Answers

Answer 1

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that a sample size of 13 is needed.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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 [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For this problem, using a calculator:

The mean is [tex]\mu = 37.9[/tex]The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 14.07[/tex]

The sample size needed is n when [tex]s = 4[/tex], as by the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard errors of the mean, hence [tex]2s = 8 \rightarrow s = 4[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

[tex]4 = \frac{14.07}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4\sqrt{n} = 14.07[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{14.07}{4}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{14.07}{4}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 12.37[/tex]

Rounding up, a sample size of 13 is needed.

A triangle has an angle that measures 60°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:5. What are the measures of those two angles?

Answers

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

all 3 angles of all triangles sum to 180

if one angle = 60, the other two angles sum to 120

a 3:5 ratio means one angle is 3/8 of 120 and the other is 5/8 of 120

3/8 times 120 = 3(120)/8 = 3(15)= 45 degrees

5/8 times 120 = 5(120)/8 = 5(15) = 75 degrees

45+75 = 120

120+60 = 180 degrees = sum of all 3 angles

What is the average rate of change of the functionf (x) = 20(1/4)^xfrom x = 1 to x = 2?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the average rate of change of a function f(x) between two values of x is

(f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)

f(x) = 20× (1/4)^x

x1 = 1

x2 = 2

f(x2) = 20× (1/4)² = 20/16 = 5/4

f(x1) = 20× (1/4)¹ = 20/4 = 5

(5/4 - 5) / (2 - 1) = (5/4 - 20/4) / 1 = -15/4

the average rate of change is -15/4.

A population of bacteria is initially 2,000. After three hours the population is 1,000.

Assuming this rate of decay continues, find the exponential function that represents the size of the bacteria population after t hours. Write your answer in the form f(t)=a(b)t. Report numbers as fractions when necessary, or if using decimals, round to four decimal places.

Answers

The population starts at 2000, so a=2000.

We also know that the population in 3 hours is 1000, so we can setup the equation:

     2000 b^3 = 1000

This gets us:

    b^3 = 1/2

And taking the cube root of both sides gives us:

    b ≈ 0.7937005259841

Rounding that to 4 places, we have:

    f(t) = 2000 (0.7937)^t

6.2 Margin of error and the confidence interval. A study of stress on the campus of your university using the College Undergraduate Stress Scale (CUSS) reported an average stress level of 1123 (a higher score indicating more stress) with a margin of error of 43 for 95% confidence. The study was based on a random sample of 400 undergraduates. a. Give the 95% confidence interval. b. If you wanted 99% confidence for the same study, would your margin of error be greater than, equal to, or less than 43

Answers

Using confidence interval concepts, it is found that:

a. The 95% confidence interval is (1080, 1166).

b. The margin of error would be greater than 43.

Item a:

The interval is the sample mean plus/minus the margin of error, hence:

[tex]1123 - 43 = 1080[/tex]

[tex]1123 + 43 = 1166[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is (1080, 1166).

Item b:

The margin of error is direct proportional to the critical value.The higher the confidence level, the higher the critical value, and thus, the higher the margin of error.

Hence: The margin of error would be greater than 43.

Answers

the family brought 2271 tickets.

Answer:

5 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ticket costs $224 including the travel insurance and they are charged $22 regardless of the number of tickets they buy.

Therefore, the equation is 224x + 22 = 1142

First, you have to subtract the 22 from both sides to amount to 224x = 1120

Now, you divide 224 from 1120 to get 5

50 points + brainliest answer questions 7 and 8 with work and all

Answers

Answer:

7) m∠BHE = 146°

8) m∠BAC = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 7:

Given that, [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{CD}\:||\:\overline{EF}}[/tex], and that [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{AB}}[/tex] is a transveral.

We are also provided with the following measures of the angles: m∠DGH = 2x, and m∠FHB = 5x - 51.

∠DGH and ∠FHB are also corresponding angles, as they have corresponding positions on the same side of the transversal, [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{AB}}[/tex]. These two angles also have the same measure.  

Solve for x:

In order to find the measure of ∠BHE, we could set up an equality statement on ∠DGH and ∠FHB to solve for the value of x.

m∠DGH = m∠FHB

2x = 5x - 51

Add 51 and subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:

2x -2x + 51  = 5x - 2x - 51 + 51

51 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{51}{3}\:=\:\frac{3x}{3}}[/tex]

x = 17

 m∠DGH = 2x = 2(17) = 34°,

 m∠FHB = 5x - 51 = 5(17) - 51 = 34°.

Since ∠FHB and ∠BHE are supplements (whose sum add up to 180°), we could determine the measure of ∠BHE as follows:

m∠BHE + m∠FHB  = 180°

m∠BHE + 34° = 180°

m∠BHE + 34°- 34° = 180°- 34°

m∠BHE = 146°.

Therefore, the measure of ∠BHE is 146°.

Question 8:

Given that ΔABC with [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{AC}}[/tex] extended to D, and that m∠ABC = 63° and m∠BCD = 92°:

The Exterior Angle Theorem states that the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two nonadjacent interior angles. In other words: ∠BCD = ∠BAC + ∠ABC.  

Before we could apply the Exterior Angle Theorem, we must first find m∠BAC. Since ∠BCD and ∠BCA are supplements:

m∠BCD + m∠BCA = 180°

92° + m∠BCA = 180°

92° - 92°+ m∠BCA = 180° - 92°

m∠BCA = 88°

Solve for m∠BAC:

Now that we have the measure for ∠BCA, we can find m∠BAC by applying the Triangle Sum Theorem where it states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

m∠BCD + m∠ABC + m∠BAC = 180°

92° + 63° + m∠BAC  = 180°

125° + m∠BAC  = 180°

155° - 155° + m∠BAC  = 180° - 155°

m∠BAC  = 25°

Therefore, the measure of ∠BAC is 25°.
