You measure 22 watermelons' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 36 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 6.9 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean watermelon weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval formula is expressed as;

CI = xbar ±(z*s/√n)

xbar is the mean = 36

z is the z score at 95% CI = 1.96

s is the standard deviation = 6.9

n is the sample size = 22

Substitute

CI = 36  ±(1.96*6.9/√22)

CI = 36  ±(1.96*6.9/4.6904)

CI = 36  ±(1.96*1.4711)

CI = 36  ± 2.8833

CI = (36 - 2.8833, 36 + 2.8833)

CI = (33.1167, 38.8833)

Hence the 95% CI for the true population mean is 33.12<x<38.88

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 4(x + 2)2 = 36 x = −11 and x = 7 x = −7 and x = 11 x = −5 and x = 1 x = −1 and x = 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The solutions to the quadratic equation 4(x + 2)² = 36 is x = -5 and x = 1.

Hence, option c) x = -5 and x = 1 is the correct answer.

What is a Quadratic Equation?

Quadratic equation is simply an algebraic expression of the second degree in x. Quadratic equation in its standard form is;

ax² + bx + c = 0

Where x is the unknown

To solve for x, we use the quadratic formula

x = (-b±√(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

Given that;

4(x + 2)² = 36

4( x(x + 2) + 2(x+2) ) = 36

4( x² + 2x + 2x + 4 ) = 36

4( x² + 4x + 4 ) = 36

4x² + 16x + 16 = 36

4x² + 16x + 16 - 36 = 0

4x² + 16x - 20 = 0

We can further simply ( divide through by 4 )

x² + 4x - 5 = 0

Hence,

a = 1b = 4c = -5

x = (-b±√(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

x = (-4±√(4² - (4 × 1 × -5)) / (2×1)

x = (-4±√(16 - (-20)) / (2)

x = (-4±√(16 + 20)) / (2)

x = (-4±√(36)) / 2

x = (-4±6)) / 2

Hence

x = (-4-6)) / 2 and x = (-4+6)) / 2

x = -10/2 and x = 2/2

x = -5 and x = 1

The solutions to the quadratic equation 4(x + 2)² = 36 is x = -5 and x = 1.

Hence, option c) x = -5 and x = 1 is the correct answer.

Which reason justifies statement 2?

A) Vertical angles are congruent

B) Corresponding angles are congruent

C) Alternate interior angles are congruent

D) Alternate exterior angles are congruent

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Is b) corresponding angles are congruent.

The reason that justifies statement two: "Angle Y ≅ Angle 4", is option C "Alternate interior angles are congruent".

What are congruent angles?

Angles that are of the same measurement are called congruent.

Suppose that two angles ∠A and ∠B are of the same measure, then

[tex]m\angle A = m\angle B[/tex] is the notation to say that they are of the same measurement, where the small m shows that it's the measurement's the angles they're preceding.

We can see that angle Y and angle 4 are two alternate angles within the two parallel lines cut across by the transversal, therefore, they are called alternate interior angles.

Since Alternate interior angles are always congruent to each other.

Thwithefore, the reason that justifies statement two: "Angle Y ≅ Angle 4", is "Alternate interior angles are congruent".

The point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through points (8, 4) and (0, 2) is y - 4 = (x – 8). What
is the slope-intercept form of the equation for this line?
O y = 1 x - 12
O y = -x-4
O y=+*+2
O y=x+6

Answers

Answer: y = x/4 + 2

Y equals one fourth x plus two.

Step-by-step explanation:

There seems to be a typo on answer choice c.

Slope intercept form is y= mx + b

m is the slope. b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is given here in the coordinate (0,2) It is +2

Slope is rise/run.

Rise: Difference in given y-values is 4-2 = 2.

Run: Difference in x-values is 8-0=8.

So the slope is 2/8 = 1/4

The equation is y = 1/4 x + 2
