Answer:
a) The mean is 18 and the standard deviation is 1.79.
b) The interpretation is that the standard deviation of the sample means of groups of 20 students will be of 1.79, which is the sample error, which is different from the population standard deviation.
c) 0.2005 = 20.05% probability that a sample of 20 students has a mean score of 19.5 or more.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Mean of 18 and a standard deviation of 8.
This means that [tex]\mu = 18, \sigma = 8[/tex]
Sample of 20:
This means that [tex]n = 20, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{20}} = 1.79[/tex]
(a) Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x¯.
By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 18 and the standard deviation is 1.79.
(b) Interpret the standard deviation from part (a).
The interpretation is that the standard deviation of the sample means of groups of 20 students will be of 1.79, which is the sample error, which is different from the population standard deviation.
(c) Find the probability that a sample of 20 students has a mean score of 19.5 or more.
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 19.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{19.5 - 18}{1.79}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.84[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.84[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7995
1 - 0.7995 = 0.2005
0.2005 = 20.05% probability that a sample of 20 students has a mean score of 19.5 or more.

Persons taking a 30-hour review course to prepare for a standardized excam averago a score of 620 on that exam. Persons taking a 70-hour review course average a score of 809. Find a linear function, S(t), which fits this data, and which
expresses score as a function of time. Use this function to predict an average score for persons taking a 42-hour review course. Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest tenth as needed.
Answer:
S(t) = 4.725t + 478.25
S(t) = 4.725(42)+478.25
S(t) = 676.7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, score is a function of time, that means time is the x-axis, while score is the y-axis.
Order the pairs to get:
(30,620) and (70, 809)
With these values, you use the the equation [tex]\frac{x2-x1}{y2-y1}[/tex] to get the slope m.
[tex]\frac{70-30}{809-620} = 4.725[/tex]
Use this equation and input any ordered pair to get the final function.
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-620 = 4.725x-141.75
y = 4.725x + 478.25
Replace x with t and y with S(t) to fit the x & y axis of the question.

Answer: GJ= 27.23
i dont know how to explain this lol sorry but that answer is right
The length of arc GJ is equivalent to 26π/3 units.
What is Circumferance?Circumferance is defined as the length of the boundary of any two dimensional shape. Mathematically, we can write circumferance as -
C = ∫F(x) dx
Given is that in circle H with m ∠GHJ = 104 and GH = 15 units.
The length of the arc subtending an angle θ at the center is -
L = θ/360 x 2πr
L = 104/360 x 2π x 15
L = 13/45 x 2π x 15
L = 26π/3 units
Therefore, the length of arc GJ is equivalent to 26π/3 units.

The recorded speed of 20 randomly selected vehicles is given below: 2038243927402837293530313219331834213623 Calculate the sample mean, standard deviation, and the median of the above data. (Round to one decimal place
Answer:
[tex]\bar x =29.7[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 6.81[/tex]
[tex]Median = 30.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Data:20,38,24,39,27,40,28,37,29,35,30,31,32,19,33,18,34,21,36,23[/tex]
[tex]n = 20[/tex]
Solving (a): The sample mean
This is calculated as:
[tex]\bar x =\frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x =\frac{20+38+24+39+27+40+28+37+29+35+30+31+32+19+33+18+34+21+36+23}{20}[/tex]

Solving (b): The standard deviation
This is calculated as;
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x-\bar x)^2}{n}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{928.2}{20}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{46.41}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 6.81[/tex]

The position of the median is calculated as:
[tex]Median = \frac{n+1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{20+1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{21}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = 10.5th[/tex]
The 10.5th item represents the mean of the 10th and 11th item.
So, median is:
[tex]Median = \frac{30+31}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{61}{2}[/tex]

Find a quadratic function that models the height of the rocket, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time t , in seconds after the launch. (HINT: 4.9 meters = 16 feet) Use your model to answer the following questions. Assuming that the rocket will splash down into the ocean, how many seconds after launch does splashdown occur? (round to the nearest tenth of one second) The rocket splashes down after seconds. What is the maximum height above sea-level attained by the rocket? (round to the nearest meter) The maximum height is meters above sea-level.

Answer:
48.0 seconds2833 metersStep-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator shows the points of interest nicely.
The rocket splashes down after 48.0 seconds.
The maximum height is 2833 meters above sea level.
__
The equation for the motion is ...
h(t) = -4.9t^2 +235t +15 . . . . launch at 235 m/s from height of 15 m
The vertex (maximum height) is found at ...
t = -(235)/(2(-4.9)) = 235/9.8 ≈ 23.980 . . . seconds
Then the maximum height is ...
h(23.980) = (-4.9(23.980) +235)(23.980) +15 ≈ 2833 . . . meters
The value of t when h(t) = 0 can be found using the quadratic formula.
t = (-235 -√(235² -4(-4.9)(15)))/(2(-4.9)) = (-235 -√55519)/-9.8
t ≈ 48.023 ≈ 48.0 . . . seconds

water has a density of 1.0 g/cm3 a plastic box has a volume of 78 cm and weighs 80 grams will the box sink or float on water
If possible explain thx!
What we'll do:
A method to find whether an object will float or sink in a liquid is to find it's specific gravity with respect to the liquid, The Specific Gravity tells us the percentage of object's mass which will be submerged in water
Finding the Specific Gravity:
Density of Box:
Density = Mass / Volume
Density = 80 grams / 78 cm³
Density = 1.02 grams/cm³
Specific Gravity of Box with respect to water:
Specific Gravity = Density of Box / Density of Water
we know that density of water is 1 gm/cm³, plugging the values
Specific Gravity = 1.02 / 1
Specific Gravity = 1.02
Hence, 102% of the object will be under water
Q. but I've only heard about 100% of something, how can something be more than 100%?
A. The answer is that the extra 2% over the 100% is providing to the object being even deeper underwater

If r = .15, this indicates
strong negative correlation.
strong positive correlation.
weak negative correlation.
weak positive correlation.
Answer:
Weak Positive Correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
The r value of 0.15 indicates a weak positive correlation value because a weak correlation value is less than 0.3, anything between 0.3 and 0.7 are a moderate correlation, and anything greater than 0.7 would be a string correlation. So, since this is less than 0.3, this is a weak correlation. A positive correlation is a positive value and a negative correlation value is a negative number, so this would be a weak positive correlation value.
A value of r = 0.15 suggests a weak positive correlation, indicating a slight tendency for the variables.
As per the question, the value of r is positive (greater than 0), which suggests a positive correlation between the variables.
However, the value of 0.15 is close to 0 and relatively small, indicating a weak correlation.
This means that there is a weak tendency for the variables to increase or decrease together.
Thus, a value of r = 0.15 suggests a weak positive correlation, indicating a slight tendency for the variables to increase or decrease together, but the relationship is not strong.

An equation is shown: a×b=c. Let c be an irrational number. What can be said about a and b?
Please help
if c is a irrational number that means a or b is also an irrational number or both of them are irrational numbers but they are different then each other
i hope that will help
There are two possible answers:
'a' is irrational and b is rational, OR'a' is rational and b is irrationalYou can only pick one of those two cases. In short, exactly one of the 'a' or b is irrational and the other is rational. Both 'a' and b cannot be rational together, and they both cannot be irrational together.
================================================
Explanation:
For a moment, let's say that 'a' and b are both rational numbers. This means they would be ratios of integers. So,
a = p/q
b = r/s
where p,q,r,s are integers. The denominators q & s cannot be zero.
Multiplying those rational numbers 'a' and b leads to
a*b = (p/q)*(r/s) = (p*r)/(q*s)
We get a result in the form of integer/integer. Recall that multiplying any two integers leads to some other integer. Since (p*r)/(q*s) is a ratio of integers, it is rational and that makes a*b = c to be rational. However, your teacher said that c is irrational which is the opposite of rational.
In short, if both 'a' and b are rational, then a*b = c is rational. This means we know for certain that both 'a' and b cannot be both rational for c to be irrational.
------------------------
Next, we'll consider 'a' and b to both be irrational. Is it possible to have a*b = c to be irrational as well? It depends.
If we have the following
a = sqrt(3)
b = sqrt(12)
then,
a*b = sqrt(3)*sqrt(12) = sqrt(3*12) = sqrt(36) = 6
Showing that a*b is rational because 6 = 6/1 is a ratio of integers. This is a bit strange considering how 'a' and b themselves were irrational, but they led to a rational product.
This doesn't always happen since something like
sqrt(3)*sqrt(5) = sqrt(3*5) = sqrt(15)
is irrational. So if both 'a' and b are irrational together, then a*b could be rational or it could be irrational. We would need more information about the values of 'a' and b.
Therefore, we know that we can rule out the case that 'a' and b are irrational together.
------------------------
Lastly, we'll consider the case when one of 'a' or b is rational while the other is irrational. The order doesn't matter. So we'll make 'a' to be irrational and b to be rational.
Since b is rational, this means b = p/q for some integers p,q where q is nonzero. The value of 'a' cannot be written as a ratio like this because it is irrational.
Multiplying any nonzero rational number with an irrational one always leads to an irrational result. If a*b was rational, then we could say
a*b = r/s
a*(p/q) = r/s
a = (r/s)*(q/p)
a = (r*q)/(s*p)
Showing that 'a' is rational, but this contradicts the fact we made 'a' to be irrational at the top of this section. Therefore, a*b is always irrational if exactly one of 'a' or b is irrational and the other is rational.
In other words, if,
'a' is rational and b is irrational, or'a' is irrational and b is rationalthen a*b = c is irrational
