A nutritionist wants to estimate the average caloric content of the burritos at a popular restaurant. They obtain a random sample of 16 burritos and measure their caloric content. The sample mean and sample standard deviation of measured caloric contents of the 16 burritos are 700 calories and 50 calories, respectively. Suppose the caloric content of burritos is normally distributed. Based on the sample, which of the following is a 95% upper confidence bound for the mean caloric content of these burritos?
A. μ≤700+ t 0.05, 15x50/4
B. μ≤700+ t 0.025, 16x50/4
C. μ≤700+ t 0.025, 15x50/4
D. μ≤700+ z 0.05 x50/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\mu \leq 700 + t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{50}{4}[/tex], option c

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

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 = 16 - 1 = 15

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and an [tex]\alpha[/tex] level of [tex]\frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex], thus, we have [tex]t_{(0.025,15)}[/tex]

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample. For this question, we have [tex]s = 50,n = 16[/tex]. So

[tex]M = t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{50}{\sqrt{16}}[/tex]

[tex]M = t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{50}{4}[/tex]

Upper bound:

The upper bound is less than the sample mean of 700 added to the margin of error of M. Thus

[tex]\mu \leq 700 + t_{(0.025,15)}\frac{50}{4}[/tex]

And the correct answer is given by option c.

The quadratic regression equation for the data set is:

   A. y = 0.056x²+1.278x-0.886

What is equation?

An equation is a  mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.  In its simplest form in algebra, the definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal. For instance, 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation, in which 3x + 5 and 14 are two expressions separated by an 'equal' sign.

here, we have,

We are given a set of data value as:

        x                y

        3             3.45

        5              6.9

        6             8.79  

        8             12.91

        10            17.48

        12            22.49

        15            30.85

On plotting these points on a scatter plot we see that the line that best fits these data points is a parabola i.e. the equation is a equation of a quadratic function.

The equation of the line of best fit is:

y = 0.056x²+1.278x-0.886

Answers

Answer:4.077669903

Step-by-step explanation:

4×103 is 4.04 times the 16*105.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with symbols or variables and uses arithmetic operations (+, –, ×, ÷) to find the unknown quantities represented by these variables.

Let us consider the number be 'x'.

So, 4*103 of x = 16*105

      x= 16*105/4*103

       x= 4*1.01

       x= 4.04

Hence, the number is 4.04.

What is the triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Carl wants to prove that if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle, then it divides the other two sides proportionally.

We know that if two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the corresponding sides will remain constant.

Let the triangle UVW and XY is parallel to the side VW.

Then the triangle UVW and UXY will be similar triangle.

Then the ratio of their corresponding sides will be

UX / XV = UY / YW

In UVW, if XY || VW then UX/XV= UY/ YW.

Then the correct option is A.

If the length of a rectangle is 1 cm more than three times the width and if the perimeter of the rectangle is 34 cm what is the dimension of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

width: 4cm

length: 13cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be w. From the problem, we can infer that the length would be equal to 3w + 1. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

P = 2(l + w)

where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width.

We can substitute our values into the equation:

34 = 2(3w + 1 + w)

17 = 3w + 1 + w

17 = 4w + 1

16 = 4w

w = 4

We can substitute this into the length:

3w + 1

3(4) + 1

If you agree to play the game, what is your expected gain or loss (in dollars) per game? (Recall that there are 12 face cards in a standard 52-card deck. Round your answer to two decimal places.) $

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard 52-card deck, we have that:

There are 12 face cards.

What is your expected gain or loss (in dollars) per game?

12/52 probability of winning $2.

1 - 12/52 = 52/52 - 12/52 = 40/52 probability of losing $1. So

[tex]E = \frac{12}{52}*2 - \frac{40}{52}*1 = \frac{24 - 40}{52} = -\frac{16}{52} = -0.31[/tex]

Negative, so a loss is expected.

Your expected loss per game is of $0.31.

Answers

Answer: x = 10;

Both the angles are congruent, therefore;

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> Now subtract 6x from each side of "="

2x - 12 = 8

=> Add 12 to each side;

2x = 20

=> Lastly divide each side by 2;

x = 10

Hope this helps!

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image provided, it shows that both 8x - 12 would equal 6x + 8 because their angles are the same due to their placement. With that it turns into 8x - 12 = 6x + 8. Then you can simplify to 2x = 20 by adding 12 to both sides, and subtracting 6x. Then 20 divided by 2 to get x by itself equaling 10.
