daily high temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit and number of lemonade cups sold.

$y = -34+ \frac{3}{5} x$

Where y is the number of cups sold and x is the daily temperature in Fahrenheit.

Residual value:

A residual value basically shows the position of a data point with respect to the regression line.

A residual value of 0 is desired which means that the regression line best fits the data.

The Residual value is calculated by

Residual = Observed value - Predicted value

The predicted value of number of lemonade cups is obtained as

$y = -34+ \frac{3}{5} (95)\\\\y = -34+ 3 (19)\\\\y = -34+ 57\\\\y = 23$

So the predicted value of number of lemonade cups is 23 and the observed value is 21 so the residual value is

Residual = Observed value - Predicted value

Residual = 21 - 23

Residual = -2

The negative residual value indicates that the data point lies below the regression line.
