Answer: point estimate = 3.88
Margin of error = 0.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval is written in the form,
(Point estimate - margin of error, Point estimate + margin of error)
The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean. Let m represent the margin of error. Since the confidence interval is given as (3.25 , 4.51), it means that
x - m = 3.25
x + m = 4.51
Adding both equations, it becomes
2x = 7.76
x = 7.76/2
x = 3.88
Substituting x = 3.88 into x + m = 4.51, it becomes
3.88 + m = 4.51
m = 4.51 - 3.88
m = 0.63
Well maybe you need to redo the question
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that Kaitlyn solved is as follows :
-5.4+x=12.2
The steps to solve it as follows :
Step 1. Add 5.4 to both sides,
-5.4+x+5.4=12.2+5.4
Step 2. 5.4 will cancel out as both have opposite signs
x=17.6
But Kaitlyn solved it as :
5.4.x=6.8
She has multiplied -5.4 and x which is wrong. The correct answer is 17.6.
Answer: The ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are not congruent by SAS.
Explanation:
It is given that the VX = WZ = 40 cm and ∠ZVX = ∠XWZ = 22°.
Draw a figure as shown below,
According to the SAS rule of congruence, two triangles are congruent if two sides and their inclined angle is equal.
From the given figure it is easily noticed that in ΔVZX and ΔWXZ,
(given)
(given)
(common side)
Since we have two sides and one angle is same. but we can not conclude that the ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are congruent by SAS, because the given angle is not the inclined angle of both equal sides.
Therefore, the ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are not congruent by SAS.
