Suppose that the middle 95% of average scores in the NBA per player per game fall between 8.18 and 31.34. Give an approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored. Assume the points scored has a normal distribution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

An approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored per game is of 5.79.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Suppose that the middle 95% of average scores in the NBA per player per game fall between 8.18 and 31.34.

This means that there is 4 standard deviations within this interval. So

[tex]4s = 31.34 - 8.18[/tex]

[tex]4s = 23.16[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{23.16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]s = 5.79[/tex]

An approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored per game is of 5.79.

Is f(x) – g(x) equivalent to m(x)? yes

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

[tex]m(x) = f(x) - g(x)[/tex] --- True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = -3x + 5[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = -5x - 7[/tex]

[tex]m(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

Solving (a): [tex]f(x) - g(x)[/tex]

From the given parameters, we have:

[tex]f(x) = -3x + 5[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = -5x - 7[/tex]

So:

[tex]f(x) - g(x)=-3x+5 + 5x + 7[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

Solving (b) m(x) = f(x) = g(x)?

In (a), we have:

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

And

[tex]m(x) = 2x + 12[/tex] --- given

By comparison:

[tex]m(x) = f(x) - g(x)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

P( fraction) = 1/2

P ( percent) = 50%

P ( decimal) = .5

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible outcomes on  a six sided cube are 1,2,3,4,5,6

Multiples of 2 are  2,4,6

P( multiple of 2) = number of multiples of 2 / total outcomes

There are more compact cars (4*10 = 40) compared to trucks (2*10 = 20); however, the pictogram might make it appear that there are more trucks because the individual truck icon is larger compared to an individual compact car icon.

To anyone giving this image a quick glance, they may erroneously conclude that there are more trucks since their eye would notice the trucks first. Also, the person might think there are more trucks because bigger sizes tend to correspond to more proportion.

In real life, a truck is larger than a compact car, but the icons need to be the same size to have the figure not be misleading.

A very similar issue happens with the mid-size cars vs the compact cars as well. The three mid-size car icons span the same total width as the compact cars do, indicating that a reader might mistakenly conclude that there are the same number of mid-size cars compared to compact ones (when that's not true either).

For the function, tell whether the graph opens up or opens down, identify the vertex, and tell whether the graph is wider, narrower, or the same width as the graph of y = |x|.

y = 2|x – 1| - 3



opens up, (1, 3), wider

opens up, (1, 3), narrower

opens up, (-1, -3), wider

opens up, (1, -3), narrower

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D, the last one.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (d)  opens up, (1, -3), narrower

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor of +2 multiplying the function tells you the graph is expanded vertically by a factor of 2. The parent function opens upward, and the positive sign on this expansion factor does not change that. The expansion means that y-values will be farther from the vertex for the same x-value distance from the vertex. This give the appearance of a narrower graph.

As always, the transformation ...

  f(x -h) +k

moves the vertex from (0, 0) to (h, k). Here, you have (h, k) = (1, -3), so that is the location of the vertex of the transformed function.

A courier service company wishes to estimate the proportion of people in various states that will use its services. Suppose the true proportion is 0.06. If 235 are sampled, what is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

Answers

Answer:

0.0098 = 0.98% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

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 establishes 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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Suppose the true proportion is 0.06.

This means that [tex]p = 0.06[/tex]

235 are sampled

This means that [tex]n = 235[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.06[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.06*0.94}{235}} = 0.0155[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04?

Proportion below 0.06 - 0.04 = 0.02 or above 0.06 + 0.04 = 0.1. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, which means that we can find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is below 0.02.

p-value of Z when X = 0.02. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.02 - 0.06}{0.0155}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0049.

2*0.0049 = 0.0098

0.0098 = 0.98% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

Then put it into point-slope form.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

=y-5=7/9(x-4)

Simplify.

y=7/9x-28/9+5

y=7/9x+17/9

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope (change in y/ change in x) which is positive 7/9.

Then use y=mx+b and plug in the slope, and one of the given points to solve for b.

5= 7/9*4+b

5=28/9+b

5-28/9=b

45/9-28/9=b

17/9=b

Then with the slope and y intercept(b) you get the equation shown in answer c.

PLEASE HELP NEED ANSWER ASAPPPP!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO FIRST CORRECT ANSWERRRR!!!

Answers

Answer:

Remember that the division by zero is not defined, this is the criteria that we will use in this case.

1) [tex]\frac{y^2 - 1}{y} + \frac{y}{y - 3}[/tex]

So the fractions are defined such that the denominator is never zero.

For the first fraction, the denominator is zero when y = 0

and for the second fraction, the denominator is zero when y = 3

Then the fractions exist for all real values except for y = 0 or y = 3

we can write this as:

R / {0} U { 3}

(the set of all real numbers except the elements 0 and 3)

2) [tex]\frac{b + 4}{b^2 + 7}[/tex]

Let's see the values of b such that the denominator is zero:

b^2 + 7 = 0

b^2 = -7

b = √-7

This is a complex value, assuming that b can only be a real number, there is no value of b such that the denominator is zero, then the fraction is defined for every real number.

The allowed values are R, the set of all real numbers.

3) [tex]\frac{a}{a*(a - 1) - 1}[/tex]

Again, we need to find the value of a such that the denominator is zero.

a*(a - 1) - 1 = a^2 - a - 1

So we need to solve:

a^2 - a - 1 = 0

We can use the Bhaskara's formula, the two values of a are given by:

[tex]a = \frac{-(-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 + 4*1*(-1)} }{2*1} = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{5} }{2}[/tex]

Then the two values of a that are not allowed are:

a = (1 + √5)/2

a = (1 - √5)/2

Then the allowed values of a are:

R / {(1 + √5)/2} U {(1 - √5)/2}
