Dr. Spike is a big fan of Bojangles and is particularly interested in the popularity of its celebrated wings dinner. Starting fr

om January, he would visit the local Bojangles on randomly selected days. Upon each visit, he would ask the manager how many wings dinners were sold on the previous day. By the end of March, he had visited Bojangles for a total of 31 times and thus collected 31 sale records of wings dinners. It was found that the sample mean was 26.2 sales with a sample standard deviation of 12.8. He would like to use this information to estimate the average number of wings dinner sold per day between January and March using a confidence interval. (This particular Bojangles sold 10725 wings dinners last year, but Dr. Spike does not know this.)
Which of the following facts is not relevant for evaluating whether or not a confidence interval for the mean number of wings dinners sold per day can be calculated using this data? Select one:

a. The number of sampled days is 32, which is a sufficient sample size for the confidence interval to be meaningful.
b. The days he visited were randomly selected, so the sample is representative of the population.
c. Since three sample standard deviations below the sample mean is negative (26.2-3*12.8 = -12.2), the distribution of wings dinner sales is positively skewed, and therefore not normal so the confidence interval will not be meaningful.
d. All of the above statements are relevant.

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

If the data is skewed, it indicates a disparity in spread between the upper and lower halves. In this case, there’s insufficient evidence to assert that the data is centered around the mean or has outliers. Hence, we cannot conclude that the distribution of wings dinner sales is abnormal.

Using the extended Euclidean algorithm, find the multiplicative inverse of a. 1234 mod 4321 b. 24140 mod 40902
AnnZ [12381]

(a) The multiplicative inverse of 1234 (mod 4321) is x so that 1234*x ≡ 1 (mod 4321). We can apply Euclid's algorithm:

4321 = 1234 * 3 + 619

1234 = 619 * 1 + 615

619 = 615 * 1 + 4

615 = 4 * 153 + 3

4 = 3 * 1 + 1

Now we will express 1 as a linear combination of 4321 and 1234:

1 = 4 - 3

1 = 4 - (615 - 4 * 153) = 4 * 154 - 615

1 = 619 * 154 - 155 * (1234 - 619) = 619 * 309 - 155 * 1234

1 = (4321 - 1234 * 3) * 309 - 155 * 1234 = 4321 * 309 - 1082 * 1234

This reduces to

1 ≡ -1082 * 1234 (mod 4321)

Thus, the inverse is

-1082 ≡ 3239 (mod 4321)

(b) Since both 24140 and 40902 are even, their GCD cannot equal 1, indicating no inverse exists.

Assume that the playbook contains 9 passing plays and 15 running plays. The coach randomly selects 8 plays from the playbook. Wh
Zina [12379]
<span>The outcome = probability of choosing exactly 2, 3, 4, or 5 passing plays. The probability of selecting exactly two passing plays is given by: (8C2)*(9*8)* (15*14*13*12*11*10) /(26*28*.....19) where: 8C2 represents the combinations of choosing two from 8 and probability that the first passing play is selected = 9/26 probability that the second passing play is chosen = 10/25, and so forth you can similarly calculate the other three scenarios and sum them to find the total probability.</span>
