A marine biologist wants to estimate the average weight of a population of dolphins living in a certain region of the ocean. The biologist will collect a random sample of dolphins and use the sample weights to create the estimate Which of the following is an appropriate method for the biologist to use for inference to the population?
A A one-sample t-interval for a population mean
B A one-sample t-interval for a sample mean
C A one-sample 2-interval for a population proportion
D A matched-pairs t-interval for a mean difference
E A two-sample t-interval for a difference between means

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A A one-sample t-interval for a population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

The biologist will collect a random sample of dolphins and use the sample weights to create the estimate.

In a confidence interval, we take the data from the sample and want to estimate it for the entire population, so the interval is for a population mean.

The standard deviation will be taken from the sample, which means that the t-interval is used.

We want for one population, so it is a one sample for the population mean, and the correct answer is given by option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer claims that its car has a 57.7 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this car since it is believed that the car has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 210 cars, they found a mean MPG of 57.4. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 1.9. A level of significance of 0.1 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The value of test statistic

   |Z| = |-2.2883| = 2.2883

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the mean of the Population = 57.7miles/gallon

The standard deviation of the Population = 1.9

The mean of sample x⁻ = 57.4

Given that the sample size 'n' =210

level of significance = 0.1

Step(ii):-

Test statistic

        [tex]Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

       [tex]Z = \frac{57.4-57.7}{\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{210} } }[/tex]

      Z = -2.2883

  |Z| = |-2.2883| = 2.2883

Final answer:-

The value of test statistic

   |Z|  = 2.2883

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (-2,8) and (8,- 7). Write the equation in
slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y=mx+b\\ \\ m=\frac{-7-8}{8-\ -2}=\frac{-15}{10}=\ -\frac{3}{2}\\ \\ y=\ -\frac{3x}{2}+b,\ (-2,8)\\ \\ 8=\ -\frac{3(-2)}{2}+b\\ \\ 8=3+b,\ b=5\\ \\ y=\frac{10-3x}{2}[/tex]

Answer:   y  = - 3/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in slope intercept form, you will have to find the slope and the y-intercept.

(-2,8) (8,-7)  

To find the slope using these points, you will find the difference in the y coordinates and divide it by the difference in the x coordinates.

-7 - 8 = - 15

8 - (-2) = 10

   Slope:   -15/10   =  -3/2  

The slope is  -3/2

Now using the formula y=mx+b  , use one of the given points and the slope to solve for b , which is the y-intercept.

     8  = -3/2(-2) + b

    8 = 3 + b

   -3     -3

    b = 5

Find the value of x for which L parallel m (3x-33) (2x+26)

Answers

Answer:

59

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram, we can see that both given angles are vertically opposite angles, hence they are equal

3x - 33 = 2x+26

3x-2x = 26 + 33

x = 59

Hence the value of x is 59

Which of the following represents an equation of a line parallel to one whose equation is 2x + 8x = 18

Answers

Answer:

y=-4x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

it does not show the equations that are following

but the main thing you need to know is that when two lines are parallel they have the same slope

and do you mean 2x+8y=18 not x?

edit:

answer choices: y=-4x+3, y=8x-2, y=4x+7, y=-8x+9

2y+8x=18

first change that equation to slope intercept form to find the slope

2y = -8x+18 -> y = -4x+9

slope is -4

so the answer is y=-4x+3 because it also has a slope of -4

Answers

Answer:

y = -x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation representing the table attached is,

y = mx + b

Here, m = Slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Since, slope of a line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,

m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

From the table attached,

Slope of the line passing through (23, -23) and (33, -33),

m = [tex]\frac{-33+23}{33-23}[/tex]

m = -1

Equation of the line will be,

y = -x + b

Since, this line passes through another point (43, -43),

-43 = -43 + b

b = 0

Therefore, equation of the line representing the table will be,

y = -x

Find the average rate of change

Answers

Replace x with 1 nd solve, then replace x with 3 and solve:

x^3 - 2x^2 +3x

When x = 1:  1^3 -2(1)^2 +3(1) = 3 -3 +3 = 3

When x = 3: 3^3 -2(3)^2 + 3(3) = 27 -18 +9 = 18

The difference between the two solutions is 18-3 = 15

The difference between the two x values = 3-1 = 2

The rate of change is 15/2  or 7.5 as a decimal.

Assume that the temperature at each point is theaverageof the temperatures at the four neighboring points(left, right, above, and below).Set up (do not solve)a system of four linear equations whose solution gives the four temperature T1,T2,T3, andT4. (Your linear equations should all be written instandard form, meaning a linear combination ofthe variables set equal to a constant.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4T1 - T3 - T2= 45[/tex]

[tex]4T2- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

[tex]4T3- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

[tex]4T4 - T2 - T3= 105[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}{ } & {30} & {30} & { } & {15} & {T1} &{T2} & {45} & {15} & {T3} & {T4} & {45} & {} & {60} & {60} & {} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Required

Set up 4 linear equations to solve for T1,T2,T3, andT4

From the question, we understand that each temperature is the average of the 4 surrounding temperatures.

So, we have:

For T1, the surrounding temperatures are: 30, 15, T3 and T2.

The average is:

[tex]T1 = \frac{1}{4}(30 + 15 + T3 + T2)[/tex]

[tex]T1 = \frac{1}{4}(45 + T3 + T2)[/tex]

Multiply through by 4

[tex]4T1 = 45 + T3 + T2[/tex]

Equate variables to constant

[tex]4T1 - T3 - T2= 45[/tex]

For T2, the surrounding temperatures are: T1, T4, 45 and 30.

The average is:

[tex]T2 = \frac{1}{4}(T1 + T4 + 45 + 30)[/tex]

[tex]T2 = \frac{1}{4}(T1 + T4 + 75)[/tex]

Multiply through by 4

[tex]4T2 = T1 + T4 + 75[/tex]

Equate variables to constant

[tex]4T2- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

For T3, the surrounding temperatures are: 60, 15, T1 and T4

The average is:

[tex]T3 = \frac{1}{4}(60 + 15 + T1 + T4)[/tex]

[tex]T3 = \frac{1}{4}(75 + T1 + T4)[/tex]

Multiply through by 4

[tex]4T3 = 75 + T1 + T4[/tex]

Equate variables to constant

[tex]4T3- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

For T4, the surrounding temperatures are: 60, 45, T2 and T3

The average is:

[tex]T4 = \frac{1}{4}(60 + 45 + T2 + T3)[/tex]

[tex]T4 = \frac{1}{4}(105 + T2 + T3)[/tex]

Multiply through by 4

[tex]4T4 = 105 + T2 + T3[/tex]

Equate variables to constant

[tex]4T4 - T2 - T3= 105[/tex]

So, the equations are:

[tex]4T1 - T3 - T2= 45[/tex]

[tex]4T2- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

[tex]4T3- T1 - T4 = 75[/tex]

[tex]4T4 - T2 - T3= 105[/tex]
