A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among males over age 43. A sample of 1384 males over age 43 was drawn and the mean meat consumption was 3 pounds. Assume that the population standard deviation is known to be 1.3 pounds. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43. Round your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 2.575\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{1384}} = 0.1[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 3 - 0.1 = 2.9 pounds
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 3 + 0.01 = 3.1 pounds
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.
find the centre and radius of the following Cycles 9 x square + 9 y square +27 x + 12 y + 19 equals 0
Answer:
Radius: [tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}[/tex]
[tex]Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0[/tex]
Solving (a): The radius of the circle
First, we express the equation as:
[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]
Where
[tex]r = radius[/tex]
[tex](h,k) =center[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0[/tex]
Divide through by 9
[tex]x^2 + y^2 + 3x + \frac{12}{9}y + \frac{19}{9} = 0[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]x^2 + 3x + y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]
Group the expression into 2
[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]
[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]
Next, we complete the square on each group.
For [tex][x^2 + 3x][/tex]
1: Divide the [tex]coefficient\ of\ x\ by\ 2[/tex]
2: Take the [tex]square\ of\ the\ division[/tex]
3: Add this [tex]square\ to\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation.[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]
[tex][x^2 + 3x + (\frac{3}{2})^2] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2[/tex]
Factorize
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2[/tex]
Apply the same to y
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y +(\frac{4}{6})^2 ] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2[/tex]
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2[/tex]
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ \frac{9}{4} +\frac{16}{36}[/tex]
Add the fractions
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{-19 * 4 + 9 * 9 + 16 * 1}{36}[/tex]
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{21}{36}[/tex]
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
Recall that:
[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]
By comparison:
[tex]r^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
Take square roots of both sides
[tex]r =\sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}[/tex]
Split
[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt 7}{\sqrt 12}[/tex]
Rationalize
[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt 7*\sqrt 12}{\sqrt 12*\sqrt 12}[/tex]
[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {84}}{12}[/tex]
[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {4*21}}{12}[/tex]
[tex]r =\frac{2\sqrt {21}}{12}[/tex]
[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}[/tex]
Solving (b): The center
Recall that:
[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]
Where
[tex]r = radius[/tex]
[tex](h,k) =center[/tex]
From:
[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
[tex]-h = \frac{3}{2}[/tex] and [tex]-k = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Solve for h and k
[tex]h = -\frac{3}{2}[/tex] and [tex]k = -\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the center is:
[tex]Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})[/tex]

This is analytic geometry
Answer:
The coordinates of point B are (-3,-3).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]A(x,y) = (6,-6)[/tex], [tex]C(x,y) = (-6,-2)[/tex] and [tex]\overrightarrow{AB} = \frac{3}{4}\cdot \overrightarrow{AC}[/tex], then we have the following formula by vectorial definition of a line segment:
[tex]\overrightarrow{AB} = \frac{3}{4}\cdot \overrightarrow{AC}[/tex]
[tex]B(x,y) -A(x,y) = \frac{3}{4}\cdot [C(x,y)-A(x,y)][/tex]
[tex]B(x,y) = \frac{3}{4}\cdot C(x,y) +\frac{1}{4}\cdot A(x,y)[/tex]
[tex]B(x,y) = \frac{3}{4}\cdot (-6,-2)+\frac{1}{4}\cdot (6,-6)[/tex]
[tex]B(x,y) = (-3, -3)[/tex]
Cell phone Plan A costs$70 per month and comes with a free$500 phone. Cell phone Plan Bcosts$50 per month but does not come with a phone. If you buy the$500 phone and choose Plan B, how many months is it until your cost is the same as Plan A's?
Please answer WITHEXPLANATION!
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 70*M
B = 500 + 50*M
Costing the same means equal, so we have the equation:
70M = 500 + 50M
-50M -50M
20M = 500
20M / 20 = 500 / 20
m- 25 months

Given the definitions of f(x) and g(x) below, find the value of (g o f) (-3)
f(x)=2x^2+6x+9
g(x)=3x-6
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
(g o f) (-3) = g ( f(-3) )
First, let's find f(-3):
f(x)=2x²+6x+9
f(-3)=2(-3²)+6(-3)+9
f(-3)=18-18+9
f(-3)=9
Now that we know the value of f(-3), we can sub this into g(f(-3)):
g ( f(-3) ) = g(9)
Find g(9):
g(9)=3x-6
g(9)=3(9)-6
g(9)=27-6
g(9)=21
convert 2x + y = -1 to slope intercept form
Answer:
y=-2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Your goal from Standard form to slope intercept form is to have the x on the right side of the equal sign. All you have to do is subtract 2x from both sides and you end up with y= -2x-1
Cylinder A has radius r and height h as shown in the diagram. Cylinder B has radius 2r and height 2h. How many times greater is the surface area of Cylinder B than the surface area of Cylinder A?
I will ONLY give you a brainliest of you answer this questions CORRECTLY!
Answer:
Therefore, Cylinder B's surface area is four times greater than Cylinder A's surface area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh+2πr² = 2π(rh+r²)
Cylinder A = 2π(rh+r²)
Cylinder B = 2π((2r)(2h)+(2r)²) = 2π(4rh+4r²)=2π(4(rh+r²))
To find how many times greater Cylinder B's surface area is than Cylinder A's surface area, divide:
[tex]\frac{Cylinder B}{Cylinder A}[/tex]
=2π(4(rh+r²))/2π(rh+r²)
(divide top and bottom by 2π)
=4(rh+r²)/(rh+r²)
(divide top and bottom by (rh+r²))
=4
Therefore, Cylinder B's surface area is four times greater than Cylinder A's surface area.

what is 6/3 + (- 1/6)
Answer:
The answer to your problem is 1 5/6
Answer:
11/6
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to get a common denomintor in order to add fractions. Here you can multiply 6/3 by two to get 12/6. Then you can just do 12/6-1/6 since adding a negative number is the same as subtracting, leaving you with 11/6, which cannot be reduced so that is your final answer.
Given the following information, find the length of the missing side. Leave your answer as a simplified radical.
Answer:
Long = 5√3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypotenuse = 10
Short = 5
Long = ?
Apply Pythagorean theorem to find Long:
Long² = hyp² - short²
Long² = 10² - 5²
Long² = 100 - 25
Long² = 75
Long = √75
Long = √(25*3)
Long = 5√3

Pleaseee help is he right or wrong and why!!!
Answer:
No, Andre is not correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe Andre is not correct because each 1 on the left balances with a 1 on the right. So taking away the two 1s on the left only leaves the hanger balanced if two 1s are removed on the right. This leaves on the left and three 1s on the right, so x=3. This is like x+2=5 if you subtract 2 from the x side then you get x=3. Hope this helps!

What is the slope of the line?
Answer:
-7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
To find the slope of the line, get two points, and divide the change in y over the change in x. So, let's find two points.
(1,-3) and (-3,4)
Change in y: 4 - (-3) = 7 (Remember when you subtract a negative, you add)
Change in x: -3 - 1 = -4
7/-4 = -7/4
-7/4 is your slope.
I hope this helps :)
Factor out the greatest common monomial factor from polynomial. Show your work or explain your reasoning
Answer:
7(1 +3x)
