If the sample mean is 51,sample size is 21 , sample standard deviation is 15 and confidence level is 95% then the lower bound is 45.35 and upper bound is 56.65.

Given sample mean of 51, sample size of 21, sample standard deviation be 15 and confidence level be 95%.

We are required to find the upper bound and lower bound.

We have to use t test as the sample size is less than 30.

Margin of error is the difference between calculated figures and real figures.

Margin of error= standard deviation* critical value of t

Critical value of t at 0.05 significance level with degree of freedom 20   [21-1] is 1.7247.

Margin of error=1.7247*15/4.5826

(4.5826 is the square root of 21)

=5.6454

Upper bound=51+5.6454

=56.6454

Lower bound=51-5.6454

=45.3546

After rounding off they will be 56.65 and 45.35.

Hence if the sample mean is 51,sample size is 21 , sample standard deviation is 15 and confidence level is 95% then the lower bound is 45.35 and upper bound is 56.65.

You deposit $4000 each year into an account earning 2% interest compounded annually. How much will you have in the account in 30 years?

Answers

The amount that will be in the account after 30 years is $162,272.32.

How much would be in the account after 30 years?

When an amount is compounded annually, it means that once a year, the amount deposited and the interest already accrued increases in value. Compound interest leads to a higher value of deposit when compared with simple interest, where only the amount deposited increases in value once a year.

The formula that can be used to determine the future value of the yearly deposit of $4,000 in 30 years is : annuity factor x yearly deposit

Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r

Where:

r = interest raten = number of years

$4000 x [{(1.02^30) - 1} / 0.02] = $162,272.32

Find the equation of a line with a slope of 13/2
that passes through the point (−2, — 10).

Answers

Answer:  [tex]y=\frac{13}{2} x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the point-slope equation which is [tex]y-y_{1} = m(x-x_{1} )[/tex]  where[tex](x_{1} , y_{1} )[/tex] is your point and [tex]m[/tex] is your slope.

Given that we substitute what you have:

[tex]y-(-10) =\frac{13}{2} (x - (-2))[/tex]

Minus and minus give us positive:

[tex]y+10 =\frac{13}{2} (x +2)[/tex]

Multiply slope into the parenthesis:

[tex]y+10= \frac{13}{2}x + \frac{13}{2}*2\\[/tex]

Calculate it:

[tex]y+10= \frac{13}{2}x +13[/tex]

Isolate the [tex]y[/tex] by subtracting 10 from both sides:

[tex]y=\frac{13}{2} x + 13 -10[/tex]

Your final equation is:

[tex]y=\frac{13}{2} x +3[/tex]

Triangle ABC is defined by the points A(3,8), B(7,5), and C(2,3). Create an equation for a line passing through point A and perpendicular to BC.​

Answers

The required equation for a line passing through point A and perpendicular to BC exists 2y + 5x = 31.

How to estimate the slope of the line?

First, we must obtain the slope of the line perpendicular to BC

Given the coordinates B(7,5), and C(2,3)

Get the slope BC, exists

[tex]$m_{BC} = \frac{3-5}{2-7}[/tex]

= -2/-5 = 2/5

The slope of the line perpendicular to BC will be -5/2.

The slope of the required line in point-slope form exists expressed as;

[tex]$y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)[/tex]

m = -5/2

[tex](x_0, y_0) = (3, 8)[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula we get

y - 8 = (-5/2)(x - 3)

2(y - 8) = (-5)(x - 3)

2y - 16 = (-5x + 15)

2y + 5x = 15 + 16

2y + 5x = 31

Therefore the required equation for a line passing through point A and perpendicular to BC exists 2y + 5x = 31.

The rules that define the piecewise function graphed are as follows:

y = x + 2, y = 5.

What is a piecewise function?

A piecewise function is a function that has different definitions, depending on the input.

In this problem, for x between 0 and 3, a linear function is given, with slope given as follows:

m = (5 - 2)/(3 - 0) = 1.

The y-intercept is of 2, as y = 2 when x = 0, hence the definition is:

[tex]y = x + 2, 0 \leq x \leq 3[/tex]

For x greater than 3, the function is constant at y = 5, hence the definition is:

y = 5, x > 3.

Hence, the rules that are used to define the piecewise function graphed are as follows:

The quantity of each concentrations of 3% and 9% needed to get the desired concentration is 54 milliliters and 27 milliliters respectively

Simultaneous equation

Let

Quantity of 3% needed = xQuantity of 9% needed = y

x + y = 81

0.03x + 0.09y = 81 × 5%

0.03x + 0.09y = 4.05

x + y = 81

0.03x + 0.09y = 4.05

From (1)

x = 81 - y

Substitute into

0.03x + 0.09y = 4.05

0.03(81 - y) + 0.09y = 4.05

2.43 - 0.03y + 0.09y = 4.05
