Answer:

(a) Engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

(b) Samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter

(c) Measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conform to engineering specifications.

(d) Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complement of a set refers to elements that does not exist in that set. It means what does not exist in the set but exist in the universal set.

(a) Engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

In this case, the Universal set is a set of engineers in full-time employment. The given set is for engineers with less than 36 months of full-time employment. The complement is engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

(b) Samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter

In this case, the universal set is a set of samples of cement block having compressive strength. The given set is a set of cement block having compressive strength less than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter. The complement is samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter.

(c) Measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conform to engineering specifications.

In this case, the universal set is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons. The given set is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that do not conform to engineering specifications. The complement is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conforms to engineering specification.

(d) Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

In this case, the universal set is a set of Cholesterol levels. The given set is Cholesterol levels that measure greater than 180 and less than 220. The complement is Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

Bones Brothers & Associates prepare individual tax returns. Over prior years, Bones Brothers have maintained careful records
madreJ [45]

Answer:

For this case we have the following info related to the time to prepare a return

\mu =90 , \sigma =14

And we select a sample size =49>30 and we are interested in determine the standard deviation for the sample mean. From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard deviation would be:

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{14}{\sqrt{49}}= 2

And the best answer would be

b. 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Solution to the problem

For this case we have the following info related to the time to prepare a return

\mu =90 , \sigma =14

And we select a sample size =49>30 and we are interested in determine the standard deviation for the sample mean. From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard deviation would be:

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{14}{\sqrt{49}}= 2

And the best answer would be

wariber [46]

Answer:

27m

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the Pythagorean Theorem.

20^2+18^2=c^2

400+324=c^2

724=c^2

take the square root of both sides

26.9m=c

to the nearest meter = 27
