You measure 20 turtles' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 45 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 11.5 ounces. Based on this, what is the maximal margin of error associated with a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight. Give your answer as a decimal, to two places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: the maximal margin of error associated with a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight = 4.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for margin of error : [tex]E=\dfrac{z^*\times (Population\ standard\ deviation)}{\sqrt{Sample\ size}}[/tex]

, where z* = Critical z-value.

Given: population standard deviation = 11.5 ounces

Sample size = 20

Z value for 90% confidence level = 1.645

margin of error (E) = [tex]\dfrac{1.645\times11.5}{\sqrt{20}}[/tex]

[tex]\approx4.23[/tex]

Hence, the maximal margin of error associated with a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight = 4.23

Answer:

  5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is common, it can be found from the ratio of any pair of adjacent terms.

  r = 480/768 = (5·96)/(8·96) = 5/8

The common ratio is 5/8.

A club is choosing 2 members to serve on a committee. The club has nominated 3 women and 3 men. Based on chance alone, what is the probability that one woman and one man will be chosen to be on the committee

Answers

Answer: 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 3 women and 3 men available to form a 2 member committee.

No of ways, a man can be chosen are [tex]3[/tex]

Similarly, no of ways a woman can be chosen are 3

Therefore, probability of choosing 2 members i.e. 1 man and 1 women is

[tex]\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{3}{6}\times \dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]

If the order matter, then

[tex]\Rightarrow P=2\times \dfrac{3\times 3}{6\times 5}\\\\\Rightarrow P=0.6[/tex]

The probability that 1 woman and 1 man will be chosen is "0.6".

According to the question, the club has nominated:

Number of women = 3 Number of men = 3

Now,

→ The number of ways to select two persons from 6 will be:

= [tex]\binom{6}{2}[/tex]

hence,

The probability that one woman and one man will be chosen will be:

→ [tex]P(1 \ women \ and \ 1 \ women) = \frac{\binom{3}{1} \binom{3}{1}}{\binom{6}{2}}[/tex]

                                              [tex]= 3\times \frac{3}{15}[/tex]

                                              [tex]= \frac{9}{15}[/tex]

                                              [tex]= 0.6[/tex]

Thus the above answer is right.

X=-3 is your answer

simplify the equation, cancel equal terms, move constant to the right, calculate, divide both sides !!!!

Answer: x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's eliminate the square root

[tex](\sqrt{x^2-5x+2})^2=(\sqrt{x^2+17})^2\\x^2-5x+2=x^2+17[/tex]

Now subtract [tex]x^2\\[/tex] from both sides

[tex]x^2-5x+2-x^2=x^2+17-x^2\\-5x+2=17[/tex]

Subtract 2 from both sides

[tex]-5x+2-2=17-2\\-5x=15[/tex]

Finally divide both sides by -5

[tex]\frac{-5x}{-5} =\frac{15}{-5} \\x=-3[/tex]

Find the equation of a line that contains the points (0,0) and (6,−7). Write the equation in slope-intercept form, using fractions when required.

Answers

Use the slope formula below:

[tex] \large \boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]

To form an equation of a line - we need to find a slope and the y-intercept from y = mx+b. We are given two points which we can substitute in the formula.

[tex] \large{m = \frac{0 - ( - 7)}{0 - 6} } \\ \large{m = \frac{0 + 7}{ - 6} \longrightarrow \frac{7}{ - 6} } \\ \large \boxed{m = - \frac{7}{6} }[/tex]

We have finally got the slope. Next is to find the y-intercept. First we rewrite the equation of y = mx+b by substituting the slope.

[tex] \large \boxed{y = mx + b}[/tex]

The equation above is the slope-intercept form. Substitute m = -7/6 in the equation.

[tex] \large{y = - \frac{7}{6} x + b}[/tex]

Since the graph passes through (0,0) which is an origin point. In y = mx+b if the graph passes through origin point, that means the b-value is 0. Therefore:

[tex] \large \boxed{y = - \frac{7}{6} + 0 \longrightarrow y = - \frac{7}{6} x}[/tex]

Answer

y = -7x/6

Answers

Dividing each term in the given series by 0.315 reveals a simple geometric sum,

0.315 (1 + 1/1,000 + 1/1,000,000 + …)

or

0.315 (1 + 1/10³ + 1/10⁶ + …)

or

[tex]\displaystyle 0.315 \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac1{10^{3n}} = 0.315 \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac1{1000^n}[/tex]

i.e. a geometric sum with a common ratio of 1/1,000. I'm not sure what your instructor expects exactly, but you may already know that

[tex]\displaystyle a\sum_{n=0}^\infty r^n = \frac a{1-r}[/tex]

if |r | < 1. This is the case here, so

0.315 (1 + 1/1,000 + 1/1,000,000 + …) = 0.315 / (1 - 1/1,000)

… = (315/1000) / (999/1000)

… = 315/999

Historically, the average diameter of the holes drilled has been 0.25 cm and the average range has been 0.10 cm. Samples of size 4 will be collected. For the R-chart, what is the value of upper control limit

Answers

Solution :

Given the average range of the holes drilled = 0.10 cm

The average diameter of the holes drilled = 0.25 cm

The sample size = 4

For the sample size of 4, the factor for control limit for the range ([tex]D_4[/tex]) = 2.28  (From the table of constants for X-bar and R-chart)

The upper control limit for the R-chart = R-bar x [tex]D_4[/tex]

                                                                = 0.10 x 2.28

                                                                = 0.228

Therefore, the answer is greater than 0.202 but less than or equal to 0.302

A project to build a new bridge seems to be going very well since the project is well ahead of schedule and costs seem to be running very low. A major milestone has been reached where the first two activities have been totally completed and the third activity is 60 percent complete. The planners were expecting to be only 50 percent through the third activity at this time. The first activity involves prepping the site for the bridge. It was expected that this would cost $1,420,000 and it was done for only $1,300,000. The second activity was the pouring of concrete for the bridge. This was expected to cost $10,500,000 but was actually done for $9,000,000. The third and final activity is the actual construction of the bridge superstructure. This was expected to cost a total of $8,500,000. To date they have spent $5,000,000 on the superstructure.
