Find the critical value (tα/2) for a 99% confidence interval if the sample size is 15. Round your answer to three decimal places.



tα/2 =

Answers

Answer 1

The critical value (tα/2) for a 99% confidence interval for the sample size 15 is 2.977 .

We have to find the critical value tα/2 for 99% confidence interval, we are given the sample size.

First we will find the alpha value to get the critical value.

=100%-99%

=1-0.99

=0.01

α=0.01

α/2=0.01/2

α/2=0.005

degrees of freedom(df)= n-1=15-1=14

We will use degrees of freedom and α/2 values to find the critical value that is tα/2.

By using the t table we get the critical value  of tα/2=2.977.

Therefore, the critical value for 99% confidence interval with sample size 15 is 2.977.

One half of a number increased by a second number equals 5. One half of the first number decreased by the second number equals 1. Find the two numbers.

Answers

let the first no. is 'a'

second no. is 'b'

so from the statement, One half of a number increased by a second number equals 5.

[tex]\frac{a}{2}+b=5[/tex]

and One half of the first number decreased by the second number equals 1.

[tex]\frac{a}{2}-b=1[/tex]

put a= 6 in first equation

Shay's net pay is $575.50 biweekly. If her gross annual income is$17,500, how much is deducted from each paycheck?a. $153.67b. $2,537c. $97.58d. $3,688

Answers

a. $157.67

Explanation:

>> net income (total amount without the taxes etc...)

. biweekly = $575.50

. per month = $575.50 * 2 = $1,151 (~since it happens 2 times per month)

. per year = $1,151 * 12 = $13,812

>> gross income (total amount with the taxes etc...)

. per year = $17,500

>> amount deducted (~going to taxes etc...)

. per year = $17,500 - $13,812 = $3,688

. per month = $3,688 / 12 =~ $307.33

. per paycheck = $307.33 / 2 =~ $153.67

Find x and the measure of angle 1

Answers

The measure of angle 1 is 42° . Angles Central angles can be expressed as Central angle = (Arc length 360o)/(2r) degrees or Central angle = Arc length/r radians, where r is the radius of the circle.

What is meant by angle?When two straight lines or rays intersect at a common endpoint, an angle is formed. An angle's vertex exists as the familiar point of contact. Angle is derived from the Latin word angelus, which means "corner." An angle is formed when two line segments are joined at a single point, or when two line segments meet at a common endpoint. This common point is known as the angle's vertex, and the two line segments are known as the angle's sides or arms. Acute angle, Obtuse angle, Right angle, Straight angle, reflex angle, and full rotation are the names of basic angles. An angle is a geometrical shape formed by connecting the ends of two rays.

∴  The measure of angle 1 is 42°

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the amount of money Eric earns per week

Let the amount earned be n

Now, to get the value earned, we have to subtract the value he had before from what he has now or simply add what he had before to what he earned now and equate to his total balance now

Graph 1(90°,0)(FGHJ).Which graph below shows the preimage FGHJ and the image F'G'H''?

Answers

Given the figure FGHJ with coordinates

F(0, 5), G(-5, 1), H(5, -7) and J(6, 4)

When we rotate a figure of 90 degrees clockwise, each point of the given figure has to be changed from (x, y) to (y, -x) and graph the rotated figure.

Therefore, for clockwise rotation, the coordinates of the image of FGHJ becomes

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ F(0, 5)}\to\text{ F'(5, 0)} \\ \text{ G(-5,}1)\to\text{ G'(1, 5)} \\ \text{ H(5, -7)}\to\text{ H'(-7, -5)} \\ \text{ J(6, 4)}\to\text{ J'(4, -6)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

When we rotate a figure of 90 degrees anti-clockwise, each point of the given figure has to be changed from (x, y) to (-y, x) and graph the rotated figure.

Therefore, the anti-clockwise rotation the coordinates of the image of FGHJ becomes

Answers

The interest she pays over 4 weeks is #5000 and the interest she pays per week is #1250.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

A woman borrows #20 000 for 4 weeks.

She agrees to pay #25 000 back at the end of the 4 weeks.

Now, we will subtract the borrowed amount from the amount paid after 4 weeks to find the interest paid after 4 weeks.

(a) Interest paid over 4 weeks = #(25000-20000)

Interest paid over 4 weeks = #5000

(b) Now, we can easily find the interest paid per week by the interest paid over 4 weeks by the total number of weeks.

Interest paid per week = Interest paid in 4 weeks/4

Interest paid per week = 5000/4

Interest paid per week = #1250

Hence, the answers to part a is #5000 and the answer to part b is #1250.

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then, their slopes are negative reciprocal

so

the slope of the altitude that passes through C is -1/2

y=mx+b

we have

m=-1/2

point C(6,0)

substitute

b=3

equation is y=-(1/2)x+3 -------> equation 1

step 2

Find out the slope BC

m=-2/3

so

the slope of the altitude that passes through A is 3/2

Find out the equation of the altitude that passes through A

A simple random sample can be defined as a subset of items that are selected from a larger data set or statistical population, with each member of the subset having an equal or the same probability (chance) of being selected.

This ultimately implies that, each member of the subset are selected by chance and randomly, and as such a simple random sample is an unbiased representation of a larger data set or a statistical population.
