how do you calculate the population mean

Answer:

Option (D)

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point E is in the mid of the segment DF,

Therefore, by the Segment addition postulate,

DF = DE + EF

Since DF = (8x - 3), DE = (x - 3) and EF = (6x + 5)

By substituting these values in the given postulate,

(8x - 3) = (x - 3) + (6x + 5)

8x - 3 = (x + 6x) + (5 - 3)

8x - 3 = 7x + 2

8x - 7x = 3 + 2

x = 5

Therefore, x = 5 will be the answer.

Answer:

x^3 - x^2 + 11x - 1

-x^3 - 8x^2 + 5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the sum

(x^3+5x^2+3x-7)+(8x-6x^2+6)

=x^3+5x^2+3x-7+8x-6x^+6

Collect like terms

=x^3 +5x^2-6x^2+3x+8x-7+6

Add the like terms

= x^3 - x^2 + 11x - 1

Find the difference (7x-3x^2+2)-(x^3+5x^2+2x-5)

(7x-3x^2+2)-(x^3+5x^2+2x-5)

= 7x-3x^2+2-x^3-5x^2-2x+5

Collect like terms

= -x^3-3x^2-5x^2+7x-2x+2+5

Add the like terms

= -x^3 - 8x^2 + 5x + 7

Answer:

A. No conclusion can be drawn regarding the means because the box plots only show medians and quartiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

A box display tells represents a five-number summary that consists of the minimum value, lower quartile, median, upper quartile and maximum value. It could also tell you which data point is an outlier, if there are any.

Mean value for a data set that can hardly be ascertained or derived from a box plot display itself.

Therefore, the statements regarding the means of both data sets that is most likely true is: "A. No conclusion can be drawn regarding the means because the box plots only show medians and quartiles."

Answer:

14.13 cubic feet of lake water can fill the given balloon.

Step-by-step explanation:

concept used:

volume of sphere = 4/3 [tex]\pi r^3[/tex]

where r is the radius of sphere

we take [tex]\pi[/tex] = 3.14

_____________________________________

shape of balloon can be taken as spherical.

Amount water filled in the balloon will be equal to capacity of balloon which is equal to volume of spherical balloon.

Given radius of balloon = 1.5 feet

Thus, volume of balloon = 4/3 [tex]\pi[/tex] 1.5^3 = 4/3*3.14*1.5^3

volume of balloon = 42.39/3 = 14.13 cubic feet

Thus, 14.13 cubic feet of lake water can fill the given balloon.

Answer:

87; 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential growth model is defined as :

F(x) = A( 1 + r)^x

Where;

A = Initial amount,

r = rate of increase

x = time

Comparing the exponential growth function with the exponential growth model given;

f(x)=87(1.02)^x

A = 87 = Initial amount

The growth rate of the model expressed as a percentage :

Taking :

(1 + r) = 1.02

1 + r = 1.02

r = 1.02 - 1

r = 0.02

Expressing r as a percentage :

0.02 * 100% = 2%

Profit is cost minus the amount you sold it for

Answer: see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an exponential equation is: y = a(b)ˣ    where

Growth:

Exponential growth is where the final value (y) is greater than the initial value (a).

An example would be the spreading of a rumor:  

You tell 1 person (a = 1) who then tells 2 people each minute (b = 2).  How many people will they have spread the rumor to after 5 minutes (x = 5)?

y = 1(2)⁵

  = 32

Decay:

Exponential decay is where the final value (y) is less than the initial value (a).

An example would be the decrease of bacteria in a person:

A person has 100 bacteria (a = 1) who takes a pill that is supposed to cut in half the number of bacteria each hour (b = 1/2).  How many bacteria will the person have after 2 hours (x = 2)?

[tex]y=100\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\.\quad =100\bigg(\dfrac{1}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\.\quad = 25[/tex]

Answer:

Policeman A = 56 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Policemen A + B = 70

If Policeman B hands out x no of tickets...

Then Policeman A hands out 4x no of tickets

meaning...

x + 4x = 70

5x = 70

x = 70/5

x = 14

Therefore Policeman A hands out..

4x = 4 × 14 = 56 tickets

Answer:

The answer is C. SSA ≅ SSA.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check for similar triangles, SSA congruence would not work because the other side can be any length. Also, there is not an SSA postulate because this theorem by itself cannot prove congruence.

The other three properties do work because they show congruence unlike the other congruent factors.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

4³ means 4 multiplied by itself 3 times, that is

4 × 4 × 4

= 16 × 4

= 64 → C

Answer:

a

        The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering

    While the point estimate of this parameter is  proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%  

b

   The condition  is met

c

   The  95% confidence interval is   [tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]

d

      If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from  the formula for margin of error i.e  [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider

e

  Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the  sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the  confidence level narrower

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n  =  1000

     The  population proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.25[/tex]

Considering question a

   The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering

    While the point estimate of this parameter is  proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%  

Considering question b

The condition for constructing a confidence interval is

        [tex]n * \r p > 5\ and \ n(1 - \r p ) >5[/tex]

So  

        [tex]1000 * 0.25 > 5 \ and \ 1000 * (1-0.25 ) > 5[/tex]

         [tex]250 > 5 \ and \ 750> 5[/tex]

Hence the condition  is met

Considering question c

    Given that the confidence level is  95%  then  the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]    

          [tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]

          [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is  

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

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

         [tex]E = Z_\frac{ \alpha }{2} * \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1 - \r p ) }{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.25 (1 - 0.25 ) }{ 1000} }[/tex]

         [tex]E = 0.027[/tex]

The  95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

            [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

substituting values  

           [tex]0.25 - 0.027 < p < 0.25 + 0.027[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]

considering d

  If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from  the formula for margin of error i.e  [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider

considering e

     Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the  sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the  confidence level narrower

Answer:

The answer is option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere is given by

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3} [/tex]

where r is the radius

From the question to calculate the radius we use the formula

radius = diameter / 2

diameter =70mm

radius = 70/2 = 35 mm

So the volume of the sphere is

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times {35}^{3} [/tex]

[tex]V = \frac{171500\pi}{3} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

Answer:

69.76

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average of the numbers. It can be gotten by adding all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers available.

Variance (σ2) measure the spread between numbers in a data set. That is, it measures how far each number in the set is from the mean .

mean value can be computed using below expression

= ∑x(i)P(x(i))

= 3(0.10)+11(0.30)+19(0.20)+27(0.40)

= 18.2

Therefore, the mean value is 18.2

The variance can be calculated using below expression

variance

= ∑(x(i)-mean)^2 P(x(i))

= (3-18.2)^2 (.10) + (11-18.2)^2 (.30) + (19-18.2)^2 (.20)+(27-18.2)^2(0.40)

= 69.76

Therefore, the variance Vale is 69.76

Answer:

In this question, we shall be accepting the null hypothesis H0 since the critical value is greater than the test statistic value

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to make a conclusion about the null hypothesis H0.

To make or give the correct conclusion about the null hypothesis in this case, we shall need to compare the absolute value of the test statistic used against the value of the critical value.

Hence, we draw a conclusion if the test statistic is larger or smaller than the critical value.

From the value given in the question, we can see that the test statistic given as 1.68 is lesser in value compared to the critical value given as 1.96.

In this kind of case, the conclusion that we shall be drawing is that we will accept the null hypothesis H0 and reject the alternative hypothesis

Replace x with 3, replace y with -8. Use order of operations PEMDAS to simplify.

x^2 + y^2 + x*y

3^2 + (-8)^2 + 3*(-8)

9 + 64 - 24

73 - 24

49

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the polynomial:

[tex]x^2+y^2+xy[/tex]

We want to evaluate when x=3 and y= -8. Therefore, we must substitute 3 for each x and -8 for each y.

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2+(3*-8)[/tex]

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

Solve the parentheses first. Multiply 3 and -9.

3*-8=-24

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2 + -24[/tex]

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2-24[/tex]

Now, solve the exponents.

3^2= 3*3 =9

[tex]9+ (-8)^2 -24[/tex]

-8^2= -8*-8= 64

[tex]9+64-24[/tex]

Add 9 and 64

[tex]73-24[/tex]

Subtract 24 from 73

[tex]49[/tex]

The polynomial evaluated for x=3 and y= -8 is 49.

This is the graph of y = x^2. It is a parabola that opens upward and has its vertex at the origin. Applying various transformations to the parent function will allow us to produce any parabolic graph we want. In effect, the parent function is like the most basic building block.

C. [tex] d = 15.81 units [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2 end points on a graph => (5, 6) and (-4, -7)

Required:

Distance between them

SOLUTION:

Distance between two points in a graph can be calculated using [tex] distance (d) = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} [/tex]

Where,

[tex] (-4, -7) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

Plug in the values into the formula and solve

[tex] d = \sqrt{(5 - (-4))^2 + (6 - (-7))^2} [/tex]

[tex] d = \sqrt{(5 + 4))^2 + (6 + 7))^2} [/tex]

[tex] d = \sqrt{(9)^2 + (13)^2} [/tex]

[tex] d = \sqrt{81 + 169} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sections = 10[/tex]

[tex]n(Gray) = 5[/tex]

[tex]n(Blue) = 5[/tex]

Required

Determine P(Gray and Blue)

Using probability formula;

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]

Calculating P(Gray)

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{n(Gray)}{Sections}[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Calculating P(Gray)

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{n(Blue)}{Sections}[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substitute these values on the given formula

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{(3,-1)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well to find the solution the the given system,

3y - 2x = -9

y = -2x + 5

So to find x lets plug in -2x + 5 for y in 3y - 2x = -9.

3(-2x + 5) - 2x = -9

Distribute

-6x + 15 - 2x = -9

-8x + 15 = -9

-15 to both sides

-8x = -24

Divide -8 to both sides

x = 3

Now that we have x which is 3, we can plug in 3 for x in y = -2x + 5.

y = -2(3) + 5

y = -6 + 5

y = -1

So the solution is (3,-1).

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

50ft by 120ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = L × W

6000ft² = L × W

L = 6000/W

When a diagonal line divides a rectangle into 2 right angled triangles, the diagonal line = Hypotenuse of either of the triangle and it is the longest side.

The formula for a right angle triangle =

a² + b² = c²( c = hypotenuse)

We are told in the question that:

A diagonal between opposite corners is measured to be 10 ft longer than one side of the parcel

Let us assume the side that the hypotenuse is longer than = Width

Hence, the Diagonal = (W + 10)²

Therefore

L² + W² = (W + 10)²

Since L = 6000/W

W² + (6000/W)² = (W + 10)²

W² + (6000/W)² = (W + 10) (W + 10)

W² + (6000/W)² = W² + 10W + 10W + 100

W² + (6000/W)² = W² + 20W + 100

W² - W² + (6000/W)² = 20W+ 100

6000²/W² = 20W + 100

6000² = W²( 20W + 100)

6000² = 20W³ + 100W²

20W³ + 100W² - 6000² = 0

20W³ + 100W² - 36000000 = 0

20(W³ + 5W² - 1800000) = 0

Factorising the quadratic equation,

20(W − 120)(W² + 125W + 15000) = 0

W - 120 = 0

W = 120

Therefore,

W(Width) = 120feet

Since the Width = 120 feet

We can find the length

6000ft² = L × W

L = 6000/W

L = 6000/120

L = 50 feet

The dimensions of the land, correct to the nearest foot is 50ft by 120ft
