A sample of 38 babies in the zinc group had a mean birth weight of 3328 grams. A sample of 31 babies in the placebo group had a mean birth weight of 3406 grams. Assume that the population standard deviation for the zinc group is 640 grams, while the population standard deviation for the placebo group is 851851 grams. Determine the 99% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean birth weights for "zinc" babies versus "placebo" babies.

Required:
Find the point estimate for the true difference between the population means.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-78

Step-by-step explanation:

Zinc group :

Mean, x1 = 3328

σ1 = 640

Sample size, n1 = 28

Placebo group :

Mean, x2 = 3406

σ2 = 851

Sample size, n2 = 31

The point estimate for the true difference between the population means is obtained as :

Mean difference between population :

x1 - x2 = 3328 - 3406 = - 78

Describe how to determine the average rate of change between x=4 and x=6 for the function f(x)=2x^3+4. Include the average rate of change in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change is the same thing as the slope of the line between 2 points. What we have are the x values of each of 2 coordinates. What we don't have are the y values that go with those. But we can find them! Aren't you so happy?

We can find the y value that corresponds to each of those x values by evaluating the function at each x value, one at a time. That means plug in 4 for x and solve for y, and plug in 6 for x and solve for y.

[tex]f(4)=2(4)^3+4[/tex] and doing the math on that gives us

f(4) = 132 and the coordinate is (4, 132).

Doing the same for 6:

[tex]f(6)=2(6)^3+4[/tex] and doing the math on that gives us

f(6) = 436 and the coordinate is (6, 436). Now we can use the slope formula to find the average rate of change (aka slope):

[tex]m=\frac{436-132}{6-4}=\frac{304}{2}=152[/tex] where m represents the slope

You are installing new carpeting in a family room. The room is rectangular with dimensions 20 1/2 feet × 13 1/8 feet. You intend to install baseboards around the entire perimeter of the room except for a 3 1/2-foot opening into the kitchen. How many linear feet of board must you purchase?

Answers

Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Consider the function ƒ(x) = (x + 1)2 – 1. Which of the following functions stretches ƒ(x) vertically by a factor of 4?

A) ƒ(x) = 1∕4(x + 1)2 – 4
B) ƒ(x) = (1∕4x + 1)2 + 3
C) ƒ(x) = 4(x + 1)2 – 1
D) ƒ(x) = 4(4x + 1)2 – 1

Answers

Answer:

C f(x) = 4(x+1)2-1

Step-by-step explanation:

factor of 4 = 2^2

(x+1)2-1 = 4(x+1) 2-1 = with x

           =   4(+1) 2-1  = without x

           =  (4 - 4) 2 = individual products of -1

           =  (8 - 8 ) = individual products of 2

           =   8 - 8  = 2^2 -2^2

           =  2^2 - 2^2

(x+1)2-1 = 4(x+1)2-1 = with x

            = 2x^2 -2^2

          -x = 2^2 -2^2

            x = -2^2-2^2

            x = 4

which proves f(x) is a factor of 4

Using the correlation Coefficient calculator ; the correlation Coefficient, R = 0.875

H0 : no relationship exists

H1 : relationship exists

Using the R Coefficient ;

The test statistic :

T = r / √(1 - r²) / (n - 2)

n = 6

The test statistic :

T = 0.875 / √(1 - 0.875²) / (4)

T =0.875 / 0.05859375

T = 0.9333

The Pvalue from test statistic :

df = n - 2 ; 6 - 2 = 4

Pvalue(0.933, 4) = 0.02246

At α = 0.05

Pvalue < α ; We reject H0 ; and conclude that relationship exists between price and overall score

Hank has a bottle of diluted syrup that is 60% maple syrup and a bottle of pure syrup that is 100% maple syrup in his restaurant. How many ounces of pure syrup should he mix with the diluted syrup in order to make 100 ounces of 85% maple syrup? Express your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  62.5 oz of 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of ounces of pure syrup. Then (100-p) is the number of ounces of 60% syrup. The amount of maple syrup in the desired mix is ...

  p +0.60(100 -p) = 0.85(100)

  0.40p +60 = 85 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.40p = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60

  p = 62.5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.4

62.5 ounces of pure syrup should be mixed with the diluted syrup to make 100 ounces of 85% maple syrup.

_____

The other 37.5 ounces will be 60% syrup.

find the Zscore of each scores and their corresponding probability uinag the standard distribution table :

P(Z < (x - μ) /σ) - P(Z < (x - μ) / σ))

P(Z < (1320 - 1250) /120) - P(Z < (970 - 1250) / 120))

P(Z < 0.5833) - P(Z < - 2.333)

B.)Under 1400

x = 1400

P(Z < 400)

P(Z < (x - μ) /σ)

P(Z < (1400 - 1250) /120)

P(Z < 1.25) = 0.8943

C.) Over 1290

P(Z > 1290)

P(Z < (x - μ) /σ)

P(Z > (1290 - 1250) /120 = 0.3333

P(Z > z) = 1 - P(Z < 0.3333) = P(Z < 0.3333) = 0.6304

P(Z > 0.3333) = 1 - 0.6304 = 0.3696

Option D is the correct answer.

We need to find which options describe the transformations applied in the given figure.

What are the transformations?

There are four common types of transformations - translation, rotation, reflection, and dilation. From the definition of the transformation, we have a rotation about any point, reflection over any line, and translation along any vector. These are rigid transformations wherein the image is congruent to its pre-image. They are also known as isometric transformations. Dilation is performed at about any point and it is non-isometric.

From the given figure we can see 5 units down and a counterclockwise rotation of 90°.

Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

B) 7
C)
D) 5

Answers

Answer:

A)

Step-by-step explanation:

what is C ? 6 ?

if that is the case, then my answer is A) 8

why ? because then the other 2 sides together are just as long as this third side, and we would have just a flat line with the length of 8.

every side in a triangle must be shorter than the other two sides together.

but - fully formally such a flat line could be considered a special triangle with 2 angles of 0 degrees and one angle of 180 degrees.

that is why I am asking about the missing C answer. it could be a trick question. but if C is truly 6, then yes, A is the right answer. if C is larger than 8, then C is the right answer.

find the measure of the largest exterior angle​

Answers

Answer:

116 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we must know what the sum of exterior angles are on a given shape, which is 360 degrees.

So, let's put the equation up.

8x-21+4x-13+5x-11+6x+14=360

Let's add all the x variables together to simplify it. And also add the number together too.

8x+4x+6x+5x= 23x

(-21)+(-13)+(-11)+14 = -31

The equation we have is in its initial simplified version. Let's simplify it even more to solve.

23x-31=360

Add 31 to both sides.

23x=391

Divide 23 on both sides to find x.

391/23 = x

x= 17

Let's put the value x in each exterior angle.

A= 8(17)-21 = 115 degrees

B= 6(17)+14 = 116 degrees

C= 5(17)-11 = 74 degrees

D= 4(17)-13 = 55 degrees

From the work above, we know B is the largest exterior angle, which is 116 degrees.

Hope this helps!
