In a random sample of six cell phones, the mean full retail price was $538.00 and the standard deviation was $184.00. Assume the population is normally distributed and use the t-distribution to find the margin of error and construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean mu. Interpret the results. Identify the margin of error. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Interpret the results. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
Answers
Answer:
The margin of error is 370.8.
The 90% confidence interval for the population mean is between $167.2 and $908.8
The correct interpretation is that we are 90% sure that the true mean price for all cellphones in within the interval end-points, so option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 6 - 1 = 5
90% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0150
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 2.0150*184 = 370.8.
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 538 - 370.8 = $167.2
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 538 + 370.8 = $908.8
The 90% confidence interval for the population mean is between $167.2 and $908.8
The correct interpretation is that we are 90% sure that the true mean price for all cellphones in within the interval end-points, so option B.

Question 14
For the following system of equations, determine how many solutions there are.
6x + y = -1 and -6x - 4y = 4
Answers
Answer:
The system of equations has a one unique solution
Step-by-step explanation:
To quickly determine the number of solutions of a linear system of equations, we need to express each of the equations in slope-intercept form, so we can compare their slopes, and decide:
1) if they intersect at a unique point (when the slopes are different) thus giving a one solution, or
2) if the slopes have the exact same value giving parallel lines (with no intersections, and the y-intercept is different so there is no solution), or
3) if there is an infinite number of solutions (both lines are exactly the same, that is same slope and same y-intercept)
So we write them in slope -intercept form:
First equation:
[tex]6x+y=-1\\y=-6x-1[/tex]
second equation:
[tex]-6x-4y=4\\-6x=4y+4\\-6x-4=4y\\y=-\frac{3}{2} x-1[/tex]
So we see that their slopes are different (for the first one slope = -6, and for the second one slope= -3/2) and then the lines must intercept in a one unique point. Therefore the system of equations has a one unique solution.

[Give your answer in degrees, rounded to the nearest hundredth.) Expert Answer
Answers
Answer:
The slope of this curve where it meets the right pole is 1.130
The angle between the line and the right pole is 41.51 °
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that ;
[tex]y = 30 \ cos h (\dfrac{x}{15} - 4)[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{30}{15} sinh(\dfrac{x}{15})[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2 \ sinh(\dfrac{x}{15})[/tex]
x = 9 m;( i.e half of the distance of the two poles at 18 meters apart.
[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2 \ sinh(\dfrac{9}{15})[/tex]
= 1.130
The slope of this curve where it meets the right pole is 1.130
The angle between the line an the right rope can be determined by using the tangent of the slope .
tan ∝ = 1.130
∝ = tan⁻¹ (1.130)
∝ = 48.49°
The angle is θ; so
θ = 90 - ∝
θ = 90 - 48.49°
θ = 41.51 °
Thus; the angle between the line and the right pole is 41.51 °

Of those customers using mid-grade gas, 60% fill their tanks, whereas of those using premium, 50% fill their tanks. If the next customer fills the tank, what is the probability that he uses premium gas
Answers
Answer:
The probability is 0.2326 or 23.26%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that a random customer fills their tank with premium gas is:
[tex]P( prem\ \&\ fill) = 0.2*0.5=0.10[/tex]
The probability that a random customer fills their tank is given by:
[tex]P(fill)=P( reg\ \&\ fill)+P( mid\ \&\ fill)+P( prem\ \&\ fill)\\P(fill) = 0.5*0.3+0.3*0.6+0.2*0.5\\P(fill) = 0.43[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that a customer used premium gas given that hey have filled their tank is:
[tex]P(prem| fill) = \frac{P( prem\ \&\ fill) }{P(fill)} \\P(prem| fill) =\frac{0.10}{0.43}=0.2326[/tex]
The probability is 0.2326 or 23.26%.
A door wedge is 5 cm tall. Its has 3.7 cm high triangular bases with 2 congruent 5 cm sides and a 4 cm side. What is its surface area?
Answers
Answer:
Surface Area = 84.8 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
This wedge is simply a triangular prism.
We are given;
Height of door wedge; H = 5 cm
Height of triangular base;h = 3.7 cm
Congruent sides; S2 = S3 = 5cm
base of triangular side;b = S1 = 4 cm
Now, formula for surface area of triangular prism is;
SA = bh + (s1 + s2 + s3)H
Thus, plugging in the relevant values, we have;
SA = (4 x 3.7) + (4 + 5 + 5)5
SA = 14.8 + 70
SA = 84.8 cm²

Find w and y, will give brainliest for the correct answer
Answers
Answer: w=12, y=6√3
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the figure, we can split the triangle into 2 separate triangles. One on the left and one on the left. The triangle on the right is a 30-60-90 triangle. For this triangle, the hypotenuse is 2x in length. This is directly opposite of the right angle. The leg opposite to 30° is x in length. The leg opposite 60° is x√3 in length. Once you know the length of one side, you can plug in x to find the length of the other legs.
In this case, w and y are located on the same 30-60-90 triangle. Normally we would focus on that triangle to find our values, but in this instance, we don't have any values. We have to use the left triangle to find the leg that both triangles share.
The left triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle. For this triangle, the legs opposite of 45° is x in length. The hypotenuse is x√2. Since we know the hypotenuse, we can use it to find x.
x√2=8
x=8/√2
x=5.7 or 6 [Let's use 6 so that it is easier to work with a whole number]
Now that we know x, we can find w and y. Going back to the right triangle, we know the hypotenuse is 2x. We plug in 6 to find the length.
w=2x
w=2(6)
w=12
We know the leg opposite of 60° is x√3. We can plug in x.
y=6√3

A science club has 16 members. How many ways can a president, a Vice President, and a treasurer be selected from the members?
Answers
Answer:
3,360
Step-by-step explanation:
We calculate the number of permutations for this problem where the order in which we accommodate people matters to us as follows:
[tex]P=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]
where n is the total number of options we have; the total number of members: [tex]n=16[/tex]
and r is the number of places or positions we are considering which in this case are the President position, the Vice president position and the treasurer position ⇒ 3 positions in total ⇒ [tex]r=3[/tex]
substituting n and r in the formula:
[tex]P=\frac{16!}{(16-3)!} \\\\P=\frac{16!}{13!} \\\\P=3,360[/tex]
A president, a Vice President, and a treasurer can be selected from the members in 3,360 ways

Answer:
An acute angle is open
Step-by-step explanation:
An acute angle is an angle that is less than [tex]90^{0}[/tex]. Two or more acute angles are set to be complementary if their sum equals a right angle.
Clara's diagram involves two acute angles JLK and KLM with both sharing the side LK.
If the acute angles are complementary angles, then JLM would be a right angle.
If the acute angles are not complementary angles, then JLM would be less than a right angle.
So the appropriate choice to select is an acute angle is open. Which implies that JLM may be a right angle or not depending on the degrees of the acute angles involved.

Answer:
C. 4 ≤ f(x) ≤ 19 . . . . . . best of bad answer choices

When looking for the range of a function on an interval, one must check the function values at the ends of the interval, along with any local maxima or minima.
Here, the function values at the interval ends are ...
f(0) = 4
f(3) = 2·3² -3 +4 = 19
The axis of symmetry is located at ...
x = -b/(2a) = -(-1)/(2(2)) = 1/4
This is a value in the interval, so will be the location of the minimum value of the function.
f(1/4) = 2(1/4)² -1/4 +4 = 3.875
The range of f(x) on the interval [0, 3] is [3.875, 19]:
