. A random sample of 100 children with working mothers showed that they were absent from school an average of 6 days per term with a standard deviation of 1.6 days. Provide a 98% confidence interval for the average number of days absent per term for all the children. a. Write down the equation you should use to construct the confidence interval for the average number of days absent per term for all the children. (10 points) b. Determine a 98% confidence interval estimate for the average number of days absent per term for all the children. (10 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The equation is:

Confidence Interval = Mean ± Z score × Standard deviation/√Number of samples

b) The 98% confidence interval = (5.62784, 6.37216)

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Write down the equation you should use to construct the confidence interval for the average number of days absent per term for all the children. (10 points)

Confidence Interval = Mean ± Z score × Standard deviation/√Number of samples

b. Determine a 98% confidence interval estimate for the average number of days absent per term for all the children. (10 points)

Confidence Interval = Mean ± Z score × Standard deviation/√Number of samples

Mean = 6 days

Standard deviation = 1.6 days

Number of samples = 100

Z score of 98% confidence interval = 2.326

Confidence interval = 6 ± 2.326 × 1.6/√100

= 6 ± 2.326 × 1.6/10

= 6 ± 0.37216

= 6 - 0.37216

= 5.62784

6 + 0.37216

= 6.37216

Therefore, the 98% confidence interval = (5.62784, 6.37216)

Triangle ABC has coordinates
A (1,4);B(3,−2); and C(4,2).
Find the coordinates of the image
A'B'C' after a reflection over the x-axis.

Answers

Given:

Vertices of triangle ABC are A (1,4), B(3,−2) and C(4,2).

Triangle ABC reflected over the x-axis to get the triangle A'B'C'.

To find:

The coordinates of the image A'B'C'.

Solution:

If a figure reflected over the x-axis, then rule of transformation is

[tex](x,y)\to (x,-y)[/tex]

Now, using this rule, we get

[tex]A(1,4)\to A'(1,-4)[/tex]

[tex]B(3,-2)\to B'(3,2)[/tex]

[tex]C(4,2)\to C'(4,-2)[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of the image  A'B'C' after a reflection over the x-axis are A'(1,-4), B'(3,2) and C'(4,-2).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of a triangle are represented in the form of a matrix as,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x_1 & x_2 & x_3\\ y_1 & y_2 & y_3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

If the given triangle is shifted by 1 unit left and 4 units down,

Translation of vertices in the matrix form will be,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x_1 & x_2 & x_3\\ y_1 & y_2 & y_3\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}-1 & -1 & -1\\ -4 & -4 & -4\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

For a triangle having vertices (7, -7), (-9, -3) and (-1, -7) when shifted 1 units left and 4 units down will be,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}7 & -9 & -1\\ -7 & -3 & -7\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}-1 & -1 & -1\\ -4 & -4 & -4\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

= [tex]\begin{bmatrix}7-1 & -9-1 & -1-1\\ -7-4 & -3-4 & -7-4\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

= [tex]\begin{bmatrix}6 & -10 & -2\\ -11 & -7 & -11\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

please help me with the domain and range of the graphs.?part 5​

Answers

Problem 5

Domain = [tex]-4 \le x \le 3[/tex]

This is because the smallest x value allowed is x = -4 as shown by the left-most point. The right most point has x coordinate x = 3, so this is the largest value in the domain.

The domain in interval notation is [-4, 3]. The square brackets include the endpoint.

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

Range = [tex]-4 \le y \le 5[/tex]

We're now looking at the possible y values. The lowest point happens when y = -4 and the highest point is when y = 5. We can have any y value between those endpoints.

The range in interval notation is [-4, 5]

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

Problem 6

Domain = [tex]-2 \le x < 2[/tex]

Same idea as the previous problem. This time the left most point has x = -2 and the right most point has x coordinate x = 2.

The big difference here is that the open hole says to not include the endpoint. The domain in interval notation is [-2, 2) where we use a parenthesis to not include the endpoint.

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

Range = [tex]-4 \le y < 4[/tex]

The smallest possible y value is y = -4. The ceiling for the y values is y = 4, but we can't actually reach this value due to the open hole.

The range in interval notation is [-4, 4)

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

Problem 7

Domain = [tex]-4 < x \le 2[/tex]

Same idea as earlier. Now the open hole is at the left endpoint. The right most point occurs not at an endpoint this time.

The domain in interval notation is (-4, 2]

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

Range: [tex]-4 < y < 4[/tex]

Both endpoints are open holes, so we exclude both endpoints.

The range in interval notation is (-4, 4). Unfortunately in this case, interval notation looks identical to ordered pair notation.

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

Problem 8

Domain = [tex]-5 < x < 3[/tex]

Domain in interval notation = (-5, 3)

The graph is too blurry to be able to determine the range.

Question in the picture

Answers

Answer:

Average rate of change =250

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to determine average rate of change of the function,

Average rate of change = [tex]\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Where [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]x_2[/tex] are the points representing number of years after year 2000.

Since [tex]x_1[/tex] = 5 and [tex]x_2=19[/tex],

[tex]f(x_2)=650[/tex]

And [tex]f(x_1)=300[/tex]

Now average rate of change = [tex]\frac{650-300}{19-5}[/tex]

                                                = [tex]\frac{350}{14}[/tex]

                                                = 250

Therefore, average rate of change of the number of influenza cases from 2005 to 2019 is 250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Now, let's look into figure.

angle ACB = 65° { Base angle of triangle ABC}

angle ACB + angle BAC + angle ABC = 180°

65° + 65° + angle ABC = 180°

angle ABC = 180°-130°

Therefore, angle 50°

angle EBD = 50° ( Vertically opposite angle)

Now;

angle EBD= angle DEB = 50° ( Base angle of triangle BDE )

angle BDE + angle DEB + angle EBD = 180° ( Sum of interior angle)

angle BDE = 180° -100°

Therefore, angle BDE = 80°.

Now, 80° + 14x + 2 = 180° { being linear pair}

14x = 180°-82°

14x = 98°

[tex]x = \frac{98}{14} [/tex]

X = 7°

The management of Hartman Rent-A-Car has allocated $2.52 million to buy a fleet of new automobiles consisting of compact, intermediate-size, and full-size cars. Compacts cost $18,000 each, intermediate-size cars cost $27,000 each, and full-size cars cost $36,000 each. If Hartman purchases twice as many compacts as intermediate-size cars and the total number of cars to be purchased is 100, determine how many cars of each type will be purchased. (Assume that the entire budget will be used. Let x, y, and z denote the number of compact, intermediate-sized, and full-size cars purchased, respectively.)

Answers

Answer:

The number of compact cars = x = 30 cars

The number of intermediate-sized car = y = 60 cars

The number of full-size cars purchased = z = 10 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote:

the number of compact car = x

the number of intermediate-sized car = y

the number of full-size cars purchased = z

The total number of cars to be purchased is 100.

Hence:

x + y + z = 100...........Equation 1

If Hartman purchases twice as many compacts as intermediate-size cars

y = 2x

So: x + 2x + z = 100..........Equation 2

= 3x + z = 100

z = 100 - 3x

Compacts cost $18,000 each, Intermediate-size cars cost $27,000

Full-size cars cost $36,000 each.

Assume that the entire budget will be used.

Hence,

x × $18,000 + y × $27,000 + z × $36,000 = $2,520,000.

18000x + 27000y + 36,000z = $2,520,000.....Equation 4

Substitute 100 - 3x for z and y = 2x in Equation 4

18000x + 27000(2x) + 36,000(100 - 3x) = $2520000

18000x + 54000x + 3,600,000 -108000x = $2520000

72000x -108000x + 3,600,000 = $2,520,000

= $3,600,000 - $2,520,000 = 108000x - 72,000x

$1,080,000 = 36,000x

Divide both sides by $36,000

x = $1080000/36000

x = 30

From the above:

y = 2x

y = 2 × 30

= 60

z = 100 - 3x

= 100 - 3 × 30

= 100 - 90

= 10

Therefore,

The number of compact cars = x = 30 cars

The number of intermediate-sized car = y = 60 cars

The number of full-size cars purchased = z = 10 cars
