The heights of dogs, in inches, in a city are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 7 inches and an unknown population mean. If a random sample of 20 dogs is taken and results in a sample mean of 21 inches, find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. z0.10z0.10 z0.05z0.05 z0.025z0.025 z0.01z0.01 z0.005z0.005 1.282 1.645 1.960 2.326 2.576 You may use a calculator or the common z values above. Round the final answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval  is  [tex] 17.932  <  \mu <  20  + 22.068[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =7 \ inches[/tex]

  The sample size is  n  =  20

  The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 20[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96 *  \frac{7 }{\sqrt{20} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 2.068[/tex]        

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>     [tex] 20  - 2.068  <  \mu <  20  + 2.068[/tex]

=>     [tex] 17.932  <  \mu <  20  + 22.068[/tex]

Given the inequality expression

[tex]6\:x\:-\:12\:-\:x\:\le \:3[/tex]

Group like terms

[tex]6x-x-12\le \:3[/tex]

Add similar elements: 6x-x=5x

[tex]5x-12\le \:3[/tex]

Add 12 to both sides

[tex]5x-12+12\le \:3+12[/tex]

A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles as shown.

The perimeter of one small rectangle is 21cm. The width of one small rectangle is x cm.

Work out the perimeter of the large rectangle. The final line of your answer should be the form, perimeter of large rectangle is ...cm

Answers

Answer: 35 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the image attached, the A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles,

The width of one small rectangle is x cm and the length of one small rectangle is 2x cm. Therefore the perimeter of the small rectangle is given as:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(2x + x) = 21

2(3x) = 21

6x = 21

x = 21/6 = 3.5 cm

x = 3.5 cm

From the image attached, the width of the large rectangle is 2x (x + x) and the length is 3x (2x + x). Therefore, the perimeter of the large rectangle is:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(3x + 2x) = Perimeter

Perimeter = 2(5x)

Perimeter = 10x

Perimeter = 10(3.5)

Perimeter = 35 cm

I need help with this

Answers

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

I gotchu fam. The first thing that you would want to do is find the slope. The slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. Based on the points on the line, the change in y is 2 because it goes up two, and the change in x is one because it goes over 1. This would make your slope 2/1, or just 2! Now we have our slope, so we want to find our y-intercept. There are two ways that we can do this. The first way is just eyeballing it, but sometimes that's not always accurate. We're just going to do that because its faster (lol). It looks around -2. With this information, we have our entire equation! y=mx+b. we can plug in our information. y=2x-2. And that's how your answer's A! Hope this helps.

What is Least Common Multiple(LCM)?

The least common multiple is defined as the least positive integer that is dividable by both given numbers.

A group's Least Common Multiple (LCM) is the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers.

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers, you can list the multiples of each number and find the smallest number that is a multiple of both.

The multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and so on. The multiples of 14 are 14, 28, 42, 56, and so on. The smallest number that is a multiple of both 6 and 14 is 42, so the LCM of 6 and 14 is 42.

Therefore, the denominators in the fractions 5/6 and 1/14 have an LCM of 42.

Kevin and his children went into a restaurant and he bought $31.50 worth of hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $2.25. He bought 3 times as many hotdogs as drinks.

Answers

Answer:

He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Kevin and his children went into a restaurant and bought $31.50 worth of hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $2.25.

To solve the system of equations, we'll call the variables:

x = number of hotdogs

y = number of drinks

The first condition yields the equation:

4.50x + 2.25y = 31.50          [1]

It's also known he bought 3 times as many hotdogs as drinks, thus:

x = 3y         [2}

Substituting [2] in [1]:

4.50(3y) + 2.25y = 31.50

Operating:

13.5y + 2.25y = 31.50

15.75y = 31.50

y = 31.50/15.75

y = 2

And

x = 3*2 = 6

He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks

What is the area of a hexagon with a side length of 10? it also has a rectangle in it with other measurements but the question is asking for the area of the hectagon.

Answers

Answer:

there is a formula for a hexagon ..  it's

Area = 3[tex]\sqrt{3\\}[/tex]/2 * [tex]length^{2}[/tex]

where length is the length of one side, assuming all sides are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

3*[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]/2= 7.348469228.........

since the length is 10...   the length squared is 100

then the total area of the hexagon is 734.8469228...... [tex]units^{2}[/tex].. what ever they are

if you want to work with some concepts.. you could also say that a hexagon is just a box with the corners cut off and the triangles that are missing are the equilateral right triangles with a hypotenuse of 10 .  and since 2 pieces of those triangles make a square.. you can subtract two squares of that size from the bigger box that the hexagon fits into.  this is a long way to figure this out but might be good for trigonometry practice   :)

it will also be 734.8463288.....  see if you can work that out :)

What’s the value of x? :/

Answers

Answer:

[tex] x = 27 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to congruent chords and arcs theorem, if [tex] \overline{XY} \cong \overline{ZY} [/tex] then [tex] \arc{XY} \cong \arc{ZY} [/tex].

This means that [tex] \arc{XY} = \arc{ZY} = (6x - 20) degrees [/tex]

Thus:

[tex] \arc{XY} + \arc{ZY} + \arc{ZX} = 360 [/tex] (full circle = 360°)

[tex] \arc{XY} = (6x - 20) [/tex]

[tex] \arc{ZY} = (6x - 20) [/tex]

[tex] \arc{ZX} = 76 [/tex]

Plug in the values into the equation

[tex] (6x - 20) + (6x - 20) + 76 = 360 [/tex]

[tex] 6x - 20 + 6x - 20 + 76 = 360 [/tex]

Add like terms

[tex] 12x + 36 = 360 [/tex]

Subtract 36 on both sides

[tex] 12x = 360 - 36 [/tex]

[tex] 12x = 324 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 12

[tex] x = 27 [/tex]
