<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

No, this is not a plausible value for the population mean, because 5 is not within the 95% confidence interval.

====================================================

Explanation:

The greek letter mu is the population mean. It has the symbol \mu which looks like the letter 'u' but with a tail at the front or left side.

The question is asking if mu = 5 is plausible if the researcher found the 95% confidence interval to be 5.2 < mu < 7.8

We see that 5 is <u>not</u> in that interval. It's a bit to the left of 5.2

Since mu = 5 is not in the interval, it's not a plausible value for the population mean.

Have we ruled it out with 100% confidence? No. Such a thing is not possible. There's always room for (slight) error. The researcher would need to do a census to be fully confident; however, such practices are very time consuming and expensive. This is the main reason why statistics is important to try to estimate the population with a sample.

A bag contains 6 red marbles, 2 white marbles, and 1 gray marble.You randomly pick out a marble,record its color,and put it back
Dominik [7]
You should expect 5. There is one grey marble out of 9 total, and that can be expressed as 1/9. Since you repeat it 45 times, it's 1/9 45 times, or 1/9(45). 

\frac{1}{9} * \frac{45}{1}

1*45 is 45

9*1 is 9.

45/9 is 5.

An exterior angle is formed by one side of the triangle, and a side EXTENDED outside the triangle. Two angles are like that, ∠4 and ∠2.


Angle 3 is NOT an exterior angle because it is made up of two extended sides. It does not use one of the sides of the triangle.

What is the value of s in the equation 3 r equals 10 plus 5 s, when r equals 10? 4 8 100 200
alisha [4.7K]

Answer

<h2>4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

r = 10

Let's create an equation,

3r = 10 + 5s

plugging the value of r

3 \times 10 = 10 + 5s

Multiply the numbers

30 = 10 + 5s

Move 5s to L.H.S and change its sign

Similarly, Move 30 to R.H.S and change its sign.

- 5s = 10  - 30

Calculate

- 5s =  - 20

The difference sign ( - ) should be cancelled on both sides

5s = 20

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

\frac{5s}{2}  =  \frac{20}{5}

Calculate

s = 4

The value of s is 4.

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!
