Sociologists studying the behavior of high school freshmen in a certain state collected data from a random sample of freshmen in

the population. They constructed the 90 percent confidence interval 6.46±0.416.46±0.41 for the mean number of hours per week spent by freshmen in extracurricular activities.
Assuming all conditions for inference are met, which of the following is a correct interpretation of the interval?

For all freshmen in the state, 90 percent of the freshmen spend between 6.05 hours and 6.87 hours per week in extracurricular activities.

A. The probability is 0.90 that the mean number of hours spent in extracurricular activities for freshmen in the sample is between 6.05 hours and 6.87 hours per week.

B. The probability is 0.90 that the mean number of hours spent in extracurricular activities for freshmen in the state is between 6.05 hours and 6.87 hours per week.

C. We are 90 percent confident that the mean number of hours spent in extracurricular activities for freshmen in the sample is between 6.05 hours and 6.87 hours per week.

D. We are 90 percent confident that the mean number of hours spent in extracurricular activities for freshmen in the state is between 6.05 hours and 6.87 hours per week.

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

A percent confident interval is usually say that we agree **%** confident that the true population mean lies in between **interval** thus making E the best answer because it follows that format and has the population (freshmen in the state) rather than the sample (freshmen in the sample)

If 8 identical blackboards are to be divided among 4 schools,how many divisions are possible? How many, if each school mustrecei
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

There are 165 ways to distribute the blackboards between the schools. If at least 1 blackboard goes to each school, then we only have 35 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, this is a problem of balls and sticks. The 8 identical blackboards can be represented as 8 balls, and you assign them to each school by using 3 sticks. Basically each school receives an amount of blackboards equivalent to the amount of balls between 2 sticks: The first school gets all the balls before the first stick, the second school gets all the balls between stick 1 and stick 2, the third school gets the balls between sticks 2 and 3 and the last school gets all remaining balls.

 The problem reduces to take 11 consecutive spots which we will use to localize the balls and the sticks and select 3 places to put the sticks. The amount of ways to do this is {11 \choose 3} = 165 . As a result, we have 165 ways to distribute the blackboards.

If each school needs at least 1 blackboard you can give 1 blackbooard to each of them first and distribute the remaining 4 the same way we did before. This time there will be 4 balls and 3 sticks, so we have to put 3 sticks in 7 spaces (if a school takes what it is between 2 sticks that doesnt have balls between, then that school only gets the first blackboard we assigned to it previously). The amount of ways to localize the sticks is {7 \choose 3} = 35. Thus, there are only 35 ways to distribute the blackboards in this case.

mafiozo [28]

The correct answer is B. No, the wording of the question makes respondents more likely to say water, even if they may actually prefer soda at a meal.

Explanation:

One important factor when designing questions in research is to avoid any language that might influence the answers of respondents. This recommendation was not followed in the question "Eating too many sugary foods leads to cavities. Would you rather have soda or water served with your meal?" because mentioning sugary foods, which includes soda, leads to cavities will make respondents consider soda is negative and they are more likely to choose water. This implies the wording in the question influences respondents and introduces bias, which is inappropriate. Thus, the correct answer is B.

What is the volume of the pyramid?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

16\sqrt{3} cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question missed key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the orginal one. Please have a look at the attached photo,

<em>A solid oblique pyramid has an equilateral triangle as a base with an edge length of 4StartRoot 3 EndRoot cm and an area of 12StartRoot 3 EndRoot cm2. </em>

<em>What is the volume of the pyramid?</em>

My answer:

As we know, The volume of a pyramid = \frac{1}{3}base area × its height

Given:

  • Side lenght of the base is; 4\sqrt{3} cm

=> The area of the base is 12\sqrt{3} cm^{2}

  • In Δ ACB measure of angle ACB is 90° and m∠ CAB is 30°

We use: tan(30) = \frac{BC}{AC}

<=> BC = 4\sqrt{3}*tan(30)

= 4 cm

And BC is the height of the the pyramid

=> The volume of a pyramid = \frac{1}{3} 12\sqrt{3} cm^{2} * 4 cm

= 16\sqrt{3} cm^{3}
