Answer 1
Answer:

Approximately normal with mean is $206,274 and standard deviation is $3,788 and this can be determined by applying the central limit theorem.

Given :

  • There were 5,317 previously owned homes sold in a western city in the year 2000.
  • The distribution of the sales prices of these homes was strongly right-skewed, with a mean of $206,274 and a standard deviation of $37,881.
  • Simple random samples of size 100.

According to the central limit theorem the approximately normal mean is $206274.

Now, to determine the approximately normal standard deviation, use the below formula:

s =(\sigma )/(√(n) )   ---- (1)

where 's' is the approximately normal standard deviation, 'n' is the sample size, and \sigma is the standard deviation.

Now, put the known values in the equation (1).

s = (37881)/(√(100) )

s = 3788.1

\rm s \approx 3788

So, the correct option is A).

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

(A) Approximately normal with mean $206,274 and standard deviation $3,788

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = (\sigma)/(√(n)).

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Population:

Right skewed

Mean $206,274

Standard deviation $37,881.

Sample:

By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normal.

Mean $206,274

Standard deviation s = (37881)/(√(100)) = 3788.1

So the correct answer is:

(A) Approximately normal with mean $206,274 and standard deviation $3,788

Answer:

20.9 is the answer because To round 20.86 to the nearest tenth consider the hundredths’ value of 20.86, which is 6 and equal or more than 5. Therefore, the tenths value of 20.86 increases by 1 to 9. 20.86 rounded to the nearest tenth = 20.9

1.) The island shown has a population of 12,175 people. Find the populationdensity in people per square kilometer.

18.5 km

11.1 km

Answers

Answer:

Population density = 148.22\ \text{people per square kilometer}

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached figure shows the dimension of an island.

Population density is equal to total population per unit land area.

Firstly we will find the area of the triangle using Pythagoras theorem as follows :

H^2=B^2+P^2

H is Hypotenuse, B is base and P is perpendicular

B=√(H^2-P^2) \n\nB=√((18.5)^2-(11.1)^2) \n\nB=14.8\ km

Area of triangle is given by :

A=(1)/(2)* b* P\n\nA=(1)/(2)* 14.8* 11.1\n\nA=82.14\ km^2

\text{Population density}=\frac{\text{Total population}}{\text{land area}}\n\n=(12175 )/(82.14)\n\n=148.22\ \text{people per square kilometer}

Hence, the population density is 148.22\ \text{people per square kilometer}.

The value of X=37

hope this helps :)

X= 12^2 + 35^2

= √1369

= 37

Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:   a²+b²=c², with a and b being the 2 shortest sides of the triangle, and c being the longest.

a²     b²       c²

12² + 35² = 1369

Once you have c², you need to find the square root of c² to get c.

The square root of 1369 is 37. c=37
