The birth weights of newborn babies in the United States follow a normal distribution with a mean of 3.4 kg and a standard deviation of 0.6 kg. Researchers interested in studying how children gain weight decide to take random samples of 100 newborn babies and calculate the sample mean birth weight for each sample. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3.4 kg

0.06 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Birthweight follows a normal distribution :

Mean weighf (m) = 3.4 kg

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.6 kg

Sample size (n) = 100 new born babies

calculate the sample mean birth weight for each sample. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution

The sample mean birth weight = population mean birth weight for a normal distribution according to the central Limit theorem.

Hence, sample mean birth weight = 3.4kg

Standard deviation of sampling distribution = standard error = σ/√n

0.6 / √100

= 0.6 / 10

= 0.06 kg

Answer 2

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that:

The mean is of 3.4 kg.The standard deviation is of 0.06 kg.

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.

In this problem:

Mean of 3.4 kg, hence [tex]\mu = 3.4[/tex].Standard deviation of 0.6 kg, hence [tex]\sigma = 0.6[/tex].Samples of 100, hence [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{0.6}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.06[/tex]

Hence, the mean of the sampling distribution is of 3.4 kg and the standard deviation is of 0.06 kg.

Quadratic functions q and ware graphed on the same coordinate grid.
The vertex of the graph of g is 18 units below the vertex of the graph of w.
Which pair of functions could have been used to create the graphs of q and w?

Answers

Answer:q(x)=18x^2 and W(X) = x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair of functions that used for developing the graph of g and w is [tex]q(x)=18x^2\ and\ W(X) = x^2[/tex]

What is the vertex of the parabola?

The vertex of a parabola should be the point where the parabola crosses its axis of symmetry. In the case when the coefficient of the x2 term is positive, so the vertex will be the lowest point on the graph.

Since The vertex of the graph of g is 18 units below the vertex of the graph of w so the above functions should be considered.

Therefore, The pair of functions that used for developing the graph of g and w is [tex]q(x)=18x^2\ and\ W(X) = x^2[/tex]

44.8 is what percent of 160?

Answers

Answer:

28% .................

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

100%/x%=160/44.8

(100/x)*x=(160/44.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=3.5714285714286*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.5714285714286) to get x

100/3.5714285714286=x

28=x

x=28

now we have:

44.8 is 28% of 160

A bag contains 6 red apples and 6 yellow apples. A sample of 3 apples is drawn. Find the probability that the sample contains more red than yellow apples

Answers

Answer: 21/44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Bag contains :

6 red apples

6 yellow apples

Number of samples drawn = 3

Probability that sample contains more red than yellow :

Then from the three samples, red = 2 and yellow = 1 or red for all 3

Prob of RRR = (6/12)(5/11)(4/10)= 120 / 1320

Prob RRY = (6/12)(5/11)(6/10)= 150/1320

Prob RYR is (6/12)(6/11)(5/10)= 180/1320

Prob YRR is (6/12)(6/11)(5/10)=180/1320

120/1320 + 150/1320 + 180/1320 +. 180/1320 = 630/1320 =126/264 = 42/88 = 21/44

Given log3 4 = 1.262 and log3 7 = 1.771, what is the value of log3 (7/16)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =-0.753[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the laws of log()

[tex]log_x(\frac{a}{b}) =log_x(a)-log_x(b)[/tex]

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =log_3(7)-log_3(16)[/tex]

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =log_3(7)-log_3(4^2)[/tex]  you can move exponent outside of log()

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =log_3(7)-2log_3(4)[/tex]  

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =(1.771)-2(1.262)[/tex]

[tex]log_3(\frac{7}{16}) =-0.753[/tex]

The required value of log₃ (7/16) is 0.753 which is determined by properties of logarithms.

What are the properties of logarithms?

There are four basic properties of logarithms:

logₐ(xy) = logₐx + logₐy.

logₐ(x/y) = logₐx - logₐy.

logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐx.

logₐx = logₓa / logₓb.

The functions of logarithmic are given in the question

log₃ 4 = 1.262 and log₃ 7 = 1.771

We have to determine the value of log₃ (7/16)

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = log₃ 7 - log₃ 16

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = log₃ 7 - log₃ 4²

Using property of logarithm logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐx.

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = log₃ 7 - 2 log₃ 4

Substitute the values of log₃ 4 = 1.262 and log₃ 7 = 1.771 in the above equation,

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = 1.771 - 2(1.262)

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = 1.771 - 2.524

⇒ log₃ (7/16) = 0.753

Therefore, the required value of log₃ (7/16) is 0.753.

She calculates a linear correlation coefficient of r= 0.9972. The mean Temperature is 83.8959 degrees Fahrenheit with a standard deviation of 11.2921 Degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

a ≈ - 136

b = 2.46

Step-by-step explanation:

A) we apply the formula for slope in regression

b = r * [tex]\frac{Sy}{Sx}[/tex]   --------- ( 1 )

where:

standard deviation (Sy)  = 27.8913

standard deviation ( Sx ) = 11.2921

Linear correlation coefficient ( r ) = 0.9972

substitute given values into equation 1

b = 2.46

for intercept A

a = Y - b * X  --------- ( 2 )

Mean number of ice bags sold ( Y )= 70.2873

b = 2.46

Mean temperature ( X )= 83.8959

substitute given values into equation 2

a = 70.2873 - ( 2.46 * 83.8959 )

  = - 135.997
