34 packages are randomly selected from packages received by a parcel service. The sample has a mean weight of 25.9 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.8 pounds. What is the 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight, μ, of all packages received by the parcel service?24.6 < μ < 27.2

24.8 < μ < 27.0

24.2 < μ < 27.6

24.4 < μ < 27.4

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight, μ, of all packages received by the parcel service is;

Option A; 24.6 < μ < 27.2

We are given;

Sample mean; x' = 25.9 pounds

Standard deviation; σ = 3.8 pounds

Confidence level; CL = 95%

Sample size; n = 34

Now formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x' ± z( σ/√n)

Where z is critical value at given confidence level.

z at CL of 95% is; z = 1.96

Thus;

CI = 25.9 ± 1.96(3.8/√34)

CI = 25.9 ± 1.3

CI = (25.9 - 1.3), (25.9 + 1.3)

CI = (24.6, 27.2)

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

24.6 < μ < 27.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = (1-0.95)/(2) = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*(\sigma)/(√(n))

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96(3.8)/(√(34)) = 1.3

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 25.9 - 1.3 = 24.6 pounds.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 25.9 + 1.3 = 27.2 pounds.

So the correct answer is:

24.6 < μ < 27.2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = -11
3x + 6y = 3

Answers

Well there are two ways to solve this.
First is by substitutingwe would need to free one of the variable to solve it. It can be one or the other it would result in both ways.

5x - 6y = -113x + 6y = 3

3x + 6y = 3
x=(-6y+3)/3
x= -2y+1

Now we use this and put it in the other of the equations
5(-2y+1) - 6y = -11-10y+5-6y=-11
-16y=-11-5
-16y=-16
y=-16/-16
y=1
Now we use this to find x.
x=-2y+1
x=-2(1)+1
x= -2+1
x=-1
Now that we now our variables we have to check if the are correct.
5x - 6y = -115(-1)-6(1)= -11
-5-6=-11
-11=-11
3x + 6y = 3
3(-1)+6(1)= 3
-3+6=3
3=3

So yeah x=-1 and y= 1
That's a way to solve it there is another way that is by eliminating.
so i this we have to delete a variable in both equations. In thi scase we can take y becuase if we sum the bothe quation 6y and-6y get eliminated.
5x - 6y = -113x + 6y = 3 
8x= -8
x= -8/8
x=-1
Now we use this to find the other variable
5(-1) - 6y = -11-5-6y=-11
-6y= -11+5
-6y=-6
y=-6/-6
y= 1
So now we 
have to check if the are correct.
5x - 6y = -115(-1)-6(1)= -11
-5-6=-11
-11=-11

3x + 6y = 3
3(-1)+6(1)= 3
-3+6=3
3=3

That's that
X= -1
Y= 1

Hope it helped
5x - 6y = -11
3x + 6y = 3

Rearrange the 2nd equation:

3x + 6y = 3

Subtract 6y to both sides:

3x = -6y + 3

Divide 3 to both sides:

x = -2y + 1

Plug in 2y + 1 for 'x' in the 1st equation:

5x - 6y = -11

5(-2y + 1) - 6y = -11

Distribute 5:

-10y + 5 - 6y = -11

Combine like terms:

-16y + 5 = -11

Subtract 5 to both sides:

-16y = -16

Divide -16 to both sides:

y = 1

Plug this into any of the two equations to find 'x':

3x + 6y = 3

3x + 6(1) = 3

3x + 6 = 3

Subtract 6 to both sides:

3x = -3

Divide 3 to both sides:

x = -1

So our solution is:

(-1, 1)

What is 2x+3=5 using algebraic methods ​

Answers

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 3 from both sides. Then divide both sides by two and you will get x=1.

Here is how it goes:

  1. 2x+3=5
  2. 2x=2
  3. x=1
X=1 that’s the answer to your question all I did was subtract 3 on both sides and that leaves me with 2x=2 and then divide 2 on both sides and then X=1

What percent of 55 is 34?

Answers

61.8%
 34 is what percent of 55 
= 34 / 55 
= 0.61818

Converting decimal to a percentage: 
0.61818 * 100 = 61.8%

The answer is about 62%. 34/55=.618181818 so you would move the decimal over 2 places to make it a percent and round.

Is 102 divisible by 4 5 6 9 or 10 PLEASE HELP I AM FAILING AND ABOUT TO CRY!!!!

Answers

It can't be divided by 5 or 10 since when you count by 10's the numbers end in only zeros and when you count by 5 it is either 5 or 0  (5, 10, 15, 20 and so on).

9 will only work if the digits in the answer add up to 9.  18: 1+8=9
99: 9+9=18 and 1+8=9  So it can't be divided by 9  102: 1+0+2=3 (not 9)

That leaves 6 and six works - here's why.
There is a rule for 3's that says that the sum of the digit must add up to 3, 6 or 9.
Look:
3x1 = 3
3 x 2 = 6
3 x 3 = 9
3 x 4 = 12 and 1+2=3
3 x 5 = 15 and 1+ 5 = 6
3 x 6 = 18 and 1+ 8 = 9  
3 x 7 = 21  and 2 +1 = 3  and so on -  do you see the 3,6,9 pattern repeating.

Six follows the same rule except the number must be even.  Look above to see that 6 works with 6, 12 and 18 but not the others.  
So 102 is divisible by 3  (1+0+2 = 3)  AND it is an even number - therefore it is divisible by 6.  Here's proof: 6 x 15 = 90 and 102 is 12 more than 90 and six goes into that 12)

I hope that this will help you feel better. I don't want you to cry. :-)
