A simple random sample of eight high school students' ACT scores gave the following data: What is a point estimate for μ, the mean test score for the population? a. A point estimate cannot be computed since the data for the whole population are not available. b. 235 c. 29.38 d. 4.84

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: c, is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean is the best point estimate for the population mean in a particular study.

Given data of scores: [tex]$\begin{array}{llllllll}27 & 30 & 20 & 29 & 28 & 36 & 34 & 31\end{array}$[/tex]

Sample mean = [tex]\frac{\text{Sum of values}}{\text{Number of values}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{27+30+20+29+28+36+34+31}{8}\approx29.38[/tex]

Hence, a point estimate for μ, the mean test score for the population is 29.38

Thus , c. is the correct option.

Find the quotient of these complex numbers (6-I) divided by (4+3i)=

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by writing the division as a fraction:

[tex]\frac{6-i}{4+3i}[/tex]

In order to rationalize the denominator, we need to multiply by the conjugate:

[tex]\frac{6-i}{4+3i} *\frac{4-3i}{4-3i}\\\\\frac{(6-i)(4-3i)}{4^2-(3i)^2}\\\\\frac{24-18i-4i+3i^2}{16+9}\\\\\frac{24-22i-3}{25}\\\\\frac{21-22i}{25} \\\\\frac{21}{25} -\frac{22}{25} i[/tex]

At an auditorium, 3 1/2 sections are filled with people watching a play. Exactly 3/5 of the people watching the play are parents. What fraction of the sections are filled with parents?

Answers

Answer:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of sections filled = 3¹/₂ = 7 / 2 sections

Number of fraction parents watching play = 3/5

Find:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents]

Computation:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = Total number of sections filled x Number of fraction parents watching play

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = [7/2] x [3/5]

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 21 / 10 sections

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

a box is created from a sheet of cardboard 40in. on a side by cutting a square from each corner and folding up the sides. let x represent the lenght pf the sides of squares removed from each corner.
What are the factors of this polynomial?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A box is created from a sheet of cardboard 40in. on a side by cutting a square from each corner and folding up the sides.

Let x represent the length of the sides of squares removed from each corner.

(a) The volume of a cuboid is given by :

V = lbh

Put values,

V = x(40-2x)(40-2x)

(b) (40-2x) = -2(x-20)

So,

V = x(40-2x)(40-2x)

= [tex]4x\left(x-20\right)^2[/tex]

(c) [tex]4x\left(x-20\right)^2=4x^3-160x^2+1600x[/tex]

It is a cubic polynomial. Its degree is 3.

Find the area of this isosceles trapezoid. A) 85.5 units2 B) 171 units2 C) 342 units? 345 units?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B) 171 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

Filling in the given base and height values, we find the area to be ...

  A = 1/2(23 +15)(9) = (19)(9) = 171 . . . square units

_____

Additional comment

You can select the correct answer choice simply on the basis of "reasonableness." If this were a 9×15 rectangle, its area would be 9×15 = 135 square units, more than 85.5. You know its area is less than a 9×23 rectangle, so is less than 9×23 = 207 square units. Only one answer choice is a value between 135 and 207.

Multiplication by 9 is not so hard. It is multiplication by 10-1:

  15×9 = 15×(10 -1) = 150 -15 = 135

Click on the area of the square?

Answers

Answer:

The answer for this question is 64 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of square , the formula is :

side × side , so in this question we should do 8×8 , since one of the side is 8 cm .

8×8 = 64

Thus the answer of your question is 64

༆SOLUTION:

—————————————————

[tex]\mathrm{A = s²}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{A = (8 \: cm)²}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{A = (8 \: cm)(8 \: cm)}[/tex]

[tex]{\boxed{\mathrm\green{A = 64 \: cm²}}}[/tex]

If P is inversely proportional to Q and if pad when Q = 4. Find the value
of when Q = 3.

A) 7 B) 6 C) 12

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If p is  inversely proportional to Q and P is 6 when q = 4, then;

p = k/q

6 = k/4

k = 6*4

k = 24

To get P when q = 3

Recall;

p = k/q

p = 24/3

p = 8

Hence the required value of p is 8

Note that the value of initial Q was assumed

The distance by road from town A to town B is 257 km. What is 50% of that distance?

Answers

Answer: 128.5km

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the information that the distance by road from town A to town B is 257 km. To get 50% of the distance, we simply have to multiply the distance given by 50%. This will be:

= 50% × 257km

= 50/100 × 257km

= 0.5 × 257km

= 128.5km

Therefore, 50% of the distance is 128.5km.

find how far away (ground distance) from the catapult will white bird be at its highest. (round to the nearest 2 decimal points)
h= -0.114x^2+2.29x+3.5


Answers

Answer:

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].

Equation for the height:

The height of the bird after x seconds is given by:

[tex]h(x) = -0.114x^2 + 2.29x + 3.5[/tex]

Which is a quadratic equation with [tex]a = -0.114, b = 2.29, c = 3.5[/tex].

When the bird is at its highest?

Quadratic equation with [tex]a < 0[/tex], and thus, at the vertex. The ground distance is the x-value of the vertex. Thus

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2.29}{2(-0.114)} = 10.04[/tex]

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Answers

Answer:   55

==============================================

The 125 degree angle and angle 6 are supplementary. This is because of the same side interior angles theorem.

Let x be the measure of angle 6. Add this to 125, set the sum equal to 180, and solve for x.

x+125 = 180

x = 180-125

x = 55

------------

Or you could approach it this way:

y = measure of angle 2

y+125 = 180

y = 55

angle 6 = angle 2 (corresponding angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

-------------

Yet another way you could solve:

z = measure of angle 3

z+125 = 180

z = 55

angle 6 = angle 3 (alternate interior angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

A similar approach using alternate interior angles would involve angle 5 = 125, and then noticing that x+125 = 180 solves to x = 55

Solve for x. Assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent.
